Australian Teachers Try To Shut Down Website
DeathElk writes "New South Wales teachers are attempting to have a website based in the United States closed down due to "defamatory" content. The site in question encourages students to rate teachers at their school, which obviously results in some colorful content. Now the story has hit the media, with some insightful quotes such as "The president of the NSW Secondary Principals Council, Jim McAlpine, said the Federal Government should block access to 'scurrilous American websites'."
I for one welcome our totalitarian overlords and look forward to the human rights abuses to follow...
all hail demi-god-king Howard.

I think I would be a bad teacher, since I gave too much on certain topics but maybe it'll motivate them teachers *grin*

...we're voting to keep the worst ones out.
I wish that was the case compared to my belief that most are trying to vote themselves a bigger share of the government pie. I see many crooked politicians "serve" many terms because they bring home the bacon. Self interest is what got us where we are today. I believe the the politicos reflect that rather well.
What?
That's funny, I remember right before the last presidental election in the US, Osama bin Laden came on and was all like "I'm Osama bin Laden, and I support Anyone But Bush".
I swear to God, that man is working for the Republicans.
It's been a long time.
