Republican wants no single pregnant teachers

Colin, you are attempting to make my arguements in to absolutes, and that is not the case here. It is clear that there is no way to limit who can be a teacher based on their maritial or child bearing status. It isn't a question of "liberal" or "conservative", but just a little common sense from someone who is PAIDED to make the laws.

We are not near the line. We are not in some grey area. We are not even close. There are endlessly long protections against job descrimination, hiring and firing of pregnant women, etc. It isn't new law, it isn't some hidden secret.

This guy is ignorantly attempting to force his PERSONAL moral values onto his state by using his PUBLIC position to advocate something that is CLEARLY, ENTIRELY, and WITHOU ANY DOUBT going to violated this teacher's rights in any number of ways.

It's a waste of time, it's a waste of effort, it's a waste of public money, and it's an ignorant thing for someone to do who should know better.
