A little background here, the Teacher was featured in O'Keefe's Teacher Gone Wild video on youtube, the woman featured in the story used the "N" word, I've gone through every response so far on this thread and I see no outrage about the "N" word being used YET I see a lot of anger about O'Keefe and Christie, and in the story linked in the OP the Star Ledger doesn't mention the word used until the bottom of the article. Political Correctness is loved by the left UNTIL it's turned on them, and as you can see in this thread the "N" word is perfectly acceptable if the person suspended is in a union and if the person filming the video and the Governor are Republican.

1. Crass politicians are taking the lead.

And it is shameful that some here at DU support the relentless anti-union crusade against teachers in the move to privatize schools and corporatize American education.
Looking for the outrage over the N word being used?

Perhaps this lowlife move by an outright fascist will wake people up to the dangerous crap they are spouting about teachers and unions. I doubt it, but I can hope a little...
Still looking for the outrage at the N word being used?

17. I think that NJ will regret very, very much having elected that pompous ass as their governor. Updated at 3:05 PM

I don't even live in NJ and I regret their voting in Christie.
The fact that he did not immediately disavow ANYTHING with the O'Keefe named attached to it, just shows what a truly stench-filled piece of crap he is.
I hope hope hope that he ends up at the short of the stick...and soon!!!
and still no outrage at the N word being used?

35. O'Keefe is a piece of dog shit. My apologies to any dogs out there.
Seriously, where's the frigging outrage at the N word being used?
