Union president caught bullying

  Grossly obese Chicago Teachers' Union president Karen Lewis is angry with Breitbart (aren't they all) because his website and Kyle Olson publicized a video in which she bullies the Department of Education Secretary Arne Duncan, also from Chicago, for his lisp, claiming that he would have lost that lisp if he had gone to public school.
  She attacks Duncan because he has none of those great education courses and claims he's the equivalent of janitor being appointed head physician.
  Sweeping the stage majestically and repeatedly across the stage in dreadlocks and floor length coat with generous underarm exposure, Lewis brags about how she has never been in danger of being fired in her career, presumably because of union rules and affirmative action.
  The video was already on YouTube, but since Big Government publicized it, Lewis claims it is right wingers who are picking on her. She also brags about drug use.
  Her "apology" for the insulting remarks is a mish mash of "teachers always get a bad rap," an appeal for the poor children and an admission that she was inappropriate. Here's the part referring to the mean right wingers who "edited" the video (which means cut it down to a very offensive segment, easier to watch and more likely to be seen).
“As you know, neo-conservative, anti-labor and anti-public education bloggers -- with a history of distorting and misrepresenting the truth -- seized the opportunity to create a pseudo- firestorm around my comments in order to distract from our work at the Chicago Teachers Union. One such blogger created a viral video, edited for dramatic effect, and then distributed his skewed video to the media and others in the blogosphere in an attempt to smear my character.
  She's being held accountable for abominable, unprofessional behavior and she doesn't like it. Too bad.
