that insures the teachers in Wisconsin? Now that makes this situation much more understandable. The union does not want to lose the right to bargain over benefits because they will lose the right to continue to soak the Wisconsin public schools with an expensive health insurance plan. I guess the adage is true - follow the money!

Quote from the article:
WEA Trust, a union-affiliated insurance company, has an unfair advantage in Wisconsin’s public school insurance market, and uses that advantage to soak every penny possible from local school coffers.

I'll Pray for You
Have you heard this song?
I pray your brakes go out running down a hill
I pray a flowerpot falls from a window sill and knocks you in the
head like I'd like to
I pray your birthday comes and nobody calls
I pray you're flying high when your engine stalls
I pray all your dreams never come true
Just know wherever you are honey, I pray for you.
Our pastor used that as the springboard for a sermon about how we are supposed to pray for one another and how we are supposed to see one another, really. The congregation got a kick out of the song - we can all identify with those feelings toward people who have hurt us or whom we find difficult. But the point of our pastor's sermon was not just that we are to pray for all those difficult people in our lives. We are also to pray for ourselves - that we will come to see these difficult people as He does, as his precious children that he died for.
Peace!
