The Heat is On

I was browsing and read this article from washingtonpost.com: Teachers' Chief Is in the Hot Seat by Bill Turque.

You can tell that the relationship between WTU President George Parker and Chancellor Michelle Rhee is entering a new level. If sweet-nothing exchanges between them did not attract the union members, try this approach:

Asked whether Rhee is a visionary, Parker paused.

"I think she's young. And she's not had experience in running a large urban school district," he said. "Accordingly, she is going to make mistakes." Most significant among them, Parker said, was sowing fear among teachers.
Hmmm... Real or surreal?
