Not all retirees agree with RTC leader
To the Editor:
[Retired Teachers Chapter Leader] Tom Murphy should have taken Mark Twain’s advice to just “keep your mouth shut.” He forgets [in his RTC column] that the UFT should have some semblance of fairness since it is not yet a mouth piece for the Democratic Party. Or is it?
His item is insulting to those of us retirees who do not agree with his political views.
Why doesn’t he stop trying to be cute? It’s very offensive; it also alienates members of the chapter.
