It is disgusting how teachers are being targeted during this witch hunt. All state and county workers should be drug-tested, including politicians. Gov. Linda Lingle should take a drug test as a show of support for the teachers. Both of my parents were teachers, and I can't imagine their privacy being violated in such a way. No pay increase is worth your dignity. Lindsay Furuya Honolulu - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
