Should your child's English teacher speak fluent English?

A French teacher speaks fluent French, right? A Russian teacher speaks fluent Russian. A Spanish teacher speaks fluent Spanish. So, logically, an English teacher must speak English, right? Who thinks the Obama administration will agree with this one?

Arizona Seeks to Reassign Heavily Accented Teachers http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/05 ... -teachers/

After passing the nation's toughest state immigration enforcement law, Arizona's officials are now cracking down on teachers with heavy accents.

The Arizona Department of Education is sending evaluators to audit teachers and their English speaking skills to make sure districts are complying with state and federal laws.

Teachers who are not fluent in English, have a heavy accent or do not speak grammatically correct will be temporarily reassigned.

Sounds fair to me but I don't think liberals will agree.
