A liberal University of Iowa sex professor has a message for the school's conservatives: F--- YOU!

Professor Ellen Lewin said as much in a response to a mass email from a campus Republican group promoting "Conservative Coming Out Week."

In the email on Monday morning, the UI College Republicans called for conservatives in Iowa City to "come out of the closet" and promote right-wing values that week.

The events included a screening of the 2002 film "Journey's with George," in honor of George W. Bush, a "Red vs. Blue" kickball game and blood drive and an "Animal Rights BBQ."

Less than one minute after the email was sent, Lewin fired back a blistering response: "F-YOU, REPUBLICANS."

Once more. Never teach cows to type.

[samtheman]

Maybe she objects to George Bush being called a conservative.

[monocle]

She gives Helen Thomas serious competition.

[pingman]

Well; an “animal rights BBQ” is a bit insensitive. And yummy.

[Robert Drobot]

I know that I do !!!

What is a sex professor?

More isn’t worth the bandwidth.

[Hardraade]

Sex professor? Wth is that?

I understand now that my college days were hopelessly deprived. Or perhaps not.

Sex professor? Wth is that?

"Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach."

Eh, free speech works both ways. She is obviously a member of the perpetually offended class, but she has given them oodles of free publicity. If this were a story about the university censoring the Republicans I'd be concerned, but as it is, this is just vigorous free speech and the prof lost a public debate by losing her cool.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Satire can’t be written anymore. Real life is just too strange and demented.

[WayneS]

Good one!

[FightforFreedomCA]

Hilarious!

[SMARTY]

Stupid TOO.

‘She also asked the group not to send mass emails in the future.’

Now she want to use HE OWN offense to curtail free speech of the Republicans on campus???

[Venturer]

She is a sex professor?

Not to mention that college kids do not need a sex professor, this one couldn’t get laid in a mens prison.

College tuition is going through the roof because colleges are filled with professors who teach course’s in bullspit things like sex.

I wish for extremely bad luck and horrific life experiences for the carcass carrying that demon.
