"Liberals are smarter." The Houston Comical, the only daily paper in one of the nation's 5 largest cities, routinely runs letters and idiotorials that make exactly this claim.
If liberals are so smart why did they ignore all of the signs that "Uncle Joe" Stalin was an evil tyrant who killed more people than Adolph Hitler?

And of course everyone knows UNLV is a bastion of cutting edge intellectual activity (sarcasm "off"!) It doesn't matter if they are or not. This professor is a good example of how the corruption of liberalism infects the entire academic community, from the halls of Harvard, to the pits of. . . UNLV.
It's everywhere.

The liberal ideology that is Political Correctness needs no justification. If you oppose the left's way of thinking you are an idiot. You are a racist. You are a homophobe. You hate the environment (at your own peril). You are a sexist. You are greedy. You are selfish...
Marx: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
How can you eat meat when that requires killing an animal that must be raised on land and feed crops that are only grown to feed doomed animals. Besides it's a "proven" fact that eating meat is tied to the oppression of women.
Why is it okay to kill an infant in the womb but not alright to eat a chicken egg?
Why is it alright to kill an infant out of "efficiency" but not alright to execute a guilty man for the horrendous crimes he has committed?
Why is it that the "diversity" crowd embraces homosexuals when they cannot even tolerate being intimate with a member of the opposite sex?

Here is the e-mail I just sent him and his reply that came back just a few minutes later:
Where is the documentation to back-up your assertion? If you don't have any you are a fraud and now everyone knows it.
Except for liberals who will continue to delude themselves.
Oh well, continue living in your isolated little academic world where everyone agrees with you.
Hey, at least us conservatives can get a date to the prom.
His reply:
Thank you for your interest, and for sharing your viewpoints.
Sincerely,
Ted G. Jelen
Yep, he's a genius alright.
To: keysguy
It is more complicated than that. Liberalism recruits many of the brightest students because it plays to their egos and their sense that smart people like them should run the world.
Liberalism's elitism is very intoxicating and appealing stuff for many bright students, very much like the Dark Side is for would-be Jedi in Star Wars.
Of course, the reality is that many of the brightest minds in politics and law today are conservatives like Laura Ingraham, Antonin Scalia, Thomas Sowell, and Walter Williams. Of course, Thomas Sowell was an angry Marxist when he was young, so perhaps that partly explains the problem.

Too dumb? I'm sure my friend who did his post-doc (UConn)work under one of the leaders in cancer research at Sloane-Kettering and is now employed as a research chemist at Eli Lilly and is very conservative would agree...yep...

"The Republican Party has taken some outrageous positions on issues like abortion..." Okay, so killing helpless, innocent little babies in their mothers' wombs is not outrageous -- not killing them is?

..why so few Republicans seem to inhabit academic environment...Its because Republicans can make more money working for themselves and off the public teat. Without government subsidy and welfare, Democrats would starve and that includes a good many college Professors.
If Republicans are slope-browed troglodytes then Democrats are Round mouthed flat nosed penis suckers. The flat nose is evolutionary response to his actions as evidenced by this UNLV Professor's physical profile.

The leftists say the Republican party is the party of the rich.
Then the leftists say the Republican party is the party of the stupid.
So can someone explain to me, how does a stupid person become rich?

The other day my husband was flipping through channels and MTV (yes, you read right. I know it's odd)... MTV was doing a report about how there are more and more of a conservative movement on campuses. They talked about those who crashed the anti-war demonstrations. They never mentioned Freerepublic by name, though.

Dear professor....I now have another reason to support cutting the academic budget....

He did his MA and PHd at the same school which is a big red flag. It means he probably didn't get accepted at another school for his PHd and decided to stick it out at OSU.

The reason so many liberals dominate academe is because they are not capable of making a living in the real world. Academe was once the home of some intellectual giants (Einstein, Fermi, etc.), but the Left took over and created a haven for incompetent and intellectually challenged fellow-travelers, who, once attaining tenure, need not even show up for work, but are still guaranteed a hefty salary and an attractive retiremnent. It is socialism writ large.
To: Nevadan
Jelen projected his complaint about conservative "positions on issues like abortion and free speech," while many left/liberal teachers and administrators use illegal methods to attack their conservative acquaintances' speech.
Have a look at one book being read/distributed to students by Pub. Ed. now (fifth grade in one instance known to me), and see what kind of behavior is being taught to children. A glimpse of what it's really about starts with the Publishers Weekly review.
