"They are as entitled to their freedom of expression as Robertson is to his.

OH REALLY!?!

So, I guess that means that if they choose to rise during Phil's speech and masturbate, that's their right given your interpretation of 'free speech?'

The level of personal extravagance would be hard to comprehend for most people who don’t get to see the materialistic side of these “poor scholars”. You’ll never see news stories about them living large.

Three faculty members walked out of the Louisiana Tech University commencement ceremony Saturday to show their disdain for alumnus Phil Robertson.

And? Why is this considered news? If the faculty members chose to walk out, that's their privilege. But they should remember that God is not mocked.

I want tenure at my job!

No, you can't have it! The next next thing you'll want will be taking the summer off. And then a sabbatical. /sarc

They knew Robertson would be speaking when they chose to attend so they attended with the intent of making a statement.

Q stands for questioning? I did not know that. I thought it was for Queer. LOL.

Yes, even in the Deep South college faculties are mostly dominated by radical leftists. If you want them to have a Marxist-free and devt-free education, send your kids to Hard Work U (College of the Ozarks):

I think I would have started by saying,

You would think that last letter is covered by the previous three, but I guess they wanted to drive the point home.

I’ve also seen an extended version, which is “LGBTQIA”. I have no clue what the IA stands for in that version of the sexual identity peoples.

Give them time, they will be up to 56 different combinations, just as the Facebook people are, LOL.

Another fine example of liberal tolerance and open-mindedness.

If I were Robertson I would consider it an honor to make liberals walk out. It means he’s being effective. I don’t even want to share the same air in the room they are in.

“What is the Q?”

If it were up to me, the “Q” would still stand for Queer.

> I’ve heard of LBGT....Lesbian, Bisexual, Gay, Transgender.

What is LBGTQ? What is the Q?

Probably any other freak they can put under their belt...
