Here I am again!

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the ping!

Ah! The cavalry is here, but the troll's not responding. I was a little bit late in catching his COMMUNIST CRAP, but you can read it in post 216 for laughs.

Thanks for coming.

[superskunk]

Hey Troll! I'm a Republican! Mice are Democrats!

Where are you at on the food chain?

This repeats the classical arguments between Protagoras and Aristotle.

Thanks for your support, but it looks like it was a Drive by Trolling.

Wasn't it Socrates who said, "I drank what?!"

I teach at a college, and if you were teaching at an accredited college, you could have had his job. Falsifying grades can get a college fined somewhere around $50,000. If it's proven that several people knew about it, the college can lose their accredidation. If that happens, it basically closes the college. No federal funding, no state funding, other colleges cannot accept courses by transfer. My college belongs to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. Most of the larger institutions belong to one of the associations. Falsifying of grades and attendance reports are some of the most serious offenses.

Also, most colleges have attendance policies, and if she did not attend classes, it would be a violation of school policy. It would probably also interest the entity that controls state funding for the college. They normally fund by contact hour, and if the funding is based on falsified records, that's called a felony.

Special request:

If possible, can this Troll stay for 24 hours? I'd like to see him respond and sink in his own socialist idiocy.

I notice you are a former teacher. I taught for 4 years and learned to hate most administrators. Had only one in that time who was intelligent and wanted the best for students. The others just wanted to draw their pay and their attitude was "DON'T ROCK THE BOAT."

I AM GOING THROUGH VINTAGE 60'S AND 70'S MAGAZINES AND JUST FOUND (PROFESSOR) ANGELA DAVIS ON THE COVER OF ONE. Great example of what our Univs. are willing to put in the classrooms--former wanted by FBI for domestic terrorism and crimes.

Thanks for the heads up, superskunk!

This troll has got the well-known liberal point of view. He instances to "statistics", but he thinks they are useless (and he doesn't know any of them). I'm not surprised when this low-IQ idiot says:"I was apolitical at the time, so think I am fairly objective". In fact I'm persuated that the Rats do nothing but tear and fight and scrap, building up mounds and piles of crap on their way to demoralizing the country and presenting a false front of "objective" misinformation. Why? They effectively control the media power, whatever it could be: TV, radio, schools, universities. Actually, the are convinced that anybody who thinks differently from them is just wrong, plain wrong. As for me, I'll defend to the death our conservative beliefs. I'm talking about the MAJORITY, the conscientious Republican majority which supported George W. Bush for President. Anyway we are increasing our number in the Universities and in schools. In these hard times, we have to be tireless Protest Warriors, apparelled of Faith and Justice.

Sure thing, Alamo-Girl. I appreciate you stopping by, but I think the trolls crawled back under his bridge at DU.

Uhmmm... too difficult question for his IQ. Please, get your idea accross. /sarcasm

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Liberal secular humanism is for whiny dorks and kooks with sex hang-ups. Nothing "intelligent" about it. An ideology which is helping to destroy American society and Western civilization is hardly something for "intelligent" people to brag about.

[alessandrofiaschi]

What do you teach? Just curious. Thanks in advance.

Anti-Darwinian patencies:

Where is the last but one troll? I want to play with them... ufffff!

[Richard Kimball]

Firefighting. The labs are a little different from your average college course.

You make some great points. First of all, I don't believe him when he says that he was apolitical in college. That's a crock. Most people develop their strong political beliefs in college if not earlier.

Also, was a really a low-IQ idiot? Idiot - definitely. Low IQ - hard to say. I have met my share of intelligent people who were very misguided. This guy just threw down the liberal/socialist talking points. No real strong arguments. Maybe he's not that bright.
