Bigotry at Brandeis?

Don Irvine, April 27, 2010

The Tea Party Movement apparently has profs at Brandeis University so upset that they decided to hold a seminar about the movement under the heading of New Right-Wing Radicalism, A Transatlantic Perspective complete with swastikas on posters promoting the event.

Never mind that Brandeis is a Jewish university, what really matters apparently is that the Tea Party is a threat to the liberal orthodoxy so prevalent at the school that Center for European and German Studies felt it necessary to link them to Neo-Nazis.

All the while the mainstream media has ignored this story while letting unsubstantiated allegations of racism and bigotry by tea partiers go unchallenged.

Exactly who are the racists and bigots again...

Brandeis lost a TON of money by investing with that con artists Bernie Madoff. They all knew Bernie was shady. They thought he was front running his trades through his market making firm.

Brandeis is probably the ugliest university campus in America and now has some of the stupidest professors! They should be very proud!

Classic Brandeis. If their geologists found a new rock their liberal arts department would try to relate it to racism, sexism, and homophobia.

Brandeis has long been a far left university.

Remember they hired Anita Hill.

I think some of the students at Brandeis should get their grandparents to explain to them what the members of the tea party are really about.

I am pretty sure their grandparents would be embarrassed by their comparison of the sons and daughters of the greatest generation to the Nazi movement.

In fact, I am willing to bet that at least one of the students attending the protest will have been there specifically because of the actions of one of the Tea Party members or their immediate family during the liberation of Europe.
