Let me guess this prof's encore: Bush = stupid

You took the course, didn't you? Or was that a lucky guess?

FReeper BibChr compares Wis. prof to dried manure -- unfavorably

[RayChuang88]

This professor must have taken Hitler's message about the Big Lie to heart:

All this was inspired by the principle - which is quite true in itself - that in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they more readily fall victims to the big lie than the small lie, since they themselves often tell small lies in little matters but would be ashamed to resort to large-scale falsehoods. It would never come into their heads to fabricate colossal untruths, and they would not believe that others could have the impudence to distort the truth so infamously. Even though the facts which prove this to be so may be brought clearly to their minds, they will still doubt and waver and will continue to think that there may be some other explanation. For the grossly impudent lie always leaves traces behind it, even after it has been nailed down, a fact which is known to all expert liars in this world and to all who conspire together in the art of lying. These people know only too well how to use falsehood for the basest purposes.

Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf (English translation by James Murphy, page 134)

In fact, the current Democratic Party is using this tactic, too.

That insults dry manure, which is useful and makes plants grow.

[BibChr]

LOL

I said "unfavorably."

[quantim]

Have you considered http://www.hillsdale.edu as an option? Conservative, no public funds, etc.

[Brilliant]

It's on the list (sort of), but she wants to be a physicist, and they don't have much of a program there.

[RoadTest]

They call just about anything a professor nowadays. Balaam's donkey spoke sense to him.

[George W. Bush]

Barrett said he was comparing the attacks to the burning of the German parliament building, the Reichstag, in 1933.

And this talking point actually helps his case how exactly?

Damn, deciphering the Moonbatese lingo is getting beyond me.

[econjack]

It worries me that some of us here dismiss this as yesterday's news...that it isn't important. Believe me, it is very important. I've seen bright kids seduced by words into thinking about events in ways I never thought possible. Just as one apple can rot the barrel, so one thought can permanently pollute the mind.

Personally, I plan to write the university and tell them that I will do everything in my power to dissuade any parent from sending their child to their institution.

This bastard is a textbook example of why in a time of war we need sedition laws and why we need to enforce them. Barrett should be at Ft. Leavenworth in an orange jumpsuit breaking rocks, not pumping hateful anti-American propaganda into young skulls full of mush while other young heroes risk their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Wis. prof compares Bush to Hitler

That's original. Wish I would have thought of it.

Calling this part-time instructor 'Professor' is a joke. More to the point, paying tuition to be taught by a part-time instructor with an agenda is egregious.

[MadIvan]

I take it this professor used the moniker "Chimpy McBushHitler" in his rant.

They're so utterly predictable.

College faculties and administrations are 95% left-lunatic, and their aim is to brainwash the students. They call it "diversity", but I call it Stalinism.

[no dems]

O.K., here's more campaign fodder for the Pubbies. Are they going to use it? Probably not.

If the GOP fought like the Dems, and exposed them for who they really are, we'd win on November 7 hands-down.

[MadIvan]

It's amazing how their definition of diversity demands that everyone think the same way.

[Thunder90]

Why doesn't that suprise me???

Let me guess this prof's encore: Bush = stupid --------------------------- Also from the article: But he did say in an interview: "Hitler had a good 20 to 30 IQ points on Bush so comparing Bush to Hitler would in many ways be an insult to Hitler." Great guess SquirrelKing!
