K-Lo:
John McCain to skip another conservative event. Perhaps he’ll appear on American Idol instead.
She is, of course, referring to this:
The Second Amendment–and I think more broadly, the Bill of Rights–informs the world of pre-existing rights that the government is not authorized to seize. Defending your own life is about as elemental and pre-existing as it gets, which is why we have a Second Amendment and also why it’s not called the Bill of Privileges.
And no more need be said.
From IMAO:
“A professor at North Idaho College says it’s all right to talk about executing “anyone who’s ever voted Republican” as long as it’s said with a smile.
The belief was expressed by instructor Jessica Bryan when her comments were challenged by a student, Linda Cook, who served as an aide to the late U.S. Rep. Helen Chenoweth, R-Idaho, and is a longtime supporter of the Republican Party.
Cook wrote to the school asking for a refund on fees she paid for a course taught by Bryan, after she withdrew because of the instructor’s comments. Cook told the Spokane Spokesman-Review that Bryan used every class period in the English composition course to criticize and disparage Republicans, including the suggestion of the death penalty for everyone who chooses to support a Republican with a vote.
….Among the allegations: Bryan reported President George W. Bush won the election “because people … can’t read,” and, regarding the death penalty: “First we line up everyone who can’t think and right behind them, anyone who’s ever voted Republican.”
…Bryan said she thought Cook had enjoyed the “debate” of the classroom, but Cook said she chose not to confront the teacher during class time. “If someone’s suggesting you just be killed you don’t sit down and say ‘let’s talk,’” Cook said.
But of course the moonbat is claiming to be the victim:
Bryan’s perception is that she was the one who was hurt.
“I do see it as an insult, personally and professionally,” she said. Bryan told the Sentinel she believes Cook is making a “mountain out of a molehill.”
The department syllabus notes that English 102 teaches “critical thinking” as well as essay and persuasive writing.”
But the real point here — do note the moonbat’s response, bolded above — is that “critical thinking” is now learning to repeat leftist horse excrement. It has nothing to do with thinking, unless you consider groupthink and parroting the left-wing PC party line to be thinking, and it certainly isn’t critical. It has nothing to do with logic, syllogisms, or anything you may assume it means.
It’s barking at the full moon. Like this idiot English professor.
The GOP grows a pair. It’s about time.
This one is nine minutes.
