|    Conservative professor embarrasses liber    |

      XPost: ba.politics, dc.media, soc.penpals       XPost: alt.burningman       From: crash-test-dummy@barackobama.com              Glenn was already fond of conservative Professor Mike Adams —       he’s been a guest on Glenn’s TV show multiple times. But       yesterday, Glenn fell in love with him.              The professor, you see, is a supporter of traditional marriage —       something that in the academic community makes you an outcast.       Or for one online commenter, “the biggest embarrassment to       higher education in America.”              Prof. Adams’s response to this particular label was pretty       fantastic.              “Dear Edward:              I want to take the time to thank you for writing and telling me       that I should be fired from my position as a tenured professor       because I am “the biggest embarrassment to higher education in       America.” I also want to thank you for responding when I asked       you exactly how you arrived at that conclusion. Your response,       “because you insist that marriage requires one man and one       woman,” was both helpful and concise.              While I respect your right to conclude that I am the biggest       embarrassment to higher education in America, I think you’re       wrong. In fact, I don’t even think I’m the biggest embarrassment       to higher education in the state of North Carolina. But since       you’re a liberal and you support “choice” – provided we’re       talking about dismembering children and not school vouchers for       those who weren’t dismembered – I want to give you some options.       In fact, I’m going to describe the antics of ten professors,       official campus groups, and invited campus speakers in North       Carolina and let you decide which constitutes the biggest       embarrassment to higher education.              1. In the early spring semester of 2013, a women’s studies       professor and a psychology professor at Western Carolina       University co-sponsored a panel on bondage and S&M. The purpose       of the panel was to teach college students how to inflict pain       on themselves and others for sexual pleasure. When you called me       the biggest embarrassment in higher education, you must not have       known about their bondage panel. Maybe you were tied up that       evening and couldn’t make it.              2. At UNC Chapel Hill, there is a feminist professor who       believes that women can lead happy lives without men. That’s       nothing new. But what’s different is that she thinks women can       form lifelong domestic partnerships with dogs and that those       relationships will actually be fulfilling enough to replace       marital relationships with men. I can’t make this stuff up, Ed.       I don’t drop acid. Well, at least not since the late 1980s. But       I promise this story is real and not an LSD flashback.              3. At Duke University, feminists hired a “sex worker” (read:       prostitute) to speak as part of an event called the Sex Workers       Art Show. After his speech, the male prostitute pulled down his       pants, got down on his knees, and inserted a burning sparkler       into his rectum. While it burned, he sang a verse of “the Star       Spangled Banner.” I believe that stripping incident was almost       as embarrassing as the other one involving the Duke Lacrosse       team.              4. A porn star was once paid to give a speech at UNCG. The topic       was “safe sodomy.” After her speech, the feminist pornographer       sold autographed butt plugs to students in attendance. I’m not       sure whether the ink could contribute to rectal cancer. I’m no       health expert. But I do know it was pretty darned embarrassing       when the media picked up on the story.              5. A few years ago at UNC-Chapel Hill, a feminist group built a       large vibrator museum in the middle of the campus quad as a part       of their “orgasm awareness week.” I think that was probably the       climax of the semester, academically speaking. But they       certainly weren’t too embarrassed to display a vibrator that was       made out of wood back in the 1920s. Keep your batteries charged,       Ed. We’re about halfway done.              6. A feminist administrator at UNC-Wilmington sponsored a pro-       abortion event. During the event they sold tee shirts saying “I       had an abortion” to students who … well, had abortions. That’s       right, Ed. The students were encouraged to boast about the fact       that they had killed their own children. That’s how the UNC       system is preserving the future of our great Tar Heel state.              7. The following semester, that same UNCW administrator       sponsored a workshop teaching students how to appreciate their       orgasms. I learned art appreciation in college. Today, college       kids are taught orgasm appreciation. I will let you decide       whether that’s an embarrassment to higher ed., Ed.              8. A few years ago, a UNCW English professor posted nude       pictures of under-aged girls as a part of an “art exhibit” in       the university library. The Provost then ordered the nude       pictures to be moved away from the library and into the       university union. This decision was made after several       pedophiles had previous been caught downloading child       pornography in the university library just a few yards away from       the location of the display. The English professor was incensed       so she asked the Faculty Senate to censure the provost for       violating her “academic freedom.” The faculty senate sided with       the feminist professor. The provost was later pressured to leave       the university.              9. A different feminist professor at UNCW accused a male       professor of putting tear gas in her office. She was later       caught putting her mail in a microwave oven. She did this       because she thought people were trying to poison her with       anthrax and that the oven would neutralize the toxins. She was       not placed on leave for psychiatric reasons. Instead, she was       designated as the university’s official “counter terrorism”       expert.              10. And then there is Mike Adams. He thinks marriage is between       a man and a woman.              So those are the choices, Ed. You can simply write back and tell       me which of these professors, groups, or guest speakers has       caused “the biggest embarrassment to higher education” – either       in North Carolina or in America altogether. Or you can just       concede that our system of hire education is the real       embarrassment because it has been hijacked by radical feminism.       And please pardon any puns – especially those that take the form       of ms-spelled words.”              “That is absolutely brilliant,” Glenn said. “Absolutely       brilliant.”              “And if you look at that, those are ten — those are ten things       that happened in North Carolina. So what is happening in our       university system in California, in New York, in Washington       state, in Illinois? That’s North Carolina,” Glenn continued, if       the people of North Carolina put up with that, what else will       they put up with? You’re funding this.”              http://www.glennbeck.com/2013/08/27/conservative-professor-       embarrasses-liberal-critic-with-this-epic-response/                             --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
