1 yeah, that pencil-necked dingleshit was in the Charlotte Shit Rag the other day. See PC 101 I sent you

2 What did you send?

3 I think he should be bitch slapped. I agree with academic freedom and showing students thought provoking subject matter. But he was clearly doing his little grass roots effort to get out those youg voters. I think the little turd should be fired. Here is what I sent you: http://academicbias.com/bw101.html

4 Academic freedom: What if he was showing films of people torturing little puppy dogs or worse? Academic freedom doesn't mean anything goes. I would have been less concerned if the biased dingbat would have shown it after the election. Did he? Probably not. Nay Rusty, another liberal at all costs got caught. That should be the end of it.

5 Rusty, The documentarian over at Brain-Terminal made a documentary about something similar that I thought you might like. It's called: "Brainwashing 101". It's being hosted by Academicbias.com. Since you're a teacher I thought you'd like to get the skinny on this.

6 Crap. I forgot Evan Maloney's link: Brain-Terminal.

7 People need to realise that "Freedom of speech" does not mean that everyone should bend over backwards to provide you with a stage from which to deliver that speech. This teacher was clearly abusing his position to impose his own views upon the class. He asked for permission to send out flyers promoting the showing of the film and permission was denied by the schools authorities. Maybe it should have been made clearer that it wasn't just the posters they wouldn't allow. I always thought schools ahd a curriculum and certain books, videos and other teaching materials were agreed upon prior to the commencement of the school year? If I was a teacher, I would recommend all my students read Atlas Shrugged IN THEIR OWN TIME but I wouldn't make them read it before they went home that night.

8 not unless they can read real damn fast.

9 Interesting. So the censorship you were calling for a few months ago does not extend to the classroom. I guess that's a good thing. A bit bewildering, but good. By the way I think it is kind of silly to suggest that Fahrenheit 9/11 wouldn't be a productive use of class time. I'm starting to think you've been swallowed whole by your conservative ideology and no longer give even the slightest thought that perhaps your worldview might be dead wrong.

10 By the way, it is quite humorous to read all of these liberal bashing comments after reading Thomas Frank's great new book "What's the Matter with Kansas." All this pissing and moaning. And no no coherent end.

11 no objections to showing F911 anytime, as long as Stolen Valor or Farenhype 911 get equal time. teachers and professors frequently abuse the sacred trust that has been given them, and it works on both ends of the political ideology spectrum. teach them to think, and question. not what to think, and what to question.

12 "teachers and professors frequently abuse the sacred trust that has been given them" Rusty, does this apply to you?

13 I would gladly show clips of Fahrenhype 9/11 (or the whole thing if time permitted), even though it is a vastly inferior product (as is virtually everything Ann Coulter touches). One thing I object to is that any of you know what is going on in anybody else's classroom. Furthermore, I do not think I have ever criticised anything a conservative has presented to students, perhaps because we liberals are not so up tight about that sort of thing, and/or perhaps because I realize that all of our educations benefit from a good mix of all perspectives (I impersonated a fundamentalist christian and took questions from my students just to keep things fair the other day). I don't begrudge Rusty for his approach in the classroom, but he and his ilk do begrudge what liberal professors teach. That's lame, especially since he hardly has a monopoly on any truth worth mentioning. Lastly, anyone who makes available these disgusting beheadings - either out of principle or to get blog ratings - has very little credibility left to tell anyone what to show any audience.

14 Ok. Maybe Team America: World Police and F9-11 would be better in a compare these films lesson. No, the liberal mindset controls the colleges and universities. Always has. Took me twenty years to figure out they tried to brainwash me. Yes. Its true. I used to call him reckless Ron Reagan, the war monger. My econ professor railed on about how deficit spending would crowd out private investment. the chair of the department read aloud from A Radical History of the United States, suggesting that the signers of the declaration of independence were all motivated by greed. But when the USSR collapsed, I began to see the light. Then, entering into the world of business, I really saw it. No, Doc, you should show those kids the beheading videos. They will get to watch that Marine shoot that militant over and over. They will hear the PC crowd tell them Islam is the religion of peace, it is all about oil, and on and on, ad nauseum. The after they have watched the videos, get them to read the quran, and the hadiths.Get them to read about the seige of Vienna. Or the Greek war for independence. Or about the slaughter of the zoroasters. When I did, it just made me sick.

15 I see the creep PETER VON NOSTRIL is back. The 2 people on his blog must be sleeping.

16 I'd second that comment up there. By all means watch Fahrenheit 911... but then read The Koran. Actually, just read The Koran. You don't need to read it all. By about... ooo... ten pages in, you will see how "peaceful" this religion really is.
