Red Book incident a hoax

Just saw news report that the incident reported by a student about Homeland Security agents visitng him after he requested Mao's book was a hoax. What an idiot!

Reminds me of that liberal professor who vandalized her car with racial epithets and then said her car was vandalized by racist whiteys.

that happened at Claremont, where I was faculty for 5 years. Liberals are in the minority there. But in her case, she was flat out mentally unbalanced.

Yes, I know you think that saying "liberal" and "mentally unbalanced" is redundant...

NEW BEDFORD — The UMass Dartmouth student who claimed to have been visited by Homeland Security agents over his request for “The Little Red Book” by Mao Zedong has admitted to making up the entire story.

The 22-year-old student tearfully admitted he made the story up to his history professor, Dr. Brian Glyn Williams, and his parents, after being confronted with the inconsistencies in his account.

Had the student stuck to his original story, it might never have been proved false.

But on Thursday, when the student told his tale in the office of UMass Dartmouth professor Dr. Robert Pontbriand to Dr. Williams, Dr. Pontbriand, university spokesman John Hoey and The Standard-Times, the student added new details.

The agents had returned, the student said, just last night. The two agents, the student, his parents and the student’s uncle all signed confidentiality agreements, he claimed, to put an end to the matter.

But when Dr. Williams went to the student’s home yesterday and relayed that part of the story to his parents, it was the first time they had heard it. The story began to unravel, and the student, faced with the truth, broke down and cried.



Why?

"The 22-year-old..."

What is interesting is just how often we see lefties fabricating stuff like this.....from the top (Dan Rather) to lowly college kids (trying to get an "A" from a liberal professor?).

Fortunately when liberals lie...they are often tripped up by inconsistencies in their account...even if they will not admit it (note CC and the the current Sheehan thread). I guess these are just the dregs of the gene pool....even by liberal standards.

That depends on what you consider to be a righty.

Actually you don't have to wait for a righties story to unravel, you know its bull$hit from the beginning.

Kinda like the old saying, how can you tell if a righty is blowing smoke up your a$$?

Do you think the student prances around in something like this:


What a moron. I sense many a teenage evening spent watching X-files.

Flint Man you are so right! If this kid was a little smarter, it would have been some Iranian poet or Pan-Arabic leftist hoey, but the kid is too stupid and he has got to bring up Mao. What an ass!

The Chinese are a longer-term threat than the ME. They're much closer in strength both militarily and economically. While we piss away $billions$ chasing boogeymen in Iraq, they're quietly getting stronger.

Wide-Man: Why are people raising their standard of living a long term threat? Does them getting richer make us poorer? A billion hard working people throwing off Marxist-Leninist-Maoist claptrap should be a thing celebrated! Do you long for the days of the Gang of Four and famine? Pleeese....
