				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!

			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..." . Chronologically-speaking.

			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.

			Do you think the student prances around in something like this:  What a moron. I sense many a teenage evening spent watching X-files. | ||

			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....
