Where is McCarthy when we need him?

You guys have been bitching about 'liberal' teachers and professors for nigh on 50 years now, yet none of you conservative illuminati are willing take up the mantle and bring some conservatism to the profession.

Why is that?

Is it easier to just bitch about it and not actuall do anything?

It it just that the edcation profession is such a handy scapegoat for all the ills of your world, and it's too sweet of a gig to give up?

Scared?

Perhaps you tried and washed out?

Hmmm...most "conservatives" I know that tried to get into teaching at the university level are quietly pushed aside when their views are exposed. This can range from blatant discrimination to just quiet talk about "I don't like the way that guy thinks". It can manifest in professors getting forced or just letting them languish without funding, raises, or hope of promotion.

I did not realize the depth of paranoia, hate and intolerance on the part of some posters.

Once again, those who do not believe the same as me; EXACTLY the same; are liberals, commies or worse. Back to the bogieman in every closet.

Vigilance is required; intolerance and prejudgement are not.

Yeah, I should have disguised Goldwater's book with the cover from another:



It would have still been confiscated, but just imagine the Principals disappointment when he opened it...

I was booted out of High School study hall for reading a paperback. It's title: "Conscience of a Conservative" the author? Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater. You see, it was evidently NOT on the screw-all's approved reading list. The school principal confiscated the book. After school was out, I bought another copy, read it on my own time. Good reading...much better than the required liberal pap served up.

Unfortunately, ol' Barry would be considered a liberal by the new herd of neo-conned. You see, he was for individual choice and responsibility, and a founding member of Planned Parenthood.

Our "paranoia is quite justified. Just because someone dosen't agree with your commie views dosen't make it hate or intolerance, In fact the most hateful, intolerant people I have ever met are liberal. Think it isn't true? explain the low grade given for a conservative viewpoint in college, or the lack of promotion of a conservative professor, or the verbal garbage spewed in response to any conservative viewpoint posed by a conservative. Liberals take the low road, every single time, and hate, there is NOTHING more hateful than a liberal. Just read any of the previous responses by liberals for proof positive.

Congrats, Snowman, you've made the 'ignore' list.

Not only was he not a founding member of Planned Parenthood, was it not his wife who was a founding member of the Arizona Chapter of Planned Parenthood, not him?
