So, has anybody interviewed Mr. Smith to see if he has stopped digging?

They’re not saying, exactly.

I think U of A likes it BOTH ways. :-)

As far as I know, there are no laws saying you can’t be an ***hole in America. However, this boy screwed up when he brought the nice young lady into his freak show. Well, the good news is, he won’t have to ask for the day off tomorrow to go play tonsil hockey with his boyfriend at the Chick-fil-A.

When I was young, they were not called gay. The were called queer.

You tell me which is the most descriptive.

We strive to have a workforce that is diverse and respectful of different viewpoints and where opinions are respected.

That sounds like a lie. Somebody needs to find out how many conservatives live in AZ and then match that percentage to the number of conservative professors. If those percents don't match it's discrimination.

Sure sounds like they've cut him out. Otherwise, why would they bother with a statement that includes this last line...

He’a toast.

He bought the lies of the main stream media that everyone is in favor of ‘gay marriage’ and all that. But we are NOT.

He was a total jerk but so sure of himself that he posted that video expecting to be congratulated but we know what happened.

“free and respectful exchange of ideas is valued and encouraged.” “a workforce that is diverse and respectful of different viewpoints and where opinions are respected.” etc.

blah blah blah blah blah ..... Only a university or WH press secretary can come up with that kind of high-grade horse-droppings.

“We fired him because he was a jack***.”
If they had just said that I would have given them a big `Attaboy!’.

"Adam Smith held an appointment as an Adjunct Lecturer, Finance (non-tenure eligible) in the Eller College of Management at the University of Arizona from January 2, 2012, to May 20, 2012"

Seems like his association with UA ceased a little over a month ago.

The Kenyan must go.

OTOH - he was entitled to his free speech rights just like CFLa ... but he was being an AH while he did it. Maybe he shouldn’t have been fired from his jobs but counseled on how he exercised his rights under the First Amendment. But still, I think he was a jerk.

Anywhere I happen to be, they’re still called “queer.”

“He presently holds no appointment with the University.”

I don’t think he’s gonna be welcomed back with open arms if they felt the need to tell people he’s already gone.

In fact, now that I think of it, I’m “queerphobic.”
