Bennish's lawyer was on Hannity the other day saying that the kid only taped 20 minutes of one class and this was not the norm for his classes.
The kids mom was on and said yes it was, the school had received numerous complaints about the guy and refused to do anything about him.
"The comments he made were very very damaging and very hurtful," Giuliani told a crowd of about 2,000 at the Coors Events Center.
"I think the remarks were extremely cruel," he told reporters "He inflicted a tremendous amount of pain on these families."
Giuliani compared Churchill being on CU's faculty to having a geography teacher who believed the world is flat.
"He's entitled to that opinion, but you don't want him to be teaching geography, do you," Giuliani said.
He wanted to teach his students to think so he lies to them? Is he claiming that he hoped his students would notice what he said Bush said in the SOTU address was factually incorrect.
Prove it, d-ckhead. The student did what he did because he had been exposed, for weeks or months, to the teacher's diatribes. He didn't just happen to have a tape recorder, turn it on, and catch the "rare" inflammatory statements.
Of course, only Matt Lauer and perky Katie would believe the S-O-B anyway.
As Theodore Roosevelt once said:
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
"Citizenship in a Republic," Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910
Roosevelt also said:
"Criticism is necessary and useful; it is often indispensable; but it can never take the place of action, or be even a poor substitute for it. The function of the mere critic is of very subordinate usefulness. It is the doer of deeds who actually counts in the battle for life, and not the man who looks on and says how the fight ought to be fought, without himself sharing the stress and the danger." (1894)
Mr. Bennish and Liberals in general emphasize the "critical" portion of "critical thinking" at the expense of objectivity. Reflexive criticism is just as biased as uncritical thinking.
he's a little wuss who got caught.
What a fatuous defense. What does he think, that the parents who let their kid play the tape on a public radio station were SUPPORTING him?
I'm sorry, the guy is an imbecile. To compare any US President to a mass-murderer in a classroom is just beyond the pale. The guy needs to be FIRED.
Since when is it up to all the parents to personally approve any syllabus? This is a crock.
Someone needs to remind our Colorado teacher that he's in no danger of being beheaded under the Bush Administration.
When you find yourself standing in a hole, stop digging!
I thought I read somewhere he was on unpaid leave? Was I mistaken?
I listened to and read the transcript, and the guy comes across as a huge anti-semite. He kept bringing up Israel, saying that Palestinians are justified in calling Israelis terrorists.
He has a problem.
If Bush was Hitler, that goofball would have already been whisked off to the concentration camp after a 4 AM raid by the secret police, never to be seen again.
Idiot.
I say we round this guy up and send him to one of the many death camps.
