This is liberalism at its finest. Get really angry with someone who holds views different from your own, and then berate that person with hyper-emotional drivel. In this case, the victim was Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who received sexually explicit questions from Dartmouth's student body regarding anal sex during a visit to the college. Perry is a social conservative.
According to the Dartmouth, the student newspaper, Perry was there to discuss the midterms, border security, energy initiatives and foreign policy. There was a Q&A sessionand thats when things devolved. Both presidents of the College Democrats and Republicans condemned the actions of their peers [emphasis mine]:
When Perry opened up discussion to the audience, several students posed questions, deriding Perrys views on same-sex marriage.
Emily Sellers 15 asked if Perry would have anal sex in exchange for campaign contributions of $102 million, while Timothy Messen 18 accused the governor of comparing homosexuality to alcoholism.
Ben Packer 17, who wrote and distributed these and other questions, said Perrys views were more insulting than the questions.
Several members of the audience said they were excited to hear Perry speak but offended by the questions.
I was really excited to see him come out to Dartmouth and speak with the students and I think he was able to cater towards the entire audience, not only the College Republicans, Abraham Herrera 18 said, noting that some students remarks were offensive.
They were phrased in incredibly insulting ways, and Im horrified, College Republicans president Michelle Knesbach 17 said. We allow people to ask policy-driven questions, but when theyre phrased in an insulting manner, we try to avoid that, because it just detracts from the overall political discourse we can have on campus.
College Democrats president Spencer Blair 17 agreed, stating that he understood concerns about Perrys stance on gay marriage but was disappointed by the tone of the questions.
I think its really disappointing that anyone would undermine a serious political event with sexually explicit questions, and neither I nor anyone from College Democrats would ever condone such behavior, said Blair. We appreciate Governor Perry visiting campus, as we encourage any sort of political engagement and discourse here at Dartmouth.
Zachary Myslinski 15 said that he thought the questions posed legitimate concerns about Perrys social policies.
Keep in mind; this is the same school that held a lesson in cultural appropriation for Halloween costumes last month.
Again, liberalism at its finest.
H/T Campus Reform
The kids received their talking points from someone else.
most of them started as seminaries for each of the denominations in early america. penn was started by G whitfield and b franklin as a orphanage.
He should have responded with “ I don’t have Anal Sex because that’s where Liberals come from”
He should have told the girl “Wow, I’m impressed you have that much cash laying around, but I think I’ll pass on your offer.”
Male homosexuals, across the board, share an illness called coprophilia. someone with a marked interest in excrement, especially the use of feces or filth for sexual excitement. This obsession of queers is a big part of their disease problems.
My IMMEDIATE thought as well...
Ya just can’t make this up...
Dartmouth is a cesspool.
Was Ben’s middle name Fudge?
Do you really want these people setting the table for the Republican Party when it comes time to choose our candidates in the Presidential primaries every four years? The people of Red England have little in common with the rest of America, and should have as little a voice as possible in choosing the GOP candidate. It is long past time that Red Hampshire primary be scheduled among the LAST states to vote come primary season. They choose BEFORE Texas and other large states? Puh-leeeze.
You'll find that many Ivy League/Red England parents are guided by the same moral compass as their children...
Oh, please...is anyone else offended? Show of hands?
Blackballed in college were you?
Stupid Kraut.
Sadly, I agree with your assessment.
Like the title says...stay classy.
It’s easy to cast aspersions against groups you aren’t in. A little uncomfortable when closer to home.
Hypocrite.
That would seem to indicate it's a personal problem.
How many Sigma Chi members happened to have noticed this particular post? Probably just one.
It is an exclusive honorable group with few members.
But it takes someone that has honor to understand what honor means.
That must be why you are having so much trouble following.
I bet Emily would do it for a stick of gum.
WTH is a 15 year old doing in college? Does Dartmouth have a Dougie Houser program?
U doan’t reckon his nick is Fudge, do U?
” WTH is a 15 year old doing in college? Does Dartmouth have a Dougie Houser program? “
All of the Ivy leagues do. One of my HS classmates entered college at 13. His sister at age 11.
