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.

I guess that leaves you out. Your nebulous attacks on Liz proves this.
You are still a character Liz :)
Don't let the whiners get you down.
El-BUMP-O : )
Better yet,
Don't let the whiners ....bed-wetters get you down,
: )
Class of 15, ah I see.
I feel better about my post now, after I made it I thought it might be inappropriate if she was 15.
Perhaps GOP should stop going to hostile venues like this. In 1940 RINO Wendell Wilkie was kinda badass to go into the inner cities were people threw rotten fruit at him, but what does Perry have to gain by enduring Ivy League scum?
My response would have been
"YES! Right now. With you. On stage. Bring the check, ya slut."
I am deeply offended.
