Bernie Sanders will venture into unfamiliar territory on Sept. 14 when he delivers a convocation speech at Liberty University, a massive evangelical Christian university in central Virginia.
Sanders, a culturally Jewish democratic socialist, is an odd headliner for the reliability conservative school that was founded by the late Jerry Falwell, a Southern Baptist preacher known as the father of the Christian right.
Liberty released their fall convocation schedule on Wednesday and Sanders was listed at the Sept. 14 speaker. The other speakers include Christian artists and authors Korie and Sadie Robertson, stars of A&E's Duck Dynasty, and Rep. Louie Gohmert, a conservative congressman from Texas.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a firebrand conservative courting evangelical voters in the GOP presidential primary, launched his campaign at Liberty....

How can an institution have true Americans like Senator Cruz and Governor Palin speaking, yet invite a commie like Sander to their campus? Sanders is simply the Comrade Joe Stalin of the 21st Century. He should be convicted of nothing less than treason and punished to the fullest extent.
What would a Socialist know about liberty? Socialist hate that word and what it stands for. Ask Slick Willie’s wife. She’ll tell you. She and her sex maniac husband think that Americans have too much liberty and they want to take some of it away. There is no such thing as TOO MUCH LIBERTY. Hillary can KMA.
Conservatives are willing to listen to and debate ideas, liberals aren’t. What’s interesting is that Sanders would want to go there.
Christians never fear the marketplace of ideas.
I quote your tagline: “Resistance to Tyrants is obedience to God”. Sanders is baby-killing tyrannical dictator who plans to make abortion on demand subsidized by “We the People” the law in this Republic. A vile murderer serving satan has no right to speak anywhere, much less at a university based on Christian values. Jerry Falwell’s anger at such a thing is being heard in Heaven.
Jerry Falwell was a good friend of Larry Flynt.
Maybe they are treating his speech like a zoo exhibit, it is hard to find a “somewhat honest about themselves socialist” these days.
That sounds like the spinjob for a leftist lie. While Jerry Falwell doubtlessly prayed in earnest for Flynt's salvation, the smut peddler published an evil attack piece on Falwell in his vile rag, H*stl*r magazine. Falwell served God whereas Flynt, as is the case with Sanders, serves only satan.
It is Pure Genius!
Because now whenever ANY conservative is invited by a college republican club to speak at ANY public university and are treated like crap they can point out the liberal hypocrisy by saying,
“You progressives accuse us of being intolerant when Avowed Socialist Bernie Sander spoke at what you consider a ‘Extremist conservative college’ and he was treated with dignity and respect but here I am at a state college treated like a thought criminal, how very ‘diverse and tolerant’ of you”
We can rub their little dim doggie noses into any future piles of poop their fascistic behavior craps out in full public view of everyone.
If that's indeed the case, then Sanders needs to be locked in a cage at Liberty with 24/7 security by armed guards. This monstrous individual is far, far worse than the fictional Hannibal Lecter. It's the goal of Sanders to drive America even further to the left than even the hussein cabal.
This is a good idea. Once again Christian Conservatives will show they are not afraid of divergent ideas and can behave like adults. Perhaps even Bernie will learn something.
Google it.
No thanks. I don't believe in Google, Bing, Wikipedia, Snopes or any other leftist-run outfit. Google is run by sodomites and the rest have some form of association with Bill Gates, George Soros and Warren Buffett. My understanding is that Google (which denies the Divinity of Christ) pushes its responses to favor far-left sites as part of its well-documented anti-Conservative agenda.
My sources of reliable information are nowadays limited to Free Republic (which has an excellent search feature) and, of course, the Sarah Palin channel. Fox News has become increasingly liberal and can't be trusted. I also avoid Drudge since it pushes RINOs and I believe has some involvement with sodomites in the upper levels of its staff and/or management.
Young pathologists need to be trained.
If they’re going to give a forum to an evil American-hating abortionist like Bernie Sanders, then just go ahead and invite the leaders of ISIS to speak there. They’re both serving satan and aim to destroy America.

I applaud Sen. Sanders for having the courage (unlike other high-profile Democrats) to accept an invitation to speak at a conservative university.
I’m also willing to bet that you won’t see a subset of conservative students trying to shout him down during his speech - in fact I even doubt they will boo. The leftists at most other colleges should follow Sen. Sanders lead:
“...Liberty University was kind enough to invite me to address a convocation and I decided to accept,” Sanders said in a statement. “It goes without saying that my views on many issues — women’s rights, gay rights, education and many other issues — are very different from the opinions of some in the Liberty University community. It is very easy for a candidate to speak to people who hold the same views. It’s harder but important to reach out to others who look at the world differently. I look forward to meeting with the students and faculty of Liberty University.”
Well said, Sen. Sanders, and also an admirable trait that at one time in this country was more true of those on the left than on the right. Perhaps you can help change that, and restore sanity and civility to the political left.
