War on terrorism gets OK from liberal Amherst

Amherst is horrible - makes me ashamed to reside in Mass. I cannot wait to move to NH. Check out what some of these ultra liberals have to say about our flag. They fly the UN flag and burn the American one.

War on terrorism gets OK from liberal Amherst

Oh, thank God. I was so worried.

For those wishing to send a message of support to Theodore Hertzberg, here is his Amherst email address:

......."that Amherst is a town with a good public school system and its own foreign policy," Miss Newcombe said. "I think that makes a lot of sense."

There is a town in Northern Afghanistan called Konduz where it would make better sense.....

[reports now coming in that 2 Reuters and 2 other reporters killed there while covering Amherst's sister city .]

I have no idea why this has never been made public, but several year ago they took flouride out of the public drinking water in Amherst, and replaced it with LSD.

I think that about explains what you can expect there.

LSD = liberal school dimwits.

The academics "have bought the farms". Let's hope in more ways than one.

Everyone wants peace! What's so stupid about such "Liberals" is that they recommend getting it by ignoring reality.

Even they know that "one can ignore reality but cannot ignore the consequences of ignoring reality."

Even they no doubt see the folly of all this but persist because they love the feel of moral or intellectual superiority--or any kind of superiority. And therein lies the irony of their moral and intellectual inferiority.

It's like Mohammed Atta, willing to purchase a ticket to paradise with his attack on the World Trade Center.

Theirs is just yet another form or elitism and snobbery, clouded by intellectual and moral confusion.

Snobbery and elitism come in countless versions. Social snobbery is fairly easy to deal with compared to intellectual, moral, or spiritual snobbery. No. It's hard to say. They're all insufferable.

If "Liberals" (no relation to the word liberal as in freedom loving or free thinking) were content merely to keep their heads in the sand, their foolishness would be of little consequence. Unfortunately, however, they seem determined to drag us along with them down the well-paved road to hell.

"Liberalism" is the greatest threat to world peace.

"Then the academics bought all the farms," she said, making the town of 36,000 residents a breeding ground for intellectual discourse.

I believe they bought the farms, I don't believe they made the town a "breeding ground for intellectual discourse."

If anything, this article underplays the insanity, from the dual lesbian sisters, Mount Holyoke and Smith, to the curriculum-free Hampshire to the content-free Zoo (U.) Mass, the Happy Valley (Pioneer Valley) is one bleeped up mess. It's even more liberal than Harvard/Cambridge, if that's possible.

I was at Amherst Veterans Day rally along with RaceBannon and Dutchy, it was great! This artical does not represent the actualities of what went on in Amherst.

First strike: the woman does not mention that Race almost kissed her when she said she was from the Washington times, agve her a big hug though. Secondly: she didn't cover the counter protest at the head of the Common, when we confronted the Commies and Faux vets after having to walk by them and endure the odure.

I spoke at lenth with Mr. Hertzberg, a very nice young man who interned with BoB Barr and he is pissed at the flag burning. These are the people that WE must support. They can kick the Hertzbergers out of school but they can't touch me, get out and suppor these fine youg people.

Amherst and the surrounding towns are one big classroom, full of daily exercises in reasoning and debate.

Liberal Reasoning: Any viewpoint opposite from yours is racist/homophobic/hate-speech.

Liberal Debate: When confronted with an opposing viewpoint, yell "Racist/Homophobe/Hater!".

'discourse' is a typo; 'dysentery' was intended.

[RaceBannon]

I was interviewed and phtographed by the Times there. When the woman told me she was from the Times, I gave her ahug! I knew we would get good press, or at least honest press!

[RaceBannon]

I didnt kiss her!!...(wish I did, she was ok!)

[Little Bill]

Forgive the Typo's, I have been up for the last twenty-four hours. Never look them in the eyes longingly when you give them the Comradidly hug, you have to be more stand offish. She wasn't "a Smokin'" Babe like Izzy.

"I knew we would get good press, or at least honest press!"

Not only that but it also got his ugly mug in the story as well. DC Chapter checkout page A10 of the 19 November TWT to see who gets a four column photo!

[RaceBannon]

That picture was 4 columns wide????????

YOU MUST SAVE ME A COPY OR 3!!

[RaceBannon]

Well, not to die for, but, I'd have bought her dinner!

[Little Bill]

Liquor is quicker, but I will leave that to you young folk.
