The St. Olaf (Northfield, Minn.) professor who, in a well-read Huffington Post item, recounted tearing down McCain campaign signs has resigned.
Per the Northfield News, it appears that Philip Busse was forced out.
St. Olaf spokesman David Gonnerman issued the following statement Monday afternoon:
"The St. Olaf College administration first learned of Phil Busse's self-admitted theft and destruction of campaign signs on the morning of Oct. 31 as a result of his posting on the Internet.
"The St. Olaf administration immediately referred the matter to local law enforcement authorities and commenced an investigation of its own.
"Mr. Busse has tendered his resignation and is no longer affiliated with St. Olaf College." Busse has been charged with misdemeanor theft.
There is a good reason they are called the loony left.
Another idiot in the Hall of Fame of idiot Obamabots.
He will be teaching in Chicago next term.
Loony and stupid
Private college justice!
(I now await all the Golden Girls and Jesse James jokes I’m not clever enough to make.)

How Sweeeeet it is!!!
What a Dofuss Professor
Wow~
***place snarky comment about him being kept on faculty had he done something more outrageous here***
Obama vandalism is probably a resume enhancer
“Per the Northfield News, it appears that Philip Busse was forced out.”
Good news from a university, for once!
He’ll be immediately hired by Columbia.
Obama has hired him as “morals advisor”.....
He’ll have the William Ayers chair after Ayers becomes Chief of Homeland Security!
Support Joe the Plumber!!!!! Vote like our lives depend on it!!!
Hmm, a college professor? I’m surprised he wasn’t offered tenure.

Great ending to the string from last week
Finally a college that takes responsible action when a faculty member goes off the rails.
I searched their website, but couldn’t find what his rank was, or whether he was tenured.
All I could find is that he’s on the faculty list as being in the Theater Department:
Theatre
Brian Bjorklund
Philip Busse
Todd Edwards
Dona Freeman
Gary Gisselman
William Sonnega
Michael Wartman
Jeanne Willcoxon
Karen Wilson
And people are paying $30,000 per year to have this LOSER teach their children!
