... and she "knows" this, how? Speaking of stupid!
Stick with it because you know better and because if you don’t, you will be admitting they got to you. If given the chance, speak the truth. Remember truth is what separates them from us.

Must see video from 2004: Democrats Defend Fannie/Freddie from Regulation:
"We've been through nearly a dozen hearings where frankly we were trying to fix something that wasn't broke. Mr. Chairman we do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac and in particular at Fannie Mae under the outstanding leadership of Mr. Frank Raines."
-Rep. Maxine Waters, 2004

To reiterate, your "teacher" is just another flaming dumb@$$.
> I am thinking of not going for the final class.
You paid for the course. What’s another 2 hours of redundancy? The girl is obviously thinking with her rack and you shouldn;t be discouraged. Finish the final class, get your credits and tell the prof to F off.
Where does he get the time to do this?
The reason why I ask is because I am a professor of Statistics at a major University and I never have that amount of time to address such (political) issues that I am concerned with.
Tell the moron that Barney Frank has, probably irretrievably, screwed things up, along with other Democrat Congressmen and Senators, by precipitating the current financial crisis by causing the Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac failures. Let the truth ring out.
I’m sure this idiot teacher also thinks it was a great idea to make mortgage loans to people who have no way of paying them back! Yeah the CRA, and Fannie & Freddy, had no impact on any of this. Absolute BS!!
>> I am thinking of not going for the final class.
Dude, stick it out, or the joke’s on you.
There are numerous and vocal adjuncts and professors in the SCPS that are not Democrats. There are professors at SCPS and Langone who both despise CRA and made millions off of this flawed public policy law.
Several of the deans and VIP Alum of the SCPS were at the Capital Markets conference this week, they were on the dais talking about the pending financial apocalypse.
Your professor is dead weight inside the program selling retail snake oil, you could bring it to the school’s attention if you are in SCPS.
Challenge the professor. That’s what I did to my sociology professor.
I know this is a wasted effort but still ask him since when does opinion equal fact? Tell him you can get peoples opinions anywhere.
Yea, that is the ticket.
Don’t you dare quit! Us ditchdiggers need you to point the incoming recruits of guvmint indoctrination to the joys of self government and Constitutional law.
Good luck!!
I hope I do this right. Here's a link http://www.age-of-the-sage.org/psychology/social/asch_conformity.html

You could tell the prof that from now on you are just going to exercise the Frank Doctrine for Higher Education: sign up and take classes at NYU without paying the tuition and fees. Default, as it were, on your tuition payments. Let him know you are going to recommend that other students do the same. If they can’t afford to pay him, oh, well.
