Should I be offended? What truth was contained in this email?
IBTZ
I see a few potential truths, but also a lot of bald-faced lies.
Must be a PhD (piled higher and deeper). Can’t recall when I ever saw so much mis-information in one screed. Professors live in ivory towers so high they can’t see or hear outside of them. I will give them this; the NPR/alphabet media have done a bang up job turning the truth upside down.
Obviously educated beyond his intelligence.
No truth offered so no offense taken.
I would be very embarrased to announce to the world I knew either of these people.
Would you be willing to point out the alleged truths.
Oh, the silliness of the professor. The poor man drowns himself in silliness. I once heard a joke about a professor, a bear and a skunk walked into a bar. I can’t remember the joke except that the professor produced more excrement and bad smell than either of the creatures. By the way, as an English major, I’d have to give the ole boy about a C- for his English usage, and a D for bad rhetoric and thought and ineffective persuasive writing.
Advanced degrees in what?
It isn’t anything to do with the hard sciences obviously.
Cleanup on Aisle One!
For such an “educated” person, he’s a terrible writer, boring too.
I’m trying to figure out why you posted this, other than that we get to make fun of it. It’s pretty much all it’s good for.
This is EXACTLY the same spew my college professor PhD type associates use. They believe it too! God help us all.
You have been dormant for a year, then pop up to post this drivel?
smart practical patriots like Obama,
Wrong on all three counts, no point in going any further.
What truth are you referring to?
These are probably retired government workers or retired tenured professors or other privileged employees of academia.
They most likely have had no real world experience or a job where they actually had to do something. There world view is influenced by a hostility to religion especially Christianity and an antagonism toward hard working, patriotic Americans.
The four things that stood out for me in the letter were: 1. arrogance of the writer, 2. the irrational anger and hatred towards Ronald Reagan, 3. the total ignorance about economics and 4. the hatred of religion and people of faith.
The government elite have an attitude very similar to the writer. They have never done any real work in their lives yet are contemptuous towards those who do the difficult work that keeps the country going. They think they are better than anyone who is not among their group and continually disparage those who produce the products and services that they use and protect them from violence.
Our country would be better off without them.
I second the question. What is the “truth” in the e-mail to which you refer?
What’s more surprising to me (or, rather, depressing) is that no matter the education level the writer of this e-mail supposedly has, he is conformist and limited in his thought processes, by turns illogical and ideologically-driven in his suppositions, and (willfully) blind to historical fact.
Recently, I read that it would ultimately be better for young people these days to learn a trade and join the work force immediately thereafter, versus going on to college, no matter their “intellectual potential”. I fully concur, in that if you’re intelligent, you can pursue learning on your own while starting up a profitable business.
Why pay money to these idiots in the ivory tower for your children to learn worn-out, left-wing ideologies and how not to think in general, in addition to every form of vice?
Well, its nothing I haven’t heard from every other leftist douchebag I have had the displeasure of talking to...

And what ‘truth’ would that be?
The liberal ‘progressive” version of it, in short, total BS?
