Many American college faculties want to react to the war on terror as a replay of the Vietnam War. Unfortunately for these Blame America Firsters, circumstances are different. This war threatens all 284 million Americans, not just soldiers in Southeast Asia 8,000 miles away. This war angers and unifies Americans; the Vietnam War depressed and divided them. Students overwhelmingly and enthusiastically support the war on terror. During Vietnam, by contrast, students were divided. This war is not ambiguous like Vietnam; it is clear-cut. Ninety-Two percent of the American people support the war on terror. This war transforms even the liberal voters of New York City into gung-ho war hawks.

Universities and colleges (jobs programs for worthless liberals) should face the wrecking ball because they are first, horribly and utterly biased and contaminated with political, not legitimate educational objectives, and they are no longer necessary in terms of their physical existence since technology has made virtually everything they usefully did obsolete.

It's encouraging that there are some patriotic professors still out there. We've got to do something about the brain dead Hate America professors though. Seriously, we've got to figure out how to get them away from the children. They are as dangerous as the terrorists.

No question about it, an observation I made quite a while back. It's the tweed jacket and elbow patches and glasses that throws ya off. They are as dangerous as an armed robber, sure. Maybe worse in the long run.

What gets me is that most of these professors are Jewish.

Surprise, surprise. NOT. The same is true for ACLU, as was the money that brought the NAACP into significance. Of course, this is lost on the anti-Semitic rants coming from the likes of Jesse Jackson and the present-time historical and hysterical know-nothings pretending to represent Blacks in America.

I know Jesse Jackson made that Hymietown remark some years back, but are you saying he puts down Jews as well as whites? This was something I had been wondering about, that is whether the Jesse Jackson types put down and give a hard time to Jews, or only to white non-Jews. I suppose they give trouble to anyone whom they can extort money from so that would make sense for them to give the Jews a hard time as well.
