DID THAT COME FROM OBAMA.

The communist liberals don't want people to know the truth of what communism means.

Look forward to more restrictions of freedom on campus as the majority of collegiate staff in America is Socialist. Before you send your students off to collage check the status of the professors. Indoctrination is not just for kids.

hit a little close to home I guess. the liberals can't handle the truth.

We have to start boycotting these liberal universities and create a list of conservative ones. My money will never be spent at a place like this. These people are fools.

Shut down orders probably came directly from the WH (Emmanuel?).
USMC Wolf
I guess, true to form, freedom of speech only applies when it's the liberal agenda of the professors that is being pushed. I wonder if any of the "educated teachers" were old enough to remember the atrocities committed by Russia. Don't give up kids! Keep up the fight and thank you from us older folks!

That's it for me! You posted my two word post on "Aniota Dunn", but nothing else!! So long!!

Bob, don't take it personal. It seems Fox's new blog software they installed is rather glitchy. I've had so many posts disappear that I emailed them to see if I was blackballed. They came back saying no and their tech team would look into it. Many others have posted that their posts didn't "take", as did you. If they were blocking you, you wouldn't have been able to post that they are blocking your posts. I think they just have some cruddy software on the back end.

How is it that student knows more that the powers that be? Dems still trying to change history, making socialism look good so they can force it on us.
conservative and proud
I think that they should have mentioned America when they were mentioning the socialist countries. Think we're close to arriving there within the next 4 years.
SidneyDave
And UMASS is allowing a convicted terrorist / murderer to speak to the students because they want every side to share their point of view. You know, free speech.

MT, you're a disgraceful POS!

Patrick Henri (I'm honored you thought enough about me to take my name), Of course they have the right to rescind their private donations, but my guess is they won't.

Actually I saw Patrick's posts long before I saw you on here.

To major tom
So, you didn't really watch the show did you ? It was sarcasm! He was making the point, what if I said my favorite political philosopher was Adolf Hitler. Nice try! Stop being spoon fed and learn on your own.
Patrick Henri
Hi, Henri. Where ya been hiding? Absolutely, NO name connection, bud. I'm an actual descendant of the real Patrick Henry. Your guess about alumni is off base. We don't cotton to denying students freedom of speech by progressive socialist hypocrits. Stay in France, Henri. Pontificate away!
Markster
We will opass the truth down by word of mouth isf necessary but the truth will ALWAYS prevail. Stopall public funding to that disgrace of a University now and if your an alumni and don't like this, write, call, don't fund this nuthouse.

Free speech? Hmmm how's that working for ya there at Washington University? Not so much.......
Patrick Henri
We hate to break it to you, Henri, but ALUMNI can rescind their private donations to WA University. Stay in France, Henri. You'll never understand freedom and liberty in the U.S.
Major Tom
Glenn Beck on tape admitting his favorite polictial philosopher is Adolf Hitler... Beck has yet to deny that he said these words, and he has yet to retract this statement... http://www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/?p=1428 ASK QUESTIONS of Glenn Beck! Why would Rupert Murdoch put a guy who loves Hitler, who claims that Hitler is his favorite political philosopher, on TV everyday to spout his hate filled views? ASK QUESTIONS! SPEAK WITHOUT FEAR! When will Glenn Beck retract his comment that he loves Hitler?!!
SidneyDave
Major Tom, Did you see the whole segment? I guess not. How you can get away with taking 1 sentence out of a whole discussion and use it as the premise of the whole discussion is so sad.
Henri
I hate the break it to you guys but the University of Washington also has the right to rescind its permission for the memorial if they think it is offensive. Find another cause.
shawn boles
Americans are fed up! Out of control administrations are going to push us too far! Everyone has a breaking point. Possibly America collectively.

I am proud of these students as should every red blooded American be. They are seeing the errors of Socialism. Maybe there is hope for this country after all
MSG
Geeeeeeeeee that s the same reaction that the commies had about the wall..........would be a socialist system in place there at that university......like the socialist government in E. Berlin during the standing of the wall?.....
Henri
Guys, this has NOTHING to do with free speech. Do you think pro-choice groups have the right to stage events at Catholic Universities? These folks are free to hold their protest elsewhere.

Obama was "honored" at Notre Dame..No free speech issue here, even though he is avidly pro-abortion.

The same political correctness that bans a celebration of freedom is what allows muslim terrorists to infiltrate our military and this Country. I guess liberals are proud of this.

Hold it anyway and if the University wants to get cute about it take them to court!

In GOD WE TRUST FREEDOM WILL WIN .not little liberals
and there lies.
Patrick Henri
Freedom fighters at WA University, you rock. I'm proud of you. The COMMUNIST, propagandist, freedom hating professors showed their true colors and they are UGLY. They are UNAMERICAN, FREE SPEECH HATERS, LIBERTY-DENYING LIARS. Good job, students.
Henri
You realize that Washington University is a private institution, right? You realize that it has the right to decide what type of events take place on its property, right? Your aware that the students right to free speech does entitle them to express their views on private property, right? Just wondering.
Tom from Ohio
Henri, would you be saying that if it were and anti war protest? I doubt it. If you would have listened to the interview, you would have heard this fellow say that they had all of the proper permits. To issue permits, and then trump them on some mase up rule is equal to totalitarian rule, which is what your ilk wants. So why would you say anything different?
We will fight against totalitarian rule. We will win. You and your kind will have to find a new place to groove, man! By the way, the 60's have been over for some time now.

Send the professors to a Gulag.

It appears that Washington University has violated the First Amendment rights of these American students. The fact that a group of marxist professors could shut down a reminder of Soviet oppression that the students had built is disgusting and alarming. I hope that the "Institute for Law and Justice" becomes involved in defending the Constitutional rights of these American students. This case needs to be made very public, as do the names of each of the protesting professors. And all of you PATRIOTS out there, let us E-Mail this University to voice our displeasure. Also, we should E-Mail our Senators and Representatives to cut federal funding to this school. Up in arms America, we must vote them all out.
Carolina Blues Billy-Bob
Bravo to the students who stopped listening to ideologue professors, examined the truth of socialism, and had the courage to set up a provocative commemorative.
horse sense
And we are talking about health care, this is the left running our institutioins of higher learning, No education here, indoctranation only. Hate America.
Liberal = Stupid
What do you expect. Liberal professors couldn't stand anyone to really see what there beloved socialism looks like.
