Need info on Professor Kevin Barrett for a friend.
He's involved in the 911 conspiracy. Does he have any credibility?

not sure which campus. Chicago public radio www.wbez.org had a report on him recently. He is going to teach a course on LIHOP this fall.

3. He's no shrinking violet
Neither Hannity nor Skeletor Wimp could steamroll this guy, which is a rare thing to see. I don't know much about him either, but I like his gumption.

8. Yeah, it was something, wasn't it?
Hannity uses his favorite tactic of splattershotting spurious charges -- you're an xx who believes yy and runs with zz crazies, so how can you justify your hatred of America? -- so there's only time to answer one. But this guy swats them as soon as they're out of doughboy's mouth. Hannity meets quicker minds every day, but never a quicker mouth. The professor gave me a big smile, I'm going to have to look into what he's got. Here's the site he mentioned in the clip:

http://www.scholarsfor911truth.org

and here's a biographical article:

9. Thanks, I didn't catch that site name.
Looks like he made Hannity question himself.

He's at the UW Madison, his course is in Islamic studies and LIHOP was to be only a small part of the class but the links and other stuff from the tread do better than I can.
