I'm now truly embarrassed to be from oklahoma, and this man is a freakin teacher at the University of Oklahoma.
Wow.

N'est-ce pas?

[yellowdogintexas]

3. That's for damn sure. Oklahoma is just..

a place that makes me :scared:

8. Yeah - on the Yahoo composite poll, out of 40-something states reporting, OK has

the LOWEST % for Obama except for Utah.

Terrible thesis.

[Captain Hilts]

10. He's not going to lose. And President Bush is doing everything he can to help him win. nt

11. This man shouldn't be allowed near a teaching facility

except as an example of closed minded ignorance.

And I need a shower after reading that. Ew.

[a la izquierda]

13. Come on already...you mustn't go to OU.

Pretty much everyone there knows this guy is a twit. People who agree with him will continue to do so...he's not changing any minds.

15. Too bad he didn't tell us how the French would have reacted to a genuine pretension.

As in:

EDMOND — When Benjamin Franklin was dispatched to France as ambassador of the United States in 1776, he won the hearts of the French through his authenticity. Rather than take on an affected and phony continental style, Franklin eschewed the powdered wig of the European gentleman and donned the fur cap of an American frontiersman. Original genius and polymath, Franklin understood that the French would see through any false pretension but respect an authenticity that sprang from an unpretentious and naive love of country.

Right professor.

16. Summary of the article: "Don't vote for that n****r!".......n/t

[EstimatedProphet]

17. The discussion on that article was sickening

It was almost like white hoods were mandatory.

[Brewman_Jax]

18. A poor article from a supposed "professor"

no understanding of US history. I guess the civil rights era was just no big deal and violence aganist the civil rights marchers was just "good clean fun." :eyes: Re-hashed faux-patriotic pandering puked pablum from RW squawk radio. Nothing original, much less thought provoking. :puke:

[Brewman_Jax]

19. Counter point

The professor has a point, but not for the reasons he wrote. I found this article on Yahoo! http://news.yahoo.com/page/election-2008-political-pulse-obama-race and it does not paint a good picture. :( I thought about its own thread, but this thread folded in nicely.
