That is why you get this kind of thing and Ward Churchills, et al. The hard sciences, mathmatics and engineering tend to be far more conservative and more intelligent and you don't get this level of fruity idiocy. The fact that these peoples salary are derived from tax dollars is just sickening, but understandable -- who else but the state is going employ a person like this and for what purpose. The sad fact is ... most college professors of English lit. can't get a real job in the real world. American universities are in some cases just giant welfare projects for deranged leftists that can't grow up. But hey...they all support Obama...so, yes we can!!!

It seems that people are mistaking "intellectualism" for "academic dogma." Two very different things. http://www.susanjacoby.com/excerpt.html Susan Jacoby has a new book about American unreason... it touches on this sort of thing.
