MADISON, Wisconsin (AP) — More than 60 state lawmakers are urging the University of Wisconsin-Madison to fire an instructor who has argued that the U.S. government orchestrated the September 11 terrorist attacks.

A letter sent Thursday and signed by 52 Assembly representatives and nine state senators condemns a decision to let Kevin Barrett teach an introductory class on Islam this fall.

U.W.-Madison Provost Pat Farrell launched a review after Barrett spoke last month on a talk show about his views that the terrorist attacks were the result of a government conspiracy to spark war in the Middle East.

Commercial opens to a shot of children getting off a school bus and going into a school. The voice over comes up and says; “If you were born in the 1960’s or 1970’s, 30% of your classmates are missing…………due to abortion, during that period.”
I graduated with an unusally large number of kids, (over 900).
I can guarantee you, and those anti abortion people that more than 300 children a year die of starvation or lack of medical care, in this United States, than all the people I went to school with.

When are my fellow, rabid, Christians going to get it through their fat heads that there concerns should not end when a fetus is born. After it ceases to be a political tool, they could care less.

Lancaster, Pa is still one of the few places I’ve been that still have active orphanages, both private and state run. Also, the United States is only behind Japan as the nation with the highest infant mortality rate. Infant. Not Fetus!
Once it’s born, it’s somebody elses problem.
God how I hate these self serving, hypocritical, bible thumping SOB’s!

“For it is not light that is needed, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. The feeling in the nation must be quickened, the conscience of the nation must be roused, the propriety of the nation must be startled, the hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed: and its crimes against God and man must be denounced.”

– Frederick Douglass

I would write a column, extoling the prases of a Happy 4th, this year, but as far as America’s and it’s allies conduct as far as relieving human suffering and their watton killing of civillians, in certain un-named countries, there is nothing to celebrate.
