   Ayers is now an education professor at the University of Illinois-Chicago and an outspoken critic of intimidation of professors. “Again and again, we have political leaders who weigh in on what’s appropriate to teach and who’s appropriate to teach,” Ayers said Thursday.

   “Is that where we’re heading, is the university a fiefdom of the governor? That’s a little frightening,” he said.

   Having an unrepentant terrorist as a “respected” educational leader in this country is a little scary as well don’t you think?

   Also, it was not just the Governer that was opposed to it, it was a very large part of our states population that didn’t want this piece of trash lecturing at our state university.

   Nothing to do with his acts of plagiarism, his lying about his “ethnic” status and other questionable actions? Isn’t William Ayers still willfully accepting the capitalist dollars from these same socialist educational institutions of indoctrination?

   And they are victims exactly how? If they are victims of anything at all it is simply that they are victims of their very own actions.

    What really pisses me off about Bill Ayers is that at heart, he is a spoiled rotten rich kid who when he got caught, ran back to his money and his daddy’s influence and got off. Not only got off, but got himself and his terrorist wife nice gigs. (I am a lawyer, I would LOVE to teach at Northwestern like Mrs. Ayers.)

    My dad was a poor immigrants’ son who did not go to college, he went to Korea (and was wounded). My mom was ahigh school dropout. My family is not rich (though a few relatives became rich through hard work, thrift, intelligence and a little luck I admit).

    Ayers was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and he used the spoon to wire up a bomb.

    I sent a letter to the President of the University of Colorado offering to discuss conservative ideas and principles. I got back a nice letter indicating that he had forwarded my letter to one of his department heads. I suspect that it is now in file 13, or for those of you who aren’t aware, the trash basket.

    The University of Colorado recognizes their deficit when it comes to intellectual diversity but absolutely refuses to do anything about it other than ask for $10M to pay for a “Chair”.

    Why would any conservative give U of C a dime until they can demonstrate a willingness to entertain thoughts that run counter to traitors like Ayers and nut cases like Churchill.

    Tuition Break For Illegal Immigrants Gets Initial Nod

    DENVER — A bill that would extend in-state tuition to students, regardless of immigration status, passed out of a senate committee with a 5-to-3 vote Thursday.

    “This allows for children who didn’t have a choice to come to this country to get in-state tuition,” said the bill’s sponsor, Sen. Chris Romer, D-Denver.

    Senate Bill 170 would ensure in-state tuition to undocumented students provided they attend three years of high school in Colorado, and are admitted into college within one year of graduation or earning their General Education Diploma.

    Why are we paying for the education of Mexican and Guatemalans in the first place?
