I am stunned. What do these fools think having ISIS on a campus is going to do?? Oh, wait. They think they're the peaceful people. Silly me.

    According to the Cornell President. http://news.cornell.edu/stories/2015/03/...
    Project Veritas does not report the truth.
    "As the president of Cornell University, I want to be clear that the notion that Cornell would allow ISIS training sessions on our campus is ludicrous and absolutely offensive.

    Project Veritas, the organization behind this shoddy piece of “journalism” has been repeatedly vilified for dishonest, deceitful activity. It is shameful that any individual would pose as a student facing racial discrimination at another university, ask leading questions on hidden camera about Cornell’s tolerance for differing viewpoints and backgrounds, and then conveniently splice together the resulting footage to smear our assistant dean and our University. After speaking with Assistant Dean Scaffido, I am convinced that he was not aware of what he was being asked.

    Let me be clear: Cornell has an unwavering commitment to the free and responsible exchange of ideas. However, we remain vigilant in maintaining an appropriate balance of freedom of expression within accepted boundaries. Of course, incitement to violence is not protected and would never be tolerated on our campus. "

    I'm stunned myself.
    But do you really expect this man, with all the students he has to care about, and all the money he has to disburse, to actually KNOW that Islamic State is ISIS, of even what Hamas does? He's a busy man, and his job is to say YES, we can help you./Sarcarsm font off

    NOW, I want someone from Veritas to go in and ask the same kind of questions about a broadly named Christian organization, since they are usually the ones on the outs. Can't wait!

    Irrationality:
    Man’s basic vice, the source of all his evils, is the act of unfocusing his mind, the suspension of his consciousness, which is not blindness, but the refusal to see, not ignorance, but the refusal to know. Irrationality is the rejection of man’s means of survival and, therefore, a commitment to a course of blind destruction; that which is anti-mind, is anti-life.

    Because the people voting now don't want to have to work very hard, or have reality slap them on the face. Because, omg, it HURTS!
    They live in a world of video game immortality. No consequences. They just get back up, no harm no foul, and they're whole again. There are no lasting repercussions. Handed the keys to the city, and they take everything. Because they expect they can. They DESERVE that stuff.

    O'Keefe's videos should be played on Fox 24/7. This is huge. But, realistically, I remember Fox played the "I think it's better if you spread the wealth around" video hundreds of times before the 08 election, and it made no difference at all.
