Con. Jordan is one of the back benchers. He interrupts the guy trying to answer the question "Could you...?" with "It's a fact."

No, Congressman, a question is not a fact. You may have inserted a fact in there, but questions are not facts.

Next time try this: "Is it a fact that Donald Trump is president?" Then, if the guy answers "Well, it depends..." you can jump in and tell him it's a fact.

I don't do drugs. But I don't want the state to stop you or jail you for doing drugs.
And Con. Jordan is still a back bencher.

It shows the academe is not rushing toward the apocalypse. Acorns, not sky.

I think it implies the opposite. If this example were representative of academe, they wouldn't refer to it as "amazing."

I'm not really interested in trying to reduce it to acorns vs. sky. I do know that identity politics are a significant force in academe. If anything, the tweet tends to prove it more than not.

I'm still waiting for the day that the left eats itself alive.
It's already starting to happen.

Make no mistake, this country will go so far radically to the left that current leftists will be demonized in the way that they currently demonize Republicans.

You'll get a taste of your own medicine and realize exactly what the **** you've been pushing for years. It's going to be a wake up call for many.

The tweet acknowledges the problem but is also one, of many, responses by educators, administrators and liberal advocates for free speech. This thread pointedly ignores the opposition to grievance studies, identify politics, etc. in favor of a blinkered view.

I think it's now obvious there is no turning back. This is what happens when you let radical liberals take over for 8 years and give in to political correctness and a handful of mobs.

Leaders at a college in Michigan decided to cancel its production of "The Vagina Monologues" because it's discriminatory, given "not all women have vaginas."

The women's resource center at Eastern Michigan University put the kibosh on the famous production since it caters only to women who have the physical anatomy that accompanies the female sex, according to The Ann Arbor News.

The decision came after the resource center conducted a survey, asking respondents about "The Vagina Monologues." Those opposed to the drama said they were concerned about the fact that the production excludes some women, namely those who don't have vaginas.

That is the shadow of the lump next to the molehill. About as insignificant as it gets. Read the story, especially the quote from Leeds itself.

I'm offended by political correctness. Why is it not banned? Why are my feelings less important than those of women who were born with male genitalia.

I give a standing jazz-hand to all conservatives
