Ai!

I keep thinking it can't get worse and then it gets worse.

Over in Florida? They're passing that Academic Bill of Right, the one Horowitz has been dancing around the country lying about, but they're also considering allowing students to SUE professors who tell students that they're wrong about things.

Students who believe their professor is singling them out for “public ridicule” – for instance, when professors use the Socratic method to force students to explain their theories in class – would also be given the right to sue.

“Some professors say, ‘Evolution is a fact. I don’t want to hear about Intelligent Design (a creationist theory), and if you don’t like it, there’s the door,’” Baxley said, citing one example when he thought a student should sue.

Every single one of you who voted for Bushco? This is the world you wanted. I hope you like it.
