Yeah, I know...but more than likely she is probably a pretty decent teacher. Maybe she sucks, who knows. She was clearly stupid in this case. Link to comment

If that makes me part of the mob, I'll go ahead and spring for the pitchforks. 4 minutes ago, Ric Flair said: You JUST said you would spring for the pitchforks...literally ten minutes ago. The important part in his statement is "If that makes me part of the mob" The pitchforks part is figure of speech. Link to comment

He fought through lies, smears, and a gauntlet of hate and evil to secure the job. THREE CHEERS FOR BRETT!!! Considering only 4% of his record was allowed to be public knowledge, we don't really know how amazingly or remarkably qualified he is 1 Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 8 minutes ago, Ric Flair said: On this board? I agree. The vast majority of those who post here do so in lockstep. If anyone disagrees, they pile on and try to get them banned. It may as well be a freshmen orientation chat board at Vassar. You claim to be a history professor. I've been trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, but your own arguments appear to be in lockstep with talking points from questionable sources, and when forced to explain yourself it comes nowhere near professor-worthy. Since I'm already brandishing a pitchfork, I will join the angry mob of ideologically diverse Nebraska football fans in demanding that you make more sense. 2 Link to comment

I can't read his whole resume if the president elects to invoke executive privilege and withhold 100K documents that include, among other things, legal opinions. 3 Link to comment
