Except you said:

You will find those on the right that will do equally stupid things.
Therefore, you were asked to show us a link about a right-winger doing something similar to this.

I cannot personally verify that this is her photo. But the person who posted on another forum it says it is.

I am not going to waste a bunch of time on this. Yes, I said equally as stupid, not exactly the same thing.

College suspends professor for allegedly attempting to force students to vote for Obama

A college professor has been placed on leave after she allegedly forced her class to sign a pledge to vote for President Obama in the upcoming elections.

Early last week Professor Sharon Sweet at Brevard Community College (BCC) allegedly told students to sign a pledge that reads: “I pledge to vote for President Obama and Democrats up and down the ticket.”

“Based on the allegations, Associate Professor Sweet has requested, and been granted, a leave of absence without pay effective immediately,” reads a statement put out by John Glisch, Associate Vice President for Communications at BCC.

Sweet’s actions may have also violated Florida’s election laws.

Section 104.31, of Title IX in chapter 104, states that “no officer or employee of the state... shall... use his or her official authority or influence for the purpose of interfering with an election or nomination of officer or influencing another person’s vote or affecting the result thereof.”
And all this time I thought the college would go along with it because, you know, they are apparently liberal bastions of thought and ideology.

Fair enough......post a link to a story about a Right-Winger doing something EQUALLY stupid....we'll judge if that's true or not.

Nice attempted deflection, but sorry we aren't taking the bait.

What deflection? I am just making point and will categorize this thread when another "Colleges and Universities are liberally biased" thread pops up this week.

Regardless of if THIS Community College is liberally biased or not, they have absolutely no other recourse when their professor is caught red-handed violating their own stated policies as well as possible Florida Law.

The fact that they hired her in the first place lends credence to the Liberally biased meme.

But even Liberals have to cave when they are caught BLATANTLY abusing their positions of power.

Panic, just like we're seeing here on C-D from Oblama's crazed defenders.
