I wouldn't go that far. It's a minor victory in a war the country is losing.

Oh no, it's a GREAT DAY! EVERY single thing that seems positive to our "side" makes it a GREAT DAY! An absolute "leg tingle" fantastic day! Oh, it's just so wonderful and fantastic! It's GREAT! We can now be PROUD to be Americans! Our nation is GREAT again!

By God it is a banner day! I think I'll go fly the flag and light a couple of fire crackers.Come on Leo,are you really serious? Jerry Falwell Jr ? His Father turned out to be one of the biggest ultra right wing frauds of all time. If this is a victory in Leo world I want to see what a bad news day looks like.Yikes.

Too bad our Catholic Universitys do not stand up for thier values like that. That is, if they have any values anymore.

My first two posts were parodies of the overwhelming over the top fawning that media and others engage in when the topic has anything to do with Obama. The organization in question was granted status when their charter claimed to be engaging in democratic party functions and activities as a pro life, pro family, moderate sector of the party. They then changed horses mid-stream to the pro choice left leaning sector of the party. I agree with hawk it's a minor thing overall however I am glad to see their privileges revoked since they chose to do what they agreed not to do, the wrong thing. It has nothing to do with Falwell Sr., only to do with the agreement between the school and the organization, but I do give you credit for upholding the liberal pledge of turning every topic into a bashing of someone whether relevant to the specific subject under discussion or not.

Don't forget about how they can take topic that doesn't even have anything to do with Obama, and they make it about him, in order to fawn over him. That's my favorite.

I don't think it's a minor thing at all, not when we have the DNC coming out and saying, "For Liberty University to deprive the College Democrats of the same opportunity as College Republicans to associate and be a recognized as a campus organization violates that fundamental principle of fairness and teaches the students the wrong message about civil life as they move from college into the broader world."

The fact that the College Democrats lied to get chartered apparently mean nothing to the Democrats. Not only that, they are trying to spin it as the College Democrats are now a victim because the fundamental principles of fairness have been violated. Fairness? Uhm, hey, you know what? They lied!!! The fair thing to do is revoke their charter, which is exactly what happened.

And the kicker is, the DNC says that getting punished for lying sends the wrong message about civil life, because you shouldn't be punished for lying. Well, at least not if you're a Democrat.

And they're saying this with a straight face.
