College Hack Suggests Executing Republicans

Of course, she's just exercising her free speech and all that, and what the heck, Republicans have it coming, don't they?

The venemous Jessica Bryan naturally portrays herself as a victim, which is standard operating procedure when deranged liberals are caught in the act.

A professor at North Idaho College says it's all right to talk about executing "anyone who's ever voted Republican" as long as it's said with a smile.

The belief was expressed by instructor Jessica Bryan when her comments were challenged by a student, Linda Cook, who served as an aide to the late U.S. Rep. Helen Chenoweth, R-Idaho, and is a longtime supporter of the Republican Party.

Cook wrote to the school asking for a refund on fees she paid for a course taught by Bryan, after she withdrew because of the instructor's comments. Cook told the Spokane Spokesman-Review that Bryan used every class period in the English composition course to criticize and disparage Republicans, including the suggestion of the death penalty for everyone who chooses to support a Republican with a vote.

But hey, she said it with a smile, so it's OK!

Among the allegations: Bryan reported President George W. Bush won the election "because people … can't read," and, regarding the death penalty: "First we line up everyone who can't think and right behind them, anyone who's ever voted Republican."

"Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that anyone would take it seriously," Bryan, who doesn't deny making the statements, told the newspaper. "They were always said with a smile."

She said the comments were an attempt "to get my students to think."

Yes, I'm sure they think you're a nutcase.

Another reader confirmed to the Sentinel Bryan does engage in "unrelated rants" but praised her for them. "It is through her sometimes unrelated rants about society that make you start to think about your very own viewpoint," said Jake Donahue.

Still another reader, Jessyka, said something similar, describing Bryan's lectures as "random and extreme."

She sounds like a perfect fit for the John Edwards campaign.

While the story linked says she's a professor, this source notes she's an instructor and her link on the college site doesn't distinguish. For all I can gather, she's just a frustrated community college hack who's pissed off because she's on a dead-end career path. Whatever the case may be, she has no business teaching students with such an attitude.
