This was a good speech by Rush. Good idea to post it. He did a great rant recently on the folly of majoring in "Classical Studies," as one Wall St. protestor did and now complains she won't get a job with that degree.
He's full of shit because he's never been there. Critical thinking is the primary skill to learn and keep, not professor opinions. And, I had right-wing professors also. Rush lacks critical thinking. He uses about 20 or so mantras over and over as Gospel truth.
Yup...and I'm sure you had some profs you had no clue to their voting history.
Not only that, but a "liberal professor" is a conspiracy theory. He would have to prove a "liberal" prof did in fact let politics get in the way. Does a "liberal" MATH teacher really have that much sway? Does a "conservative" painting teacher have that much sway?
What a pile of dog doo. Rush flunked out of College, he did not have the balls to serve in the Military and now he wants the young in the US to follow his example. College is a great place to learn how to be a critical thinker. Listening to Rush Limbaugh is a great way to become a critical stinker. Take the Med Students out of college and let them listen to Rush to become free and critical thinkers. Rush, with his big mic and small brain, is now attacking the intellects of this country.
what evidence fits the theory. If it seems rational, the students trust the teachers enough to believe the theory as fact without raising their own questions.
Something else I have noticed about those that possess a proper "intellect." Everything that goes on in life is surrounded by one big argument. You don't get by in life without arguing your ideas, regardless if the idea is truely right. If you are able to stump your "opponent" in an argument, you will win every time. Colleges teach this
I thought that Rush had some good points here, but his underlying premise, that college makes you a sheep, is really flawed. If the students are individual enough to rebel against all authority, then the only way that they can be reached is by persuasive arguments from inspiring people. If a rebel is 'converted' by their college professor, then it doesn't mean that they have become a mindless sheep, couldn't it mean that the professor could be right? Or at least have a good point?
Professors generally know what they're talking about. Why? Because they are intelligent people who have spent their lives researching and thinking about what they teach. I get the feeling that Rush thinks that anyone who doesn't agree with him is a sheep. If colleges made their students into 'good' conservatives, he would be singing its praises.
Not necessarily. Students leave their home after despizing their parents, only to venture off to a place where they admire their new mentors. They believe that they lack the proper intelligence required to operate in the modern world, so they trust the professors to institutionalize their minds. This is why you see so many liberal professors able to pursuade open minded students that things such as global warming exist, and that the world really did evolve from a cloud of dust. They look at...
"f a rebel is 'converted' by their college professor, then it doesn't mean that they have become a mindless sheep, couldn't it mean that the professor could be right? Or at least have a good point?"
Or, like ANY exposure to new stuff...a "rebel" might change his mind.
Rush doesn't mind when former rebels become older conservatives.
haha. that is why he makes 25 million dollars a year. How much does the President of the U.S. make (government job)? $500,000? Some failure in life, eh?
Are you serious! So that is what is so important to you? Money? Is that how you evaluate your doctor, by how much money he makes. I suppose those great Men and Women in our armed services are really dumb for SERVING this nation by your retarded analogy. I shiver to think what you would call Christ. I could think of many singers and musicians that make tons of money, maybe the Right would like to make them the leader of the GOP. Hahahahaha!
By the way, would you go to a non-college degree doctor? Given your thought pattern, you probably would. As long as those on the Right keep listening to the likes of Rush, thinking people will continue to move to the left. I hope Rush do not hype the Right into a book burning campaign. Hahahahaha!
" haha. that is why he makes 25 million dollars a year. How much does the President of the U.S. make (government job)? $500,000? Some failure in life, eh? "
So you judge sucess in life by how much money one makes?
So I guess Jenna Jameson and Rush are about equals since she makes 23.2 million?
This video clearly reflects the Rush Limbaugh audience. Idiotic, close minded fools, with no college education! They love Rush because he shares their disdain for higher education and learning. Limbaugh and his followers should be forced to college, where they might actually gain some wisdom, rather than spewing insanity day after day!
Is there any sacred land of individualism in the world of conservatism? what are you talking about? I certainly know something about you. You would kill Socrats twice if given chance today. Grow.

Hmmm...I wonder why Rush doesnt have this kind of ire for say RELIGION!
You know...that guy teaching people? Who they all respect and look up to? Who generally have a right wing view. And oh yeah...
you can't argue with ministers because they talk to "god".
But colleges indoctrinate.
Oh...don't churches teach.... DOCTRINE?

That is why Rush does not like Barack Obama; Obama was excellent student and now he is President, go figure.
Rush could never aspire to be President because he is too dumb.

You are right Rush. The next time you go to see a Doctor, make sure you get one that is a free thinker and not a college graduate. LOL!!!
Now I know why the Republican Party is on a down slide. Idiots like this are running the party. LOL!!!! LMAO!!!!!!
Lets have a book burning everyone. LOL

Did you actually listen to the video? Are you disagreeing that college is about group think and not individual expression and thought?
I have a Chemistry degree. I don't think that matters at all, but you apparently do.
