Haha, right on cue. Assshat Terry spews forth his hate filled blather thinking he can get away with it yet again, this day. Little problem there Ter-ter, someone recorded your dumbasss. And put it out there for ALL to embrace your idiocy.
Ohhh-nooeeeesss. What's a good leftist liberal to do once they are caught showing their true colors, yet again?!?
What? Apologize? That's it? As in just say I sawwwy, and it will go away? I can now claim it's "old news" or say "what difference does it make" and say it's time to move on? That's in the past?
Wow. OKay. That seems easy enough. Say your sorry and get a free pass from my fellow leftists! Great!

RE: Professor Rants Against “Racist, Misogynist, Money-Grubbing” Republicans
Michelle Malkin has never been treated with anywhere near the respect and flattery that Establishment Washington gave to this person for ~50 years:
A few years ago (2006-07-ish), there was talk of a new anti-Nixon movie getting made, and it was supposed to have Annette Bening portraying the person (Helen Thomas) in the photograph. Annette is getting some mileage, but that I think that would've been the most "she-didn't-look-anything-like-that" casting decision since Liz Taylor played Cleopatra.
For whatever reason, the movie (based on the play "Dirty Tricks" by John Jeter) hasn't been made and who knows if it ever will.
After a lifetime of slanting the news in a Leftward direction, Helen Thomas became noticeably sloppy in her old age and started letting drop some rather choice anti-Israel type of statements. That cost her a few of the gooey testimonial dinners just before she died.

Apparently kids at Eastern Connecticut, whatever that is, were smart enough to record that idiot. So, who cares what opinion he has? It clearly wasn't swallowed whole.

Good for him. I hope/assume he made the same speech to his students. That's an important lesson for ALL of us as teachers/mentors.

I once apologized for speeding and the cop accepted it as he wrote me a ticket. This guy is only saying he's sorry because he was outted. We all know he fully meant what he said and was out of line bringing that up in a classroom setting. We all also know that his radical left wing bias will always seep through his teachings and infect the young kids in his class.
He needs to go. Now.

C'mon Eagle - I'd take her over Helen Thomas/Janet Reno any day and so would 99% of men that weren't blind.

How?
Because anyone with common sense knows that Michelle Obama is not an ugly witch.
She may not be model material but she isn't ugly. Therefore, anyone who would say that is simply a hater or a racist.

I can go with hater, but nothing he posted relates to anything being racist.

Yes but taken with everything else he posts, I think it's pretty obvious.
