re: LSU responds to Rouses “controversy”

I for one am relieved. I will now be able to sleep knowing my flagship is deeply troubled.

Yeah, this isn't a great year for LSU to be indiscriminately trying to shitcan their own boosters.

Can someone explain how this is different from people boycotting Nike for supporting Kaepernick

Winn Dixie making a come back...... Wait that name....

Delchamps making a come back....

when they're not busy rushing over to the frat house to check out the deadly noose situation in the fireplace, they're "deeply troubled" by a guy who gives them money going to a protest...but not troubled quite enough to stop taking the money, only just troubled enough to virtue signal about it in the newspaper

That they can’t separate those breaking into capital from they much larger group of others there to support Trump and also to support raising objections to results which is something Democrats do all the time is typical hypocrisy of media and Democrats. Now some even trying to disbar Senators who raised objections.

quote:

---

The last three times a Republican has been elected president — Trump in 2016 and George W. Bush in both 2000 and 2004 — Democrats in the House have brought objections to the electoral votes in states the GOP nominee won. In early 2005 specifically, Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., along with Rep. Stephanie Tubbs, D-Ohio, objected to Bush’s 2004 electoral votes in Ohio.

Illinois Senator Dick Durbin appears to be even more incensed at Senator Josh Hawley’s plan to object to the Electoral College vote.

“The political equivalent of barking at the moon,” Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said of Hawley joining the challenge to electoral slates. “This won’t be taken seriously, nor should it be. The American people made a decision on Nov. 3rd and that decision must and will be honored and protected by the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives.”

Brave Sir Dick seems to forget he was singing a different tune in 2005. Then, it was Democrats questioning the results of the Ohio vote, which went narrowly for George Bush. Durbin had words of praise for Boxer then:
“Some may criticize our colleague from California for bringing us here for this brief debate,” Durbin said on the Senate floor following Boxer’s objection, while noting that he would vote to certify the Ohio electoral votes for Bush. “I thank her for doing that because it gives members an opportunity once again on a bipartisan basis to look at a challenge that we face not just in the last election in one State but in many States.”

In fact, the Ohio electoral vote challenge was only the beginning. Rumors and conspiracy theories swirled around the outcome on election night that saw Bush winning Ohio by a close, but the surprisingly comfortable margin of 120,000 votes.

So why are so many of these headlines familiar to us today? Mother Jones: “Recounting the Election: Was Ohio stolen?”

New York Times: “Glitch Found in Ohio Counting”

They even included some voting machine controversies.

Are there any major universities left that aren't full woke?
