...reports the Blaze.


Harvard Professors Hauled in Big Cash Consulting for Gadhafi | The Blaze

"You really can’t make this stuff up: a consulting company founded by Harvard professors has received millions of dollars from Moammar Gadhafi for, in effect, rendering the services of propaganda machine to the deranged dictator."

The Boston Globe reports:
“The really nefarious aspect of this is that it reinforced in Khadafy’s mind that he truly was an international intellectual world figure, and that his ideas of democracy were to be taken seriously,’’ said Dirk Vandewalle, associate professor at Dartmouth College and author of “A History of Modern Libya.’’

Local consultants aided Khadafy - The Boston Globe

Another reason why even though both my kids are "gifted" and would probably be accepted into these elite, radical institutions of propaganda they will not be getting any of my money to further their radical agenda. (Hey, they get enough from the likes of Khadafy!)

I doubt you read the articles provided in the links. This was not a "single professor."

Oh, sorry, I mistyped. Here, let me fix that. . .

Liberals are bad. Duh! Haven't you figured out that that's always the point? I mean, if a few professors from a single university's actions don't prove beyond all doubt that Liberals are bad, I don't know what will convince you.

All better now?

How nice of you to tell us the intent of the OP. I think I would rather hear it from the OP.
