A Michigan State University professor has lost his teaching duties after telling his students in a video lecture that Republicans "raped this country," among other derogatory remarks.

William Penn -- a professor in the university's creative writing program -- was featured in a YouTube video (see above) in which he told students "if you go to the Republican convention in Florida, you see all of the old Republicans with the dead skin cells washing off them."

"They are cheap. They don't want to pay taxes because they have already raped this country and gotten everything out of it they possibly could,"

Penn later said that he doesn't mean to offend anyone.

Then on the healthcare beat:

Now Stephanie Handler, who works for University of California, San Francisco, ups the repugnant by wishing death on all Obamacare “nonbelievers.” "Deny them health care, let them die." Not only reprehensible, but oh-how-creepy — “nonbelievers.”

So, politicized death panels. Pretty much what I expected.

And then there's this:

Amanda Carpenter @amandacarpenter
GOP beat gun control, changed Obama's mind on Syria, is holding the line on amnesty. We can defund Obamacare, too!

allanbrauer @allanbrauer
@amandacarpenter May your children all die from debilitating, painful and incurable diseases.

Brauer was eventually dismissed from his leadership position in the Sacramento Democratic Party for this.

So, what does it all mean? Just random assclowns, I expect.

They are just taking their cue from the President.

Only when they get caught. As long as the trash talk stays in the faculty lounge, they are fine.
