Indo-Tibetan studies at Columbia University? That will give you a good understanding of life in America.

It never ceases to amaze me that the left has been so sucessful in cultivating such a a dumbed down constituency that would actually advocate for raising their own taxes.
The mind boggles.

Not much credibility .... start off with a Columbia professor and go from there. I wonder if he even knows what seditious and treasonous mean cause he needs to look at the president and his treasonous party.

Now you know where Obama´s ideas come from.
Jerks like this pollute academia.
Students and parents go into debt to sit and listen to this garbage. What a country!

He is a liberal academian which means he doesn’t have to function in the real world just in his little bubble of possibilities.
Why would anyone care what a cloistered eunuch with limited skills and intelligence have to say, he teaches only because he does not have the ability to function outside academia. With a degree in Indo-Tibetan the only work he would qualify for in the real world would involve asking if you want fries with your order.

Indo-Tibetan studies??? I guess that prepares someone to be an Occupy Wall-Streeter and sit around complaining that they can´t find a job to pay their $100k student loan for going to Columbia. Why doesn´t he just move to Tibet and live there under Chinese rule, since it´s obviously such a focal point of his life.

He could always use his Indo-Tibetan acumen and demonstrate his outrage with the time honored Indo-Tibetan pastime of self-immolation...

We promise to applaud!

Nothing is preventing the professor from paying more tax than is required. He should send the gov´t a nice paycheck.

I think his plan is, first be block captain then his brilliance will put him in a position with the ruling cabal where he can determine exactly who qualifies as having enough ´patriotism´ in the New America. These are the kind of insane, angry, zealots who show up every time a draconian dictator pops up. Nice job on the curious intellectual front, Columbia.

I believe this French-for-shower bag is Uma Thurman´s father.

Every crazy lib from all walks of life are now crawling out of the woodwork screaming for higher taxes - with no response from the GOP!

This is why they lose elections. Fight back or die, fools.

Great. Now we´ve lost the Indo-Tibetan Studies voters. Is there no end to the catastrophe we suffered in November?

Seditious? Treasonous? I believe that´s how they referred to the Founding Fathers. There is no doubt that our modern "progressive" communists would have sided with the Red Coats.

#8, hang in there. They´ve run for two election cycles on W, straw men, and skin pigmentation. I believe that one day Democraps will feel shame at the mention of the name "Barack Milhouse O´Dearleader"... Tbc

Since "Tibet" as a culture no longer exists, and mostly chinese folks live there, ...he must have plenty of time to enrich his understanding of America....maybe in the afternoons?
What a moron.

Err, #4 rather

Hey dingbat! Our country was FOUNDED on rejecting taxes!!!!

Let´s deport him.

Mebbe he kin gain a first-hand appreciation of suppression of expression in his fave lands...
how about mebbe in China?
That´s close enough to Indo-Tibet...

See ya later!

WOW, we have a Lib full court press on the fiscal cliff issue. At least we will learn ´who´ all the Libs are for later reference!

Things seem to be escalating very rapidly.

Dark mist descending.......

I have never seen a help wanted ad for someone with a degree in Indo-Tibetan studies.

Yes, #10, he is UmaThurman´s father.

Quick, call names! Curse, Villify the American body politic! Never mind about real suggestions for solutions to the problems!

Educated beyond mental competence. And this guy is just one of hundreds of thousands who influence the children!!

This idiocy is beyond comment.


Girl´s Hubby

University professors are overwhelmingly Marxist. This perspective should be no surprise.

Folks, don´t forget that Geithner has a degree in Asian studies.

His translation of the Bardo Thosgrol offers no advantages over the classic by Lama Dawa-Samdup and W.Y. Evans-Wentz. Moderns can (and should) giggle at Evans-Wentz´s theosophy, but they could be led astray by Thurman´s unique translations. I very much distrust unique translations!

We should feel sorry for Professor Thurman. He is too stupid to understand that Socialism genocided Tibet. Bless his heart.

I am ever more convinced that the Fifteenth Dalai Lama will be an American Objectivist.
