I don’t know about you but I am so sick of liberal college students and professors who are too immature to handle the presence of someone with whom they disagree politically.

Barack Obama not only continued most of Bush’s policies, he expanded them. Do you think he would provoke this kind of reaction at the University of Denver?

Denver university in uproar over plans to honor George W. Bush

Former President George W. Bush will be honored in September by the University of Denver, but not for “Improving the Human Condition,” as previously planned.

The university’s Josef Korbel School of International Studies scrapped the idea after students and faculty expressed outrage over the designation.

“Former President George W. Bush left behind a legacy of human rights abuses, including the torture of detainees in extraterritorial jails, preemptive war, domestic surveillance programs and other egregious actions that deleteriously impact the human condition,” wrote Christine Hart, an alum of the college, in an online petition that has been signed by more than 1,100 people since June 23.

In addition, about 20 faculty members circulated a letter to university officials saying they were “shocked, disappointed and embarrassed” that Bush would be considered an appropriate recipient for a humanitarian award, according to the Denver Post.

Bush is scheduled to be the keynote speaker at the Korbel School’s annual fundraising dinner on Sept. 9. The blowup creates an awkward situation not just for Bush, but also for the school. The annual dinner is its biggest fundraiser.
