Cornel West Angry with ObamaPresident Obama’s African-American supporters are in turmoil after one of their most prominent members, Princeton University professor Cornel West unleashed a powerful, race-tinged attack against his former friend.
West ripped Obama, calling him a “white man with black skin” and “a black mascot of Wall Street oligarchs and . . . corporate plutocrats,” reports The Washington Post.
In the interviews, which have roiled progressives, West also described the president as “head of the American killing machine and proud of it.”

I dont suppose Princeton would fire a conservative white professor for saying George Bush was a "black man in white skin" if for instance he said so in reference to Bush starting another inner city entitlement program or something akin?

another case of liberal hypocrisy

So West was fired over it?
 
ref: "Was West fired"

I dont think so, he has a lot going for him as far as Princeton is concerned, or too much I should say,
he's black, liberal, outspoken, I think Princeton is just hoping this thing gets buried in some obscure political forum.

I doubt main strem media wants it for numerous reasons, first and foremost its a slap at thier meal ticket, the great one

If I were a moderator of this forum I would ban every single person who decided they should call out hypothetical hypocrisy.

Look, you don't get to make up a hypothetical scenario, claim your political opponent would or would not do something that is hypocritical, and walk away thinking you've made some ****ing point. If some conservative professor made some bizarre statement about something Bush hypothetically may have done, you have no idea how the university would have responded. Maybe the theoretical hypothetical conservative professor would potentially maybe also have "a lot going for him" at Princeton and not get fired or not fired (which you didn't bother to even check but still declared hypocrisy).

Dumbest thread of the day.
