Anybody catch the mistake in this Torch story?

Stl, he did the same with anyone who tried to question his reasoning for either his posts or his politics. It didn't matter who you were, if you didn't see his side of things and immediately stand with him, he labelled you and lumped you in with the rest of the "Liberals".

What is wrong with that?!  Being called a Liberal is akin to being called a God.

Ralph, you had to really be apart of the board at that time to know what Stl and I mean with the banned poster. I don't feel being a liberal is wrong, but the way the poster attacked liberals was offensive to many, and it was really bad when it was 7 or 8 news threads with scathing conservative talk about how McCain was better than Obama or how some Republican was a better option that a "dummycrat", as he often referred to Dems. Anything else I'm missing here, Stl?

Completely agree.

Read this caption from a photo in the past week's Torch. It's from a story about athletic achievements of VU student-athletes. http://www.valpotorch.com/news/article_9fe7d3f8-2ab6-11e2-a6ba-001a4bcf6878.html

QuoteValparaiso University student athletes show success not only on the athletic field, but also academically. This year, VU will have a 100 percent student athletic graduation rate.
