My Response to a Tired Liberal Professor

May 25, 2015

Home to Roanoke last weekend, I picked up a copy of the Roanoke Times Opinion page and found this gem: http://www.roanoke.com/opinion/ryan-biblical-bigotry/article_295411ca-f931-5f4a-a215-cb570a3669a8.html I figured that this liberal relic deserved a response, and so I sent the following letter to the Times, though they (as of yet) have not seen fit to post my response.  Read Professor…
