Matt Barber’s Sister to Discuss Outrageous Classroom Ordeal
Janna Barber, an 18-year-old freshman, will be a guest tonight on Fox News Channel's "The O’Reilly Factor" to discuss an outrageous assignment she and other students were given by Andrew Hallam, a professor at Metro State College in Denver, Colorado. Janna is the sister of Matt Barber, who is the Director of Cultural Affairs with Liberty Counsel and Associate Dean with Liberty University School of Law.
Hallam, who said that "Bush Bashing" and saying foul words are two of his favorite activities, told students to bash Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin by writing an essay that "undermines, criticizes and contradicts" the "fairy tale image" of Palin which "Republicans may wish ... the American people to believe." He then singled out Republican students and allegedly "chuckled" as other students began bullying and harassing them with foul language.
Janna Barber will appear on "The O'Reilly Factor" tonight at the top of the program, beginning at 8:00 p.m. ET and again at 11:00 p.m. ET. Janna was interviewed earlier today on "America’s Newsroom."
What Janna Barber experienced in a public school classroom is inexcusable humiliation and intolerance. Liberal elitism and intolerance pervades secular higher education. It is no wonder why Liberty University cannot erect buildings and classrooms fast enough to accommodate the tsunami of students clamoring for a Christian education. By the end of this academic year, Liberty University will have more than 50,000 students in its residential and distance learning programs.
Persecution
Bestselling author David Limbaugh uses dozens of examples, many from Liberty Counsel's own cases, to demonstrate how liberals have declared war on Christianity in our culture, and misuse the law to force Christians out of the public square.
