What are students learning at Michigan State University? Well, if they’re sitting in Professor William Penn’s Creative Writing class, they’re discovering that Republicans are “dying white people.” A student caught Penn on tape unleashing a hateful rant against conservatives that must have left his pupils with some interesting notes.
In the middle of his almost ten-minute tirade, Penn informed students that Republicans are old people with “dead skin cells washing off them” who raped the United States to get “everything out of it they possibly could.” He also took an opportunity to ridicule 2012 Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney and his wife Ann. Keep in mind the courageous Ann lives with and battles the unpredictable disease multiple sclerosis.
“Who here wants to be Mitt Romney? Married to her? Having José wash your car? […] Forgive me. Even if you’re Republican, I don’t mean to offend you.”
He could’ve fooled me.
