Bennish had been on paid leave from Overland High School in suburban Aurora since March 1 while Cherry Creek School District determined whether he violated a district rule that teachers must present balancing viewpoints in the classroom.
During a Feb. 1 lecture in a geography class, Bennish said some of Bush's State of the Union address the night before "sounds a lot like the things that Adolf Hitler used to say."
Man, what was that guy smoking? Good thing we put the smack down on him. We can't possible tolerate anyone making the suggestion that an American President could have anything at all in common with a crazed genocidal dictator..
That's just plain CRAZY talk, right?
He sounds almost like that nutty comedian chick. What was her name, oh yeah - Rosie O'Donnel.
Rosie who dared to say on her first appearance on the View that "Radical Christianity is as threatening to us as Radical Islam."
Oh. MY. GOD. How could she say that? It's not like any radical Christians have set off bombs or deployed chemical biological weapons like Anthrax on American soil. I mean, as long as you don't count the Selma Church Bombings, WACO, Oklahoma City, the bombing of dozens of gay clubs and shootings and murder at abortion clinics by people such as friends of Randal Terry of Operation Rescue and the Bombing of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta by Eric Robert Rudolph.
Except for all that, it's not like we've every had any Christian Terrorism. What the frak was she thinking?
We can have people saying stuff like that IN AMERICA. We're all like Lee Greenwood, we're Proud To Be Americans, where at least we know we're free (to be harassed, harried and threatened for speaking our minds.) Where the hell does she think she gets the right, or the freedom to say batshit like that?
amendment 1. Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Oh ok, fine - so Congress can't make it illegal - but we can sure make it pretty damned uncomfortable can't we?
Where did Rosie get the naked gall to suggest the the deaths of a half-million Iraqis might just be the fault of - gasp - America. If the terrorists killed all those people - except obviously for those who got Shock and Awed into the next life right up front - and you say it's America's fault, you must be saying that Americans are Terrorist right?

On Wednesday’s show, O’Donnell (who leaves the show for good in three weeks) blasted Hasselbeck for not coming to her defense on the matter. "Do you believe that I think our troops are terrorists, Elisabeth?"She pressed: "Yes or no? Do you believe it, yes or no?"
"Excuse me, let me speak!" Hasselbeck snapped. "Let me finish!"
