Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit fame has an ongoing series of "The told me if I voted Republican that....." over at his site. You fill in the dots with some theoretically pernicious federal policy that some in the media and on the left....but I repeat myself....have expressed regarding voting for Republicans. Of course, the policies that are mentioned are currently being enacted by Democrats and other presumably left of center organizations.
The most recent edition is about astronomer Martin Gaskell. He has been denied the position of running the observatory for the University of Kentucky. Because he is a Christian.
Glenn's observations are great, as always. One that he bypassed was the concern expressed by the university that Mr. Gaskell might be "potentially evangelical". Not that he was confirmed to be evangelical. And no explanation of how being evangelical might make him unsuitable for the position in question. They had a fear....an irrational and unfounded fear....and acted upon it.
Which is exactly what the left says about pretty much anyone that isn't on the left. Someone's Freudian slip is showing......
I think diversity training is in order.
