1.) It's not like they are giving
College Credit for Trolling Forums Promoting Intelligent
Design
2.) This is an Internship. You can get College Credit for an Internship with Rush Limbaugh or with the K.K.K. if you prefer that.
3.) This is not just University of Oregon, but you can get college Credit for an Internship with Organizing for America (or Rush Limbaugh or the
K.K.K.) at
*ANY* Accredited University and many Community Colleges with 4 year Undergraduate programs anywhere in the United States.
4.) Organizing for America is not directly affiliated in any way with the Office of the President or Barrack Obama himself. Organizing for America is
not authorized by any member of the Executive Branch or Executive committee. It was a private foundation setup by the Democratic National Congress.
It's akin to saying the The Heritage Foundation was Bush's personal Gestapo.
5.) What on earth makes you think that Oregon is Liberal? Of Registered Voters, if you take the gratuitous 3% Margin for Error, Democrats and
Republicans are split right down the center in Oregon. However, unlike Republicans from other States who only see Red and Blue, both sides work
together in Oregon as Oregonians, not as zombie-automatons putting their Party and it's rhetoric above Common Sense, Decency, and Unity. Oregonians
are the most likely in the Union to vote against Party lines...because we vote with our Conscience, not blindly follow what our Party tells us to do.
Oregonians don't take too kindly with anyone telling us what to do, whether it be a Party Convention, a private Foundation, the Federal Government,
or even the President himself.
