Sarah to speak at Falwell College/aka/Liberty University, next Saturday–Students forced out of dorms to make room for Sarah’s entourage. UPDATE//: IT’S EVEN WORSE…STUDENTS FROM U of VIRGINIA EJECTED
October 2, 2011
Sarah continues her attempt to stay relevant to fundamentalist Christian extremists with an appearance at cult-college Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, on October 8.
Chancellor Jerry Falwell, Jr., son of founder Jerry Falwell, has ordered the decks–or at least the dormitories–cleared, in advance of Sarah’s arrival.
From a “boots on the ground” source in Virginia, I’m hearing:
“a whole dorm full of students were told to go home for the weekend so that her entourage could stay there. Some of them were pretty bent out of shape.”
That’s our Sarah: making new friends wherever she goes.
UPDATE: The Christian Dominionists-in-Training at Liberty U are not the students being evicted. It’s actually students at the nearby University of Virginia at Lynchburg.
As reported by local television station WSET, students living in TravelLodge motel rooms converted for use as dorm rooms have been told they have to clear out by Thursday and stay away until Sunday, because Sarah Palin is coming to town.
“We have to get everything up out of here, like we’re going home for good,” said student Antwan Jenkins. Incidentally, many of the evicted students are African-Americans. As I report in THE ROGUE, proximity to people of color makes Sarah uncomfortable.
Ralph Reavis, president of University of Virginia-Lynchburg, is unapologetic. “Sarah Palin is coming to town,” he said.
Long Live The Queen!
