A Gay Student is expelled from a Kentucky "Christian" University for comments made on MySpace...


...which causes the school's access to state funds to be called into question.

Unfortunately, Gov. Fletcher (Republican-of course) failed to do the right thing and properly veto the earmarked $11 million. He's decided to wuss out and "leave it up to the courts."

And this during a budget crunch? What potentially valuable programs were cut to make this money available for a pharmacy program that cannot even be accredited?

The Gov. really should have jumped in, as you say, it would have been the right thing to do. Unfortunately few are willing to commit political suicide to do the right thing.

As a private institution the University can pretty much make up whatever bigoted asshole rules they want, but that should definately lose them any public funds they would have been given.
