He Snuck Out The Backdoor When No One Was Looking
When Ken Starr (of Clinton impeachment fame) first came to Baylor University as chancellor there was enough hoopla to glitter the Texas Capitol. Yay! Look at Baylor. The esteemed Ken Starr is coming to Baptist-up the joint.
Then this happened. Baylor hired a new football coach and they started winning football games. Come to find out, they were doing it by recruiting rapists for the team players. However, they got so excited about winning that they built a $300 million football stadium so they had to cover-up the rapes to keep the team winning to fill the football stadium with something other than burning Baptist dollars.
Then the stadium bonfire got too hot and both Starr and the football coach got fired.
Well, not exactly fired in Starr’s case. He was moved over to teach at the law school because, you know, you never know if the Baylor Trustees have their own Monica Lewinsky. So, once they got all the blue dresses in Texas burned …
Ken Starr is leaving the faculty of Baylor University School of Law, three months after a campus sexual assault scandal forced him from university leadership.
Baylor officials announced Friday that Starr is parting ways with the Waco, Texas, law school where he has taught a constitutional law seminar since 2010, and called it a “mutually agreed separation.” They did not cite a reason for Starr’s departure.
You know, Sweet Madam Karma has a way with getting stuff done. History will remember Ken Starr as the doofus who indicted the President for consensual sex but covered up multiple rapes on a college campus.
Thank you Missy Karma.
Lady Karma’s sister and good right hand lady is Nemesis. Nemesis is usually sent to dispatch those who offend the Gods with the sin of hubris. Nemesis is quite busy these days with republicans from trump on down. But she never fails to balance whatever situation she is called to. And sometimes in the most extraordinary ways. Then Karma comes in. The Cosmic credit system: one screws others, one is screwed back. Again. And again. And yet again…..
1Starr needs to just fade away and stop bothering law students….and the rest of us.
2We should all toast Ms Karma with our favorite beverage tonight!
3May she visit Republicans more often!
For about 20 years I had a franchise from a company in Wacko Waco and went there about 6 times a year for meetings. Nowdays, it lives up to the wacko name.
4The world’s most legit pornographer.
5My niece lives near Austin, and was considering Baylor. I found out Ken Starr was running it, and I hoped she’d change her mind. She did. I wonder if he got a huge buyout like the guy they just ousted from Akron U after he fired profs and lowered salaries and cut athletics from a major MAC team.
6Latest Baylor scandal, football player beating his puppy to potty training it. He got a citation and may get a measly $500 fine, a**hole.
7I was told Baptists are the only people who believe the Lord can’t see through a brown paper sack coming out of the liquor store.
8@Paul
Yep. They don’t recognize each other at Red Coleman’s either.
9How much are they paying him to go away?
10As Galinda, The Good Witch says:
No Dear, Karma is only a bitch when you are!
Yuck, yuck, yuck.
11Maybe John Yoo can get him a job at his school. Not much daylight between approving of torture and approving of rape.
12Damn straight, Montag! The U.N. lists rape as torture.
13I lived in Bristol, TN, for eight years. Buckle of the Bible Belt. Some intersections had a church on all four corners. Even the Episcopalians were snake handlers.
EVERY Baptist church had pot-luck supper, prayer meeting, and choir practice on Wednesday night. Wednesday night was the best night to go to the liquor store . . . no crowd.
14While not normally being a “hang out at the hair salon” kinda guy, I gotta say, this story and it’s comments are why this is such a great joint to hang out at. Ken Starr’s karma. Nemesis. Wacko Waco. Pornographer. Liquor store bags. Galinda. And people who know who John Yoo is. Ain’t no barber shop in Texas you’ll hear these things mentioned without VERY different connotations. You folks rule.
15Thanks. We try…
16There are lawyers, many of whom are great people. Then there are snacilbupeR lawyers; the rapists, the pornographers like Kenny boy, and the John Yoo torture boys. But dayum what has happened to our institutions of higher learning, when the snacilbupeR crazies who are unfit to practice law are hired to teach law?
“What’s in a name…” There lies the absolute insanity, when ‘name recognition’ outweighs the content of character.
17As my Granddaddy said, Never put anything in writing that you don’t want read in court. Brother Starr maybe oughta have read some of Granddaddy’s wisdom.Granddaddy also said “A good name is worth more than great riches.” And Granddaddy wasn’t a lawyer or a preacher.
18Well Marge, based on your Granddaddy’s wisdom, dimStarr is a double loser.
19I was in Waco just this past week. It was my first trip to Texas (other than as a layover at Dallas/FW airport.) Part of our “showing us the Waco sights” tour included Baylor University. I’ve never seen such a pristine college campus. It was immaculate. Subterfuge masking very dirty business to keep the donations rolling in. May Starr’s name go down in infamy as an enabler of rapists and other scoundrels on par with the most despicable religious hypocrites of all time. I always believed he would sink lower than whale crap to remain a right-wing darling and this is more evidence of it.
20Ol Redneck: Bristol sounds like a likely place for a house-breaker to score on Wednesday night.
21Linda Phipps: Oh! Bristol, TN. Not Bristol P. I got now.
