An adjunct professor at the University of Arizona who shared sexual and violent fantasies about a blogger's child has resigned her position. Now she's claiming victim status, and the blogger's site has been shut down several times by web attacks.

"Ooh. Two year old boy. Sounds hot. You live in Colorado, I see. Hope no one Jon-Benets your baby," wrote Dr. Debbie Frisch, a psychology instructor (Got any guesses what attracted her to that field?) at the University of Arizona. Elsewhere she wrote to Jeff Goldstein, "if I woke up tomorrow and learned that someone else had shot you and your 'tyke' it wouldn’t slow me down one iota. You aren't 'human' to me." Another of Frisch's posts on Protein Wisdom requested, "Give your pathetic progeny (I sure hope that mofo got good genes from his mama!) a big fat tongue-filled kiss from me! LOTS AND LOTS OF SALIVA from Auntie MOONBAT, if you don’t mind!"

Frisch calls herself an "expert in decision science." I'd hate to see the decisons novices in that field make. To think such madness, to write it down, to attach one's name to it, to repeat it--the chain of bad judgment is long. Is it at all shocking that this troubled woman thinks that Ward Churchill's observations about 9/11 are "brilliant"?

Despite the cybertrail, Frisch has the temerity to label her detractors "rightwingnuts," "nutcases," "nutty," and, perhaps with the aid of a thesaurus, "looneytunes," "whackjobs," and "unhinged." I believe the term they use in psychology is "projection."

All that's missing is the race card. I wasn't able to open the link to inside higher ed. It kept timing out. What a nut!

Adjunct or not, do these Universities ever think to thoroughly interview people for professorships? Or, do the "educators" go insane and get nuts while there? Scary the people who are teaching.

Bet things like this wouldn't happen if Kerry was in the White House.

The left has reduced itself to nothing more than a group of people shouting cliches. We have all heard the illiterate labels they place on those who disagree. "right-wing nut" "homophobes" "intolerant" ,etc.
It is pathetic when an individual,unable to defend their ideas, has to parrot a list of cliches.
This has become the leftist professors self-defense when caught in a bad situation, label the accuser. This physchology professor is in dire need of medical treatment.

Dan,

1.) This woman is nuts.

2.) She's not left, just nuts.

3.) She's not a professor of anything.

An "adjunct instructor" is not even an asst. prof., on the tenure-track or off of it.

I wish it were so -- hell, I just got an offer the other day for a one-year Instructor job. But I think it's going to be at least another 10-15 years before I make professor...
