Goodbye Freedom of Speech

[KevinTheOmnivore]

UC-Boulder is a state institution, so the governor has some right to comment on the matter. And it's not the like the governor is the only person complaining about this guy. He published something incredibly stupid. He continues to say things that are incredibly stupid. He has apparently refused to apologize for the comment, a simple, cursory gesture, even though he himself admits that "This was a gut response opinion speech written in about four hours. It's not completely reasoned and thought through."

There's no executive power allowing the governor to fire this guy. It's not exactly like the governor can do a whole lot if the guy doesn't get fired.
