Long time conservative author Dinesh D’Souza, who just became president of an evangelical college in 2010, announced his resignation today as president of King’s College. D’Souza was a member of the conservative Dartmouth Review staff while in college. He became famous during the battles in the 1990s over the issue of “political correctness” on college campus and wrote a lengthy book in 1995 titled “The End of Racism” saying that affirmative action was no longer needed because significant racial equality had been achieved.
According to D’Souza, he separated from his wife more than a year ago. But bringing his new (young, blond) fiancee, Denise Odie Joseph II, to an evangelical conference before his divorce was finalized was apparently too much for the trustees of the college. D’Souza was found to be sharing a hotel with his fiancee on September 28 by a reporter with the Christian WORLD magazine. D’Souza claimed that nothing happened that evening with his companion, which is certainly plausible. But it is hard to imagine that he had never engaged in premarital relations with a woman whose blog title and domain name was “I Denise Lust After.”
According to press reports, “D’Souza filed for divorce in California a few days after the conference” on October 4. Not soon enough for his trustees.
The anti-Obama propaganda film produced by Mr. D’Souza has grossed more than $33 million at the box office nationally, a remarkable achievement for a conspiratorial film. And just yesterday, it was announced that the DVD version of “Obama 2016” has become the #1 selling DVD in America. The film’s ridiculous main premise is that Obama’s main goal in becoming president was to reduce the global influence of the United States around the world.
Recall conservative talk radio hyperventilating because Warren earned 300k as a law prof at Harvard (for teaching one course so it went). Dinesh’s salary as president of King’s college (student body = 400 total)? $1,000,000!

I am sure the same crowd that butchers the Bible to justify civil recognition of long term committed couples can mine some verses justifying this bastards behaviour. I just hope the ex remembers the passage talking about an eye for an eye and takes him to the cleaners. If the camel in the needle passage is true losing half his possessions is good for his soul .
should read justify denying civil recognition of same sex couples. Of course I can come up with just as many passages that do justify this very recognition.
