Biased reporting is causing problems left and right, and Stone\u2019s exclusion of the facts clearly demonstrates that he\u2019s fully willing to omit inconvenient truths from articles to bolster his own narrative.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bias and fake news set aside, it\u2019s clear that there could easily be a personal motive for their support of this letter, as it\u2019s no secret that the vast majority of Democrats are calling for impeachment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These individuals are supposed to be teaching their students about the law, and an intimate understanding of the law should include an examination of the partisan politics that can fuel it. It&#8217;s essential for all instructors to teach their students in a nonpartisan manner. In doing so, they help students form their own opinions on the issues that matter, rather than swaying their views towards one side or another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fact that this group of law professors publically sided against President Trump demonstrates a dangerous precedent for their students\u2014that is, partisan hackery in the legal profession. It is absolutely inappropriate for anyone claiming to be a law professor to be publically taking sides in a case this severe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">True, a lawyer could take sides (as that is their job), but a law professor has an obligation to his students to teach them in an objective, nonpartisan manner by discussing the ramifications of such a situation and presenting <em>both<\/em> arguments in a fair and balanced light, not stating what they believe is the \u201ccorrect\u201d outcome.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Opening up the conversation and letting both sides have their say is the way that issues as crucial as impeachment ought to be handled, but with political tensions at an all time high, attempts at such an approach might be futile.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As such, it\u2019s absolutely inappropriate for thsese professors to take sides and claim that President Trump has engaged in impeachable conduct. This sets a terrible precedent for their students, and demonstrates that they\u2019re letting their own personal politics get in the way of their commitment to education.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A group of seven San Diego law professors recently backed a supposedly unbiased open letter stating that President Trump had engaged in impeachable conduct, a shocking display of partisan hackery hidden behind their \u201cLaw Professor\u201d titles.\u00a0 All seven lawyers are partisan liberals\u2014a piece of crucial information excluded from the original article written by Ken Stone&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1552,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2088","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-politics"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Seven San Diego Liberals Hide Behind Their &quot;Law Professor&quot;
