Speaking as a college teacher, where I teach these assessments are perhaps the most important factor in determining faculty retention. If they are substantially negative, the employee's superiors will not tolerate his performance for long. If they are not substantially negative, a couple of "cranks" will be written off, but their comments will be remembered and if they recur, the supervisor should be alert. Also, if the department functions as law requires he should not see your remarks until after your grade is given, and your comments will be retyped to protect your identity.
I'm tempted to tell you to write that whole statement on your sheet, but in truth that's not practical, so I think your best bet is to focus on the most egregious errors. Stick to the information about his poor administrative performance-- the lack due dates, the unreturned papers, the false statements, and the discrepancy between promised and actual course content, for certain. The quashing of views section is more likely to be written off as a "disgruntled extremist" who got offended at one of his political positions and should perhaps be mentioned, but not as your primary focus.

Hope that helps!
