I hope that Richwine lands on his feet. We need intellectual honesty about important issues.

The truth hurts. It usually hurts the truth teller the most.

AP, who cannot find something nice to write about the Herritage Foundation if it were attached to their backside was quick to find this matter and send it along.

Is the assertion about immigrants having lower IQs factually incorrect, or do people just not want to hear it because it’s politically incorrect?

Wonder who at Heritage pushed him out. I don’t believe this was his decision alone.
Unbelievable how weak our side are!

The truth runs up against political correctness and Truth loses. Welcome to the USSA.

The comment was unhelpful. It was a huge distraction and only made it easy for the liberals to dismiss the report.

Telling the truth might not make you attract a lot of fiends, but you’ll make the right friends.

Political Correctness is like a virus. It infects and infests everything.

Even the Heritage Foundation.

A “conservative” from Harvard writes a piece that offers red meat to those who want to bash conservatism in the press.

Hint: anyone who graduates from Harvard is not truly conservative.

It’s called killing resistence to immigration reform in conservative circles from the inside out.

That’s why you frame both sides of the argument.

This is how the establishment works.

Harvard is one of the few schools where the elite establishment have always sent their children who will one day take over the reins.

Some take on the “liberal” persona, others take on the “conservative” persona.

But if they go into the power circles after graduation, they’re ultimately all working for the big money people.

One more note: no worries about Richwine. Harvard grads can always land on their feet and do quite well.

“Controversy” or “controversial” are the newest media meme.

And it only applies to guns and/or conservatives.

Why the hell would he resign? His resignation, whether his idea or the HF’s, just lends credence to the idea that he did something wrong when he didn’t.

THIS is why we are losing, folks. Conservatives cower in fear and go away when we should tell our opponents to go jump in the lake.

Don't know who pushed him out, but you would think the President of the Heritage Foundation could have prevented it.

They don’t have “low IQs”, they are merely uneducated and seeking low skill trades. They “only want the jobs nobody in America will do”.

Right.

And then we are told about how brilliant their children are and how they should go to our universities (and seek the jobs that other citizens DO want).
