This is excellent news. A poll at Colorado showed that the democrat to Republican faculty ratio was 30-1 and recently a student got an F on a paper the teacher had the class write "Why Bush is a war criminal", but he wrote "Why Saddam is a war criminal".

Its time to turn these propaganda centers that Baldue von Schirach would be proud of back into learning institutions.

I have said that certain institutions that liberals turned into their own property need to be evened out. One is the media and conservatives have made inroads there (still not enough) and the other is government. The others are the judiciary and academia, which are protected by libs because they lose at the ballot box.

As previously stated, the bullies on campus are socialists, as it was in NAZI Germany.

"'Critical thought and debate are no longer taught. Students learn rather to keep quiet and agree with whatever message the professor is preaching,' said Mr. Hamm, graduate student at CU Boulder, who spoke at a Dec. 18 state legislative hearing here. 'This is not education, but indoctrination.'"

Bump, again.

"We're having massive budget cuts at every university, and yet John Andrews is on this witch hunt," Mr. Huttner said. "Higher-education presidents are really starting to resent it. The more time he spends on this and the less time on budget cuts, the more he's going to get hammered for not focusing on more important issues."

Allow me to translate:

"massive budget cuts" = didn't give us a blank check
"witch hunt" = a public information program advising against bias
"Higher-education presidents are really starting to resent it." = You can't touch us.
"The more time he spends on this and the less time on budget cuts, the more he's going to get hammered for not focusing on more important issues." = Screw you; we've got tenure.

Republicans play fair while the socialists wage war against America, brainwashing our kids and playing gatekeeper against anyone who fails to pay lip service to their lies. I'm sick of this wimpy crap; it's time to kick some academic butt. Privatize the universities.

Bump.

Once upon a time, I actually sat down and read up on the real U.S. budget.

One fourth goes to the "federally funded state university system." You don't see it in "the pie" because the hidden amounts are all in miscellaneous Dept. of Treasury expenditures.

The Beltway Association, if you will, cannot fathom the limited source of funds, and so they spend like all they have to do is turn some spigot to get more.

It will not happen this time.

The economy is not going to improve at all, until production returns to the U.S.A., and with it, we are able to produce our way out fo the hole.

The U.S. Dollar will continue its descent.

Gold will continue to be regarded, not as an investment, but as a lifering --- which Wall St. has yet to figure out.

The public has little or no savings and is frankly, broke.

Banks do not have any leverage from depositors' funds.

The major purchases are now by government, not by corporations.

The Bush Grapes of Wrath Society will not have the luxury of self-determination with which to build and produce, because the Beltway Association has strangled, nearly outlawed, productive entrepreneurship and free enterprise. Property and the meaning of property as a fundamental building block for our rule of law, has been tossed with the ease that Rudi Giulianni today discarded all the importance of due process as he dismissed how hurtful it is for Americans to be forced by the federal government ot submit to unlawful entry upon their property --- THAT WHICH GEORGE W. BUSH WOULD NOT TOLERATE ON

HIS

PROPERTY.

So the multi-millionaire - and -can -afford - many - lawyers limousine politicos and their knee-brethren of "corporate America" are all that remain of "the people" with property rights and at least some power to kick YOU off their land.

While squatters are given entitlement to YOUR LAND.

Bush is a hypocrite, along with the professionals of the Beltway --- Wasteful people. Careless people. Thoughtless people. Mindless people.
