There's reason for hope among college students. The campus Left is divided and in their own fantasy land, while the conservative groups are definitely "cooler" and on message.

Maybe it is their rabid emotional hysteria with NO intellectually rational platform of ideas other then being anti-everything, which defines the Modern Left, might explain the lunatics dismal failure to be even marginally politically relevent?

Liberals don't get anything done for the same reason they are liberals: they are stupid and lazy.

The left says that America has not been this divided since the vietnam war.

The same agitators who were at work calling for (communist) revolution in America back in the 1960s and 1970s are the SAME agitators calling for (communist) revolution in America this time.

When you realize that, you realize the left has no power. Just a strong set of lungs and good location.

Abbie Hoffman offed himself before these days came back. Then again Hunter S. Thompson survived this long and offed himself anyway.

John Kerry's lucky that the masses never saw him for the traitor that he was.

maybe next to "Nation" the campuses are conservative bastions. But next to reality, they are cesspools of hardcore leftwing radicals.

The right actually ends up looking cooler than the left," agrees Mani Mostofi, who recently earned his master's degree at the University of Texas. "I don't know how this is possible, but it's true!"

Maybe because on hateful leftist campuses, they are iconoclasts?

University Admin often forgets that in this day and age, they are "The man" students groups want to fight against. This makes lefty student groups the conformist pigs they hate so much.

I feel sorry for these young, idealist kids. It's obvious that reliving the 60's on campus isn't authentic. They need something to galvanize and bond themselves together as a generation. May I suggest the liberation of Tibet? Kind of like skipping the 60's generation and go back to more primitive roots of leftism in the Lincoln Brigads of Spain. They could take on and defeat PRC mechanized divisions with their air support. After liberation of Tibet, then they will bond as brothers and sisters.

Just trying to be helpful. Honest.

But in reality, since the 1970s the conservative movement has become the dominant political force on many American campuses.

Earth to author Graham-Felsen: You can probably count the number of campuses where "the conservative movement has become the dominant political force" on your fingers. Like so many leftist journalists, your concept of reality and history is warped so as to better promote your perverse agenda and those that welcome it.

As a college student who is currently surfing FR at UC before class starts I can tell you that liberalism is alive and well at this and many other colleges.

It's the same thing in every class, "Bush is evil. Bush is spying on me, Bush (fill in the blank)." And this mantra is not limmited to the humanities classes.

Thank God I graduate in June...and no, I'm not getting my Master's.

Well....I would not be hanging out with conservatives if they weren't the coolest ones around! ; )

students have long been "sick of what the left is doing--they want to walk to class without being handed a flier about a rally or vigil."

Well, they got that part right. But the rest?...

But in reality, since the 1970s the conservative movement has become the dominant political force on many American campuses....

This is the same kind of tripe I heard form "journalists" during
the recent Supreme Court hearings.
Many of these reporters talked about how Renhquist (sp?) had
assembled a cadre of conservatives and taken over the court.
Truth be known, he was only able to slightly correct the course of
the court and stop it from sliding even further left.
(a near super-human feat in my view).

Now, from some of the lefty crap I hear about the universities,
you'd think every tenured faculty member was a right-wing,
gun-toting libertarian.
Absolutely 180 degrees from the truth!
