It depends on the modifier. Communist and a hard-left “education” are bad (such as the reeducation one would receive at an Ivy League school, a UC school, etc). It can be useful if you plan to use their education against them, as do so many conservatives, creationists, and IDers. But even then, that option takes a back seat to a truly good education, such as are taught at our top Conservative and Christian private schools. This is precisely why the more education you get from our leftist universities, the more like you are to vote for Obama, or believe darwood’s evo-religious creation myth.

“This is precisely why the more education you get from our leftist universities, the more like you are to vote for Obama, or believe darwood’s evo-religious creation myth.”

It could also be that at Christian private schools, the education you get in sciences - especially if they teach literal Genesis as science - is simply inadequate and the students are not equipped to understand, much less agree with complex scientific theories.

I don’t think you’d find a correlation between “real” academic majors that require rigor and hard work and your Obama voters. I think that sort of ignorance is part of non-rigorous colleges and fields of study. I think that it is very difficult to obtain a rigorous science education at a Christian-based school if they stick to literal Biblical concepts, so in that way the average Christian school college graduate is more inline with the average college-educated Obama voter.

of course, my statements are just as unproven as yours.

It must hurt you deep inside to recognize that fully 62% of all the people occupying Cabinet positions in Reagan’s administrations were educated in the Ivy League. You can look it up. I did.

A handful from Stanford, Boston College, Notre Dame and Penn State, and than puts the percentage of Reagan’s cabinet educated at your communist and hard left schools at over 70%.

Shocking, eh, that people so educated could have done what they did, given your comments about those schools.
