I've known first-hand the fury and indignation of the parents of the Duke LaCrosse players. And when one has been through the fire more than one or two times, one sees that which isn't clear, perhaps, to others:

Political Correctness raises a "bar" by which to empower with funds the leftwing Lawyers Operations. The Democrats, most often, the recipients of "donations" from the various leftwing based "enterprises" are then used as stats in the articles and presses regarding "creating a good economy" by the Democrats.

Years ago, some illegals in Florida got caught in a crime. These illegals got off (using leftwing lawyers, ACLU-matrixed) and won their case against the State of Florida. The illegals sued the Florida taxpayers for $400K per illegal, and won. Said illegals then turned right around and "donated" most of that money to left-wing race-based groups who then used said money to hire more of their own kind and do press releases and help design pub ed curriculum and medical insurance/coverage laws, ad nauseum.

It's right out of their 60s singsong: Up against the Wall, RedNecked Mother..." A natural result: Create a chimera, raid and redistribute the coffers.

But never call *that*: holding down and raping.

Leading under fire
Amid a crumbling legal case, has Duke's embattled president walked the right path?

Other than Durham District Attorney Mike Nifong and the three men he charged with rape, sexual offense and kidnapping, no one has come under more intense scrutiny in the lacrosse scandal than President Richard Brodhead.

A series of public statements and the resignation of English Professor Karla Holloway this month from her post on the Campus Culture Initiative have once again brought Brodhead's actions to the fore-actions he said have been guided from the start by one simple idea.

"If you want to know what my strategy has been for dealing with this, it's been to try to do what was right, try to figure out what principles were involved-the principle of respect for evidence, the principle of taking seriously the community issues, the principle of presumption of innocence and due process-and fashion a response that tries to honor those principles," Brodhead said in an interview Friday.
