Ivory Tower Idiocy
In the last dispatch, the author mentions the leftist ethos permeating most campuses. David Horowitz has documented and battled the abuse and intimidation by faculty, administration, and school-sanctioned organizations. Speakers including Ann Coulter, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Horowitz himself have been physically assaulted when attempting to speak at universities. Genocide promoter Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (who this columnist affectionately calls Mad Man in love with Jihad or Lunatic besmirched by God) was welcomed with open arms and standing ovations at Columbia University. Ward Connerly who bravely fought to end racial preference set-asides (affirmative action) is a campus pariah while euthanasia (read murder advocate) Peter Singer is a hero to the radicals running education. The problem is not merely a handful of luminaries not being allowed to speak or bloody-handed psychopaths being given a forum, but a systematic slant to the left of elementary, secondary, and university education. Every third grader is well-versed in global-warming green-speak in the public schools. High school students are taught blame America as history. Every black studies major knows of massacres in Oklahoma and Florida but has no idea that as many whites were enslaved by North African pirates as ever were brought to the North American continent as the surpassingly brilliant Thomas Sowell has so aptly chronicled. If Obama wins, the indoctrination will only get worse.
