Yep, the left claim they hate lynch mobs and McCarthyism, but it is the left who has the lynch mobs and the ones who employ McCarthyism methods today.

That’s pretty good.

I thought Prager’s summation yesterday was pretty spot-on.

Wow! I'm assuming this writer is a student. He is a not only a damn good writer, but he is exactly on the spot here. He doesn't mince any words and he calls it exactly right.

Inside our borders, the nation of E Pluribus Unum threatens to be fractured across ethnic lines by racial animus and divisive multiculturalism.

Divide and conquer has been a tactic employed by the radical left since the days of Stalin and the left have been relentless in picking at any scab on our nations body with the hope of promoting hatred. They don't want harmony. They want weakness through hatred.

This guy understands that fact. IMHO, he has a great future in journalism.

This story hasn't stoppped being interesting; it's just about to get STARTED being interesting:

"...just got good news on this front from a lacrosse contact. first, be aware that this is 4th hand - its from Pressler to a head coach who's a good friend of his, to someone in the lax industry, to me.

the suits are going to start after memorial day, as no one wants to make it a distraction to the team while the season is still on. which also explains the june publish date of pressler's book. pressler himself will drop the first bomb, with a massive suit against duke (and others). most (if not all, but i have no idea) of the team will also be filing suits against various parties. i can only imagine what discovery from pressler's suit will turn up for the 2nd wave.

and the best part - despite being low key with phrases like "we haven't ruled out suits", etc since the charges were dropped, the families of the indicted three are going scorched earth. one of the fathers said (i'm paraphrasing) he doesn't care how much he has to spend in order to hold anyone and everyone accountable for their role in the hoax. anyone even tangentially involved in framing or slandering the three has a world of hurt coming.

the irony is too much for me to handle -- all of those abettors who wailed that this has to go to trial, with no concern at all for the costs (both in stress, disruption, and money) of defending yourself now get to see the other side of that coin. as long as the families' suits have any merit whatsoever it would be worth it just to put their sons' tormentors thru hell themselves. i can't imagine their firms aren't working on contingency, and those firms are going to get paid in a big way no matter what."

Thanks, Miller, for all your good insights and keeping the fire to the feet of the miscreants in Duke Administration and faculty.
