And we wonder why no one bats an eye when the IRS targets groups opposing the ruling class and the FCC wants to regulate the news.

I don't think we should be tolerating [George's] conservative views because that dominant culture embeds these deep inequalities in our society."

She's too blind to realize that racist totalitarian leftism is now the dominant culture that embeds deep inequalities and state slavery in our society.

In what modern sense is America a politically conservative society?

I remember back when students were a little suspicious of government,,, these new ones are little tools. Reminds me of Hitler youth, or 9 year old Khmer Rouge.

The hatred of liberals against this country based on being taught history by other liberals will ensure no future success for this country.

What is right of center becomes far right of center as the center moves further to the left.... “As the World Turns... or as The Pendulums Swings.”

George Bush Sr was slightly right of center. Clinton was more to the left of center, W Bush was more to the right of center, and Obummer is far left of center. If the pendulum swing pattern continues, the next leader will be far, far right..... Be careful as either extreme can be dangerous as extremes seem to always justify the means by their ends or goals....

Before everyone jumps on me as a lib, allow me to say that Ted Cruz is pretty close to my center... Fiscal responsibility is necessary as the path without it leads to anarchy.

Of course we must always remember that when the ship begins to sink, everyone suddenly finds religion and the need to learn to swim!

Are our time horizons now so short that 2005 information is “dated”? The disease of liberalism, for which too many credit the fight against slavery/civil rights to, won’t be cured outside of two generations.

It was conservative Christians that fought against slavery and for civil rights.

It is getting harder and harder not to cry when contemplating the future of our country.

%%%%%%

This message is embedded in every assignment and lesson that children are given from kindergarten to university. How can they not ‘believe’ that it is fact.

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. RR.

Our generation may be the last one.

Somewhere along the way colleges abandoned the concept of freedom of speech in favor of political correctness. On college campuses the American ideal of “I may disagree with what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it” (Voltaire), is now “if you say something I disagree with I hate you and want to destroy you”. College has become an incubator of political intolerance and anti-Americanism.

"What really bothered me is, the whole idea is that at a liberal arts college, we need to be hearing a diversity of opinion," "I don't think we should be tolerating [George's] conservative views because that dominant culture embeds these deep inequalities in our society."
