Monckton’s Schenectady showdown, h/t reader John: As they filed in, Lord Monckton was chatting contentedly to a quaveringly bossy woman with messy blonde hair who was head of the college environmental faction. Her group had set up a table at the door of the auditorium, covered...
Earlier this week I had the pleasure of sitting in on a lecture given by Dr. Richard Baer, professor emeritus of environmental ethics and education, at an event hosted by the Cornell Republicans. Baer spoke at length about how, in their rush to ensure that they're not promoting religious...
From University of Rochester (NY) Professor Stephen E. Landsburg, a blisteringly refreshing view of Sandra Fluke, Rush to Judgment (via Althouse h/t Instapundit): But while Ms. Fluke herself deserves the same basic respect we owe to any human being, her position — which is what’s at issue here...
There's something Bill Maher understands. What goes around comes around. Media Matters and Think Progress can organize a campaign to attack Rush Limbaugh's advertisers as a means -- they hope -- of forcing him off the air. But what goes around comes around. And it will. So Maher has...
On Saturday, March 3, 2012, Carbonite announced that it was dropping its advertising on the Rush Limbaugh Show even after Limbaugh had apologized to Sandra Fluke for certain comments made regarding Ms. Fluke. When the controversy originally broke, Carbonite took a principled stand that its advertising was...
Commenter CWLsun put together a list of links in the Tip Line regarding the explicit plan of various law school branches of Students for Reproductive Freedom to establish secular contraceptive policies at Catholic educational institutions. I don't have a problem with that when it is done without using the force...
The Hollywood movie industry is not racist just because there are few blacks or other racial minorities in leading roles, on the set, or in the executive suite. Hollywood is not sexist even though the culture of the casting couch still lives, and young women are expected to perform...
Rush started off by joking that his phone line was so busy he couldn't cancel advertising on his own show for Two If By Tea, the product he produces and markets. He then addressed his apology, and his motives. I'll post more, but here is a partial...
Tolerance. The concept could be a bumper sticker. But if so, it would not be welcome on the campus of Northeastern University, which just banned Chick-fil-A from campus. From The Boston Glove via TaxProf (h/t Instapundit): Northeastern University said yesterday that a Chick-fil-A fast-food restaurant will not be...
Two hundred fifty Georgetown University Law Center (the name of the law school) faculty, staff and students signed the following statement: The undersigned faculty members, administrators and students of Georgetown University Law Center and other law schools strongly condemn the recent personal attacks on our student, Sandra...
JWF has some background on the Georgetown Law student who is challenging Georgetown's contraception policy. She went to the law school knowing the university's policy, and per JWF, intending to challenge it. Unfortunately, Rush walked into this one without seeing the set up, and now the...
Can lesbians be charged with a hate crime for beating up a gay man? Why not? Once we make motive an element of a crime, it goes both ways, and all ways. So a Jew can be guilty of an anti-Jewish hate crime, a black of an anti-black hate...
I am really liking The Times of Israel, the new online publication I posted about a week ago. This story is one of the reasons, Onward Christian Soldiers: Think North American campus activism for Israel and chances are you won’t think of a Hispanic Catholic organizing pro-Israel...
"Chink in the armor" is a non-racial idiom, not a single word, denoting: A vulnerable area, as in Putting things off to the last minute is the chink in Pat's armor and is bound to get her in trouble one day . This term relies on chink ...
I don't necessarily agree with everything Pat Buchanan says or writes, but his purge from MSNBC is a sign of the times, and his characterization is correct: The modus operandi of these thought police at Color of Change and ADL is to brand as racists and...
I propose that the House and Senate pass, and the President sign into law with the simultaneous appointment of a Museum Czar, The Museum Fairness Act of 2012, to address the concerns of a severely museum-deprived minority. This is America. Everyone deserves a fair shot at getting...
I have posted numerous times before about the case of Lawrence Connell, the Widener Law School Professor who was placed on one-year unpaid leave and forced to undergo a psychiatric examination as a condition of return. The sanctions imposed by Dean Linda Ammons were so controversial...
