Internet Access Is Not a Human Right (NYT)
“There is a high bar for something to be considered a human right. Loosely put, it must be among the things we as humans need in order to lead healthy, meaningful lives, like freedom from torture or freedom of conscience. It is a mistake to place any particular technology in this exalted category, since over [...]
Occupy are not the solution: they embody the problem – Telegraph Blogs
Occupy are not the solution: they embody the problem – Telegraph Blogs. Delingpole echoes my previous comments and adds some helpful videos. The occupy movement is a marxist communist horde of miseducated brats who have no idea of how the world actually works. The essential flaw in any communist is always that they ignore the [...]

Wall St. occupied by Marxist scum
Details at Left-Wing Institute For Civil Discourse. The way the mainstream media have or have not been reporting on the mess at surrounding Wall Street, you’d think that you may indeed be watching the seeds of a genuine threat to the world banker cabal. And you’d be totally wrong. What is taking place in NYC is [...]
Sun Causes Climate Change Shock – Telegraph Blogs
Sun Causes Climate Change Shock – Telegraph Blogs. Once again we see that unlike what most would have us believe, man made global warming is still an unproven theory.
No friendly skies between U.S., EU – Washington Times
No friendly skies between U.S., EU – Washington Times. Kind of ironic that Democrats would be opposed to that tax. Shouldn’t they who want to tax everything and everyone for no reason welcome such a scheme? Never mind that the whole carbon trading idea is a scam anyway, this scheme does indeed reek of a [...]
Cameron recalls Parliament as London riots spread (C4N)
“This is not about race, faith and class pure and simple,” said Professor Mike Hardy via Cameron recalls Parliament as London riots spread – Channel 4 News. Faith, maybe, but beyond that I’m not so sure. I very much doubt there were any rich business men among the rabble. This is a failure of no [...]

Pope Benedict Speech At Palace Of Holyrood House Sparks Row Over Atheist And Nazi Comments | UK News | Sky News.

Convicted Disease Doc Questioned in MIA Scare (NBC Miami)

Impeach Obama and expel (almost) all Democrats
Although many true words have been spoken about yesterday’s travesty of an unconstitutional act by Obama and his cronies, I feel I should add to this and post some links too. The question that should be asked is who twisted whose arms in this tragedy. When a strong majority of Americans, all GOP representatives, a [...]
Student sues after marriage speech (Washington Times)
Washington Times – Student sues after marriage speech Yet another case proving that academic freedom is as good as dead. There is something terribly wrong when innocent people a persecuted for stating facts.
Thomas Sowell : De-Programming Students (Townhall)
Thomas Sowell : De-Programming Students – Townhall.com I’ve got an even better idea: Don’t send your children to schools that teach such nonsense! Sure, it may be more expensive, but it sure is a lot easier than trying to deprogram them once the damage has been done.

A Tribute to Alexander Solzhenitsyn (Newsmax.com)
Newsmax.com – A Tribute to Alexander Solzhenitsyn A man to be remembered… We are indebted to him for letting us know about atrocities far worse than those Hitler ever ordered. If anything should be remembered about the wars of the 20th century, it’s the evil and inhuman actions of the Soviet Union.

Dumbing Down America’s Colleges by Alan Caruba

Saudis give big to U.S. colleges (The Washington Times)
Saudis give big to U.S. colleges – – The Washington Times, America’s Newspaper If I were in charge at those universities I’d tell the Saudis to take a hike. If they want to help our educational institutions they should fund Latin and hard sciences programs, not institutes that will hasten our destruction. Of course, we [...]
Cho Seung-Hui’s Plays (News Bloggers)
Cho Seung-Hui’s Plays – News Bloggers The VT shooter may have had undetected psychiatric problems, but this sort of thing will probably lead to further penalization of creativity and unique artistic expression. Thanks to that Korean nutcase, professors now have even more incentive to go after non-liberal students.

Adams v. UNCW – By Mike S. Adams
Townhall.com::Adams v. UNCW::By Mike S. Adams Reading that column made me think that I could probably sue my university or the State of New York on the same grounds. Sure, for me it may have been about being discriminated against as a student assistant and degree candidate, but Adams’ narrative sounds all too familiar.

College conservative settles over firing
College conservative settles over firing – Nation/Politics – insider.washingtontimes.com I’d love to get my hands on a settlement like that… I should get a lot of tuition money back (and then some more on top) for all the time wasting I’ve had to do here.

Global Hot Air: Part III – By Thomas Sowell
Townhall.com::Global Hot Air: Part III::By Thomas Sowell “Often [the media] seize upon every heat wave to hype global warming, but see no implications in record-setting cold weather, such as many places have been experiencing lately.” I was indeed going to ask how on earth constant -10 F windchill is supposed to be warmer than normal.
