Liberty not allowed at University of Minnesota
The University of Minnesota is a public research university and has the fourth largest student body numbers in America. This looks like a perfect place for liberal indoctrination, right?
The Race, Culture, Class and Gender Task Group of the U’s College of Education and Human Development has recommended that race, class and gender politics become the “over-arching framework” of all teacher education courses. Under the
group’s proposed plan, future teachers would be required to pass an ideological litmus test — denouncing “white privilege,” “hegemonic masculinity” and “heteronormativity,” and proving their determination to “fight” for “social justice.”
In connection with this initiative, the College of Education intends to redesign its admissions process. It plans to use “predictive criteria” to weed out applicants whose beliefs are judged to render them incapable of developing acceptable levels of “cultural competence.” A university document calls for warning this year’s applicants about the possible changes…..
The debacle at the U of M illustrates the gulf that separates higher-education officials and ordinary citizens on the subject of freedom of speech and thought. University leaders seem clueless about these rights’ crucial importance, while average folks grasp intuitively that thought control is wrong…..
Fidel Castro should run the U.S.
Strange title, I know. However, I’m beginning to think that is what some Democrats are trying to have here. Rep. Diane Watson from California is Castro’s #1 fan.
Michelle Malkin was kind enough to transcribe one of Watson’s latest speeches(See end of article for audio of this speech):
You might have heard their philosophical leader. I think his name is Rush Limbaugh. And he said early on, “I hope that he fails.”
Do you know what that means? If the president, your commander-in-
chief, fails, America fails.
This is what bothers me. The Democrats screamed and screamed that they wanted Bush to fail, and his failure would be America’s win. Now that the situation is reversed if the President fails then America fails. Hello? What part of this is so confusing? Obama’s policies are not something we agree with, so why would we want him to succeed? You see, in our opinion, his success means the fall of American freedom. Freedom is at the heart of America. We lose freedom, we lose America.
Now, when a senator says that this will be his Waterloo, and we all know what happened at Waterloo, then we have him and he fails. Do we want a failed state called the United States?
Choice – an interesting concept
I originally posted this August 25, 2007. With the recent articles MK has been posting I found it fitting to repost this one.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The leftist side believes in Choice. Just as long as that Choice doesn’t contradict the leftist side. Understand?
I think my favorite leftist example of this is the concept of charity. They want everyone to give until it hurts. What if you want to give to a Crisis Pregnancy Center? Well, then you shouldn’t give. The charity must be okayed by the liberals, so you will be correct in your choice.
The liberals seem to be pushing for a socialistic government. They want property and wealth to be controlled by the government. You can’t tax the rich enough and you can’t give the poor enough. But there are serious problems with this. The rich get angry that they are doing all the work while the poor become addicted to the handouts.
An example would be how the Catholic Church loves the socialistic ideals, but then get confused when these governments begin to turn against their teachings. When it is the government that is controlling the concept of right and wrong we become subject to someone else’s opinion of morality and the Church is left behind. The people become the children to the parental government. Our lives are now controlled by someone else who makes all the decisions for us.
