Historically, professors have defended tenure as a way to protect their individualistic thought. But tenure can also be used as a club to wield against the powerless.
approving basically ensure greater guarantee leftist professors remain system work
There is no greater way to ensure that universities remain a hotbed of leftist thought than to guarantee that professors knight their own successors. But that's basically how the Ph.D. system works, with sitting professors approving the work of would-be professors.
among body create feeling freedom giving intimidate jobs less life likely power professors respond serving student
By giving professors jobs for life, universities create a feeling of unanswerable power among too many. Tenured professors who are uninterested in serving the student body are less likely to respond favorably to criticism, and are more likely to feel the freedom to intimidate or harass those with opposing viewpoints.
lines disappointing bottom
The bottom line is this: Miers is a disappointing pick.
running depressing hurt
Every so often, we all gaze into the abyss. It's a depressing fact of life that eventually the clock expires; eventually the sand in the hourglass runs out. It's the leaving behind of everything that matters to us that hurts the most.

In short, I don't root against President Obama because I hate America. I root against President Obama because I hate his vision for America.
jobs simple government
The story of Detroit's bankruptcy was simple enough: Allow capitalism to grow the city, campaign against income inequality, tax the job creators until they flee, increase government spending in order to boost employment, promise generous pension plans to keep people voting for failure. Rinse, wash and repeat.
moral socialism capitalism-and-socialism
Voluntary exchange is more moral than forced redistribution.
country generations empty
Never before in our country's history has a generation been so empowered, so wealthy, so privileged - and yet so empty.
government long income
Socialism violates at least three of the Ten Commandments: It turns government into God, it legalizes thievery and it elevates covetousness. Discussions of income inequality, after all, aren't about prosperity but about petty spite. Why should you care how much money I make, so long as you are happy?
