alive angeles billion book careers clearly dedicated destroyed economy encounter endure famous forced four given king laid liberal liberals los night obeyed officers orders people rodney trials
If Rodney King had obeyed the orders clearly given and had laid down in a "prone position" on the night of his famous encounter with Los Angeles police, 58 people would be alive today, $16 billion would be circulating in the economy and four dedicated LAPD officers who were working to the book that night would not have been forced to endure two trials (the first had acquitted them) and had their careers destroyed to appease the liberal conscience. But liberals had to make their point.
air attack bush clinton critique current destroyed foreign liberal medicine missile opposition principle strike sudan third unprovoked violated
The 1998 missile strike on the Sudan was an unannounced, unprovoked attack that destroyed that Third World nation's only medicine factory. Yet it provoked no opposition outcry on the left. The Clinton air strike violated every principle of the current liberal critique of Bush foreign policy.
advocating bill discuss issues stop teachers
The bill would stop teachers from advocating controversial issues in classrooms, but they would still be able to discuss issues.
advocacy agendas bring form political preaching problem professors
I have no problem with professors being left-wing. The problem is if they bring political agendas to the classroom. Advocacy is a form of preaching -- not teaching.

Not all of the professors depicted in this volume hold views as extreme as Ward Churchill's, but a disturbing number do.
death exploits four hard respect somebody son specific tour woman
It's very hard to have respect for a woman who exploits the death of her own son and doesn't respect her own son's life. This young man volunteered twice. This is not a draftee. This is somebody who volunteered, did a tour of four years and volunteered back for Iraq, and volunteered for the specific mission.

Professors are not supposed to be dealing in opinions.

If we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday at a time of presidential inaugurals, this is thanks to Ronald Reagan who created the holiday, and not to the Democratic Congress of the Carter years, which rejected it.
confronted england lives million pacifist powerful remember united west western
There was England. And then there was the United States. If the pacifist betrayers of the West had not been so powerful in the 1930s and Western governments had confronted Hitler early, 70 million lives would have been saved. Americans would do well to remember this now.
heart reality light
[E]ncouraging the Muslim world, and particularly the Arab Muslim world, which is the heart of the global terrorist threat - to adopt democratic ways and to shine the light of liberty into its culture of medieval darkness is a pragmatic necessity for the future security of the civilized world. That is the reality behind the President's address. Only people in serious denial can be blind to this fact. Only liberals.
men israel racism
For many Washington liberals, terrorism was not the instrument of political fanatics and evil men, but was the product of social conditions - poverty, racism and oppression - for which the Western democracies, including Israel were always ultimately to blame.
names people mouths
You could mention my name in any hallway in any academic institution and you would have people foaming at the mouth.
views rights political
I have also been attacked by my opponents as someone seeking to purge university faculties of leftist professors. This is false. The first provision of the Academic Bill of Rights is that no professor should be hired or fired because of his or her political views. I have never myself called for the firing of any professor for his or her political views, nor would I.
