I'll teach my kids to shout that a girl in hijab.

Heather MacDonald at City Journal wrote about UCSD's diversity apparatus: the Chancellor’s Diversity Office, the associate vice chancellor for faculty equity, the assistant vice chancellor for diversity, the faculty equity advisors, the staff diversity liaison, the undergraduate student diversity liaison, the chief diversity officer, the director of development for diversity initiatives, the Office of Academic Diversity and Equal Opportunity, the Committee on Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation Issues, the Committee on the Status of Women, the Campus Council on Climate, Culture and Inclusion, the Diversity Council, and the directors of the Cross-Cultural Center, the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Resource Cent

They're not going to opt-out when they suddenly need to visit an emergency room. The fact is, everyone in America IS guaranteed emergency care. So everyone has to pay some part of it.

The two-year graduation rate is a highly questionable measure of success. I graduated from CC in 7 semesters, because I was also working. (It took 6 more semesters to finish my four-year. The upside is I graduated with no debt.) By brother attended CC for 4 semesters without graduating, but transfered all his credits to a four-year.

You know how we keep hearing that various ages are the "new" two-thirds of what they used to be? I think 25 is the "new" 18. And represents the age to which education should be considered priority one. I'd like to see a (voluntary) program created that would be a kind of combination military-without-the-guns, community college and Civilian Conservation Corps, where poor young adults complete...

President Obama is such a hero in the Af-Am community that the number of black kids who will listen to their friends say they're "acting white" could drop by half.

Medved's suggestion that Michelle should deliver the address as part of the traditional role of first ladies is correct as far it goes. But Af-Am girls don't need the message nearly as much as boys. The President's video is the male role model they don't have.

"Did the Jews force Hitler to kill them?"

He "wants" the whole world to practice his brand of political Islam.

So Hitler didn't really want war, he just wanted all of Europe except the Jews. He attacked every neighbor (except Switzerland) that didn't ally with him, and the Soviets who did.

I'm not a conservative (more like part of the radical center) but I read this site to get the news the MSM leaves out. This article by Buchanan is more worthy of Stormfront, where they argue that we should have helped Hitler fight the Soviets, and deny the Holocaust happened.

This article totally avoids what the banks' motive for arbitration is -- THEY select the pool from which the arbitrator can be chosen and de-list the ones who rule for consumers too often.

The business about class actions is particularly important. The fine print of standard credit card agreements today (those eight-page documents people don't read) include clauses in which the consumer agrees a) not to be included in any classes; and b) to keep confidential any settlements with the company. The off-shoot is that a large bank can bogusly charge everyone a $5 junk fee; the people who actually complain get credited back (but can't tell anyone about it); and the people who don't notice pay the $5. This is precisely why we need...

Author left out that at a town hall in Maryland (NOT with President Obama) someone carried a placard:

"Death to Obama
Death to Michelle
and their two stupid kids."

There is basis for calling some demonstrators "crazies."

Conservatives were all for term limits in the 70s and 80s when the Democrats controlled Congress, then for some reason the issue went to sleep for a decade, and (Surprise!) now it's time to think about them again.

Term limits are not going to solve the current problem, which is that it's almost impossible to repeal a major spending program once it's developed a constituency.
