Bruised Left Shoulder
I can’t imagine how large a person’s inferiority complex has to be for them to get to this point. A psychiatrist would have a field day rooting around in this guy's childhood.
It is now becoming “hip” to be a Republican on college campuses. Why? Because they’re in the minority, of course—the same reason it was “hip” to be a liberal Democrat on college campuses in the early sixties. Unfortunately, most major university campuses and faculties have gone all the way to the left--so far left, in fact, that they embrace KGB-trained thugs like Che Guevara and Yasser Arafat as "statesmen." This so-called professor's views are nothing more than thinly-veiled communism, a political and economic philosophy which was proven wildly implausible (through empricial experimentation) during the last century. Yet still he fails to learn the lesson.
The pendulum can’t hang on the left forever. People like this Mr. Jensen are going to be blinking and staring at the bright lights, wondering what happened, as colleges--and the education system in general--swing hard back to the right over the next twenty years. The real irony, of course, is that the Left caused it, just as the Right will cause the next hard swing back to the left. Make no mistake: hard right is no better than hard left, but at least we'll have a few years of intelligent moderation in the middle. Moderation, tolerance and intelligent analysis, after all, are what colleges are supposed to teach, not radical partisan doctrine and wacky political extremism.
Hat tip to Jimmy V. for pointing this one out.

As is the case with most people of this point of view, he states his opinion as fact and then draws conclusions off of it. We havn't lost anything in Iraq. At it's peak we only recieved 2 percent of our imports from Iraq. That's not 2 percent of our oil but of our imports. The Bush administration could give a rats ass about Iraq's oil. Truth is, everything Bush has said about Iraq is pretty much true. If we had done nothing now we would have had to later. That may be my opinion but I believe it more true than anything this guy said. And we have found direct ties to terrorist groups. Specifically in Palistine. But he of course fails to mention this. Assuming he even is aware of it.
Put simply, the Bush administration is trying to stabalize the region over there to protect America and our interests. I don't appologize for that in the slitest. Of course, once again we're the big bad corporate state pushing our greed to the limit. pshaw... I'll say it once again, the only export from Iraq of significance is violent fanatics. So our intrusion is at worst only a good thing as apposed to a great thing.
Anyway, that's my 2 cents worth.
