NINE of the ten campuses of the University of California—led by Berkeley—once again made it into an annual ranking of the world’s leading universities, published last month by Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China. All’s well in Californian higher education, it might seem.But that is not what Pat Brown or Clark Kerr would say, were they alive today.

Now Charlie Rangel is proposing that [...]

From Right Wing News: Let’s hope liberals enjoyed the warm glow of self-righteousness they got from voting for the unqualified left-wing black guy with the name like a terrorist, because the price tag is astronomical and still rising: New numbers posted [Monday] on the Treasury Department website show the National Debt has increased by more than [...]

From PrisonPlanet.com: President Obama will be handed the power to shut down the Internet for at least four months without Congressional oversight if the Senate votes for the infamous Internet ‘kill switch’ bill, which was approved by a key Senate committee yesterday and now moves to the floor.

From NannyStateLiberationFront.net: White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is fond of saying, “You don’t ever want a crisis to go to waste; it’s an opportunity to do important things that you would otherwise avoid.” Well, the Obama Administration certainly has not let the British Petroleum (BP) Deepwater Horizon oil rig crisis go to waste, using it as [...]
