Gee Whiz was Antifeminist Steve Horner superpissed when he heard about Ladies' Night. You know, the night at the bar when men pay and ladies don't. So he fought back. The Daily Show has the goods...

Just as an aside, Sarah Vowell can now add Steve Horner to her list of rock stars, dairy farmers and right wing activists who've compared themselves to Rosa Parks...

***

The second video is Colbert's word on the Republican effort to stop the debate on Iraq....

Digg!

Lynne Cheney-Joe Lieberman Group Puts Out a Blacklist
by Roberto J. Gonzalez

AN aggressive attack on freedom has been launched upon America's college campuses. Its perpetrators seek the elimination of ideas and activities that place Sept. 11 in historical context, or critique the so-called war on terrorism.
The offensive, spearheaded by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, a Washington-based group, threatens free speech, democratic debate and the integrity of higher education. In an incendiary report, ``Defending Civilization: How Our Universities Are Failing America,'' the American Council claims that ``colleges and university faculty have been the weak link in America's response'' to Sept. 11. It also asserts that ``when a nation's intellectuals are unwilling to defend its civilization, they give comfort to its adversaries.''


The American Council of Trustees and Alumni was founded in 1995 by Lynne Cheney, the vice president's wife, and Sen. Joseph Lieberman. Its Website claims that it contributed $3.4 billion to colleges and universities last year, making it ``the largest private source of support for higher education.'' Cheney is cited several times in the report...

Many of those blacklisted are top scholars in their fields, and it appears that the report represents a kind of academic terrorism designed to strike fear into other academics by making examples of respected professors...

Hey, as Colbert just pointed out, Freedom requires sacrifices, the latest one being the voice of the American people. Which of course, includes those college and university professors that they´re gettin´all that book-learnin´from. -- Who needs those intellectuals when you´ve got Pat Robertson to guide you to the Promised Land?

Check this NYT article out from year 2000!
goacta.org/press/articles/NYT/NYT8-24-00.htm Lieberman as Vice President candidate??!! Horrors, had he not shown his true colors and those of the DNC and Ms. Hillary. Not to forget how close Hillary Clinton is to Joe Lieberman, to this day! Perhaps we should not think that Republicans hate Hillary as much as is made out.
