Required Leftist Reading...The Next Four Years?

Academic indoctrination by leftist professors is rampant in American college and university classrooms. This section of Discover The Networks shows examples of this indoctrination in action. The curricula and courses listed on this page do not represent comprehensive listings, either for the universities in question or for universities generally. They are intended only to illustrate the problem of academic indoctrination, where institutions of higher education fail to fulfill what UC Berkeley president Robert Gordon Sproul identified as "the function of the university" in 1934, or fail to protect the "academic freedom" that Professor Stanley Fish described in 2006.

Lib Chick Gone Wild...Again

As is so often the case, I honestly have no idea what Sheila Jackson Lee is talking about here. Something to do with Christmas tree lights popping, then the trees burning down in people’s houses, as a result of GOP opposition to the payroll tax cut extension.

As she sees it, the GOP is literally “putting the American people in darkness.”
Apparently the only thing separating working Americans from this cruel fate is an extra $20 per paycheck, at the expense of funding Social Security and Medicare...See the incoherent video here.

Lee is so frustrated, she is even calling on Obama to simply exert executive power to implement the payroll tax cut extension. I’ll have to consult my pocket U.S. Constitution to be certain, but I’m pretty sure he has no such power:

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) said Tuesday that President Obama “absolutely” should use his executive power to continue the unemployment benefits and payroll tax cut extension and said she hoped to discuss the option with the White House later in the day.

Crazy Man Speaking...Golden Oldies

This clip that we posted last year demonstrates quite well the insanity of Ron Paul’s foreign policies. This interview took place back June of 2010, just days after the infamous flotilla incident in which Ron Paul came out against Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip saying that embargoes were an act of war, and charging that Israel was not permitting humanitarian aid in to the people that he described were “almost like in concentration camps”:

I think sanctions, embargoes and boycotts, preventing goods from going in, is actually an act of war. …
I think it’s absolutely wrong to prevent people that are starving and having problems that are almost like in concentration camps and saying “yes we endorse this whole concept that we can’t allow ships to go in there in a humanitarian way”.
I think it’s just terrible and I don’t think we should be part of it. Even though if we weren’t involved I would say nothing. So I think this would be a perfect opportunity to argue the case that, you know, “Israel, if you want to do this, you’re on your own. We’re not backing you up!”

What has he been reading, Palestinian propaganda? He’s not even educated on what is actually going on in the Middle East!

Then, when confronted with the truth that they were allowing humanitarian aid in, but were simply trying to prevent weapons from falling into the hands of Hamas, he defended Hamas as a legitimate government as though they should be allowed to get whatever weapons they want. Unbelievable!

Real Employment Records

by Tom Blumer | Newsbusters

The establishment press will never tell their readers, listeners and viewers that the five best-performing states in job growth through the first eleven months of this year, as well as nine of the top eleven, have relatively conservative Republicans occupying their respective governors’ mansions. If these eleven star performers had only performed as well as the rest of the nation, over 300,000 fewer people would be working, and the unemployment rate would be at least 0.2% higher.

The list, based on date released today by Uncle Sam’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, includes several against which the Obama administration has undertaken significant job-killing or job-deferring actions (i.e., these states have outperformed despite the handicaps, and would have done much better without them):

Here it is:

Nine red states with 21% of the population are responsible for almost one-third of this year’s seasonally adjusted job growth. Only two blue states have been relatively strong contributors. Job growth in the rest of the country has been barely half of that seen in the eleven listed states.

Eric Holder Accomplice To Murder?

By Coach Collins, on December 19th, 2011

by Doug Book, staff writer, Coach is Right

Documents obtained by Salt Lake City attorney Jesse Trentadue in a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit show then Clinton Deputy Attorney General Eric Holder authorized members of the FBI to provide explosives to Oklahoma City bombing criminals Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols immediately prior to the April, 1995 bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah building.

Holder had authorized the FBI to provide the explosives to McVeigh and Nichols in conjunction with a Clinton Administration undercover operation named PATCON, an acronym for “Patriot Conspiracy.” As Jesse Trentadue describes it, “PATCON was designed to infiltrate and incite… militia[s] and evangelical Christians to violence so that the Department of Justice could crush them.” 

(1)
Both Waco and Ruby Ridge are now known to have been PATCON inspired, Department of Justice plots.
Shortly after the Oklahoma City bombing, Holder instructed FBI agents to recover from Terry Nichols any remainder of the explosives the Bureau had provided him and McVeigh. To the chagrin of Eric Holder, the explosives were later discovered by another agency, complete with the fingerprints of Nichols, McVeigh and 2 FBI agents. Holder had reportedly offered Nichols respite from the death penalty for his cooperation in recovering the explosives. Obviously the Deputy Attorney General considered covering up his criminal complicity in the bombing eminently worth sparing Nichols just punishment for the murders of 168 innocent Americans.
Jesse Trentadue accidentally came across PATCON while investigating the murder of his brother Kenneth at the hands of the Clinton Department of Justice. An FBI informant familiar with the Oklahoma City bombing story, Kenneth was found hanged in his cell after having been jailed by the FBI. Though an official FBI report had listed Kenneth as a suicide, it was obvious that he had been severely beaten and his throat cut.

Upon Jesse taking the federal government to court, a federal judge ruled that the FBI had not only lied about Kenneth Trentadue’s death, the Bureau was also found guilty of having destroyed evidence concerning the case. In 2001 the Trentadue family was awarded $1.1 million, $250,000 of which remains a reward for information leading to the conviction of Kenneth Trentadue’s killers.

In late November, Newsweek magazine was to run a story revealing the history of PATCON, the Oklahoma City bombing complete with the part played by Eric Holder, the FBI initiated killings at Waco and Ruby Ridge and the subsequent murder of Kenneth Trentadue. But as Mike Vanderboegh, owner of the Sipsey Street Irregulars blog reports, Newsweek senior editor Tina Brown was “convinced” by members of the Clinton and Obama Administrations to remove certain information from the lengthy R M Schneiderman article. So although originally approved for publication by Newsweek editor John Solomon, the article which finally appeared in the magazine had been cut to pieces, undoubtedly providing great relief to Holder, Clinton, Clinton Attorney General Janet Reno and many other current and former members of the Department of Justice.

It hardly needs pointed out that this and other extraordinary stories of corruption and facilitation of murder by the Clinton and Obama Administrations stink to high heaven. A number of links for further reading have been provided below. Rest assured that we at Coach is Right will continue to pursue the stories of PATCON, Fast and Furious and any other examples of executive branch corruption. It’s doubtful we will want for material.

Twas The Night Before Solstice

Twas the night before solstice and all through the co-op
Not a creature was messing the calm status quo up.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds,
Dreaming of lentils and warm whole-grain breads.
We’d welcomed the winter that day after school
By dancing and drumming, and burning the Yule,
A more meaningful gesture to honor the planet
Than buying more trinkets for Mum or Aunt Janet,
Or choosing a tree just to murder and stump it,
And dress it all up like a seasonal strumpet.

My lifemate and I, having turned down the heat,
Slipped under the covers for a well-deserved sleep,
When from out on the lawn there came such a roar
I fell from my futon and rolled to the floor.
I crawled to the window and pulled back the latch,
And muttered, “Aw, where is that Neighborhood Watch?”

I saw there below through the murk of the night
A sleigh and eight reindeer of non-standard height.
At the reins of that sleigh sat a mean-hearted knave
Who treated each deer like his personal slave.
I’d seen him before in some ads for car loans,
Plus fast food and soft drinks and cellular phones.
He must have cashed in from his mercantile chores,
Since self-satisfaction just ooozed from his pores.

He called each by name, as if he were right
To treat them like humans, entrenching his might:
“Now Donder, now Blitzen,” and other such aliases,
Showing his true Euro-centrical biases.
With a snap of his fingers, away they all flew,
Like lumberjacks served with a plate of tofu.

Up to the roof-top they carried the sleigh.
(The holes in the shingles are there to this day.)
Out bounded the man, who went straight to the flue.
I knew in an instant just what I should do.

After donning my slippers, downstairs did I dash
To see this trespasser emerge from the ash.
His clothes were all covered with soot, but of course,
From our wood-fueled alternative energy source.
Through the grime I distinguished the make of his duds –
He was dressed all in fur, fairly dripping with blood.
“We’re a cruelty-free house!” I proclaimed with such heat
He was startled and tripped on the logs at his feet.

He stood back up dazed, with mirth in his eyes.
It was then that I noticed his unhealthy size.
But that wasn’t all to make sane persons choke:
In his teeth sat a pipe that was belching out smoke!
I could scarcely believe what invaded our house;
This carcinogenic and over-weight louse
Was so red in the face from his energy spent,
I expected a heart attack right there and then.

Behind him he toted a red velvet bag
Full to exploding with sinister swag.
He asked,”Where’s your tree?” with a face somewhat long.
I said, “Out in the yard, which is where it belongs.”
“But where will I put all the presents I’ve bought?”
I looked at him squarely and said, “Take the lot
To some frivolous people who think that they need
To succumb to the sickness of commerce and greed,
Whose only joy comes from the act of consuming,
Thus sending the stock of the retailers booming.”

He blinked and said, “Ho, ho, ho,! But you’re kidding!”
I gave him a stare that was stern and forbidding.
“Surely children need something with which to have fun?
It’s like childhood’s over before it’s begun.”

He looked in my eyes for some sign of assent,
But I strengthened my will and refused to relent.
“They have plenty of fun,” I cut to the gist,
“And your mindless distractions have never been missed.
They take CPR so that they can save lives,
And go door-to-door for the used-clothing drives.
They re-cycle, renew, reuse – and reveal
For saving the planet a laudable zeal.
When they padlock themselves to a fence to protest
Against nuclear power, we think they’re the best.”

He said, “But they’re children – lo, when do they play?”
I countered, “Is that why you’ve driven your sleigh,
To bring joy to the hearts of each child and tot?
All right, open your bag; let’s see what you’ve got.”
He sheepishly did as I’d asked and behold!
A Malibu Barbie in a skirt made of gold.
“You think that my girls will like playing with this,
An icon of sexist, consumerist kitsch?
With its unnatural figure and airheaded grin,
This trollop makes every girl yearn to be thin,
And take up fad diets and binging and purging
Instead of respecting her own body’s urging
To welcome the shape that her body has found
And rejoice to be lanky, short, skinny or round.”

Deep in his satchel he searched for a toy,
Saying, “This is a hit with most little boys.”
And what did he put in my trembling hand
But a gun from the BrainBlasters Power Command!
“It’s a ‘hit,’ to be sure,” I sneered in his face,
“And a plague to infect the whole human race!
How about grenades or some working bazookas
To turn all of our kids into half-wit palookas?”

I seized on his bag just to see for myself
The filth being spread by this odious elf.
An Easy-Bake Oven – ah, goddess, what perfidy!
To hoodwink young girls into household captivity!

Plus an archery play set with shafts that fly out,
The very thing needed, to put your eye out.
And toy metal tractors, steam shovels, and cranes
For tearing down woodlands and scarring the plains,
Plus “games” like Monopoly, Pay Day, Tycoon,
As if lessons in greed can’t start up too soon.
And even more weapons from BrainBlasters Co.,
Like cannons and nunchucks and ray guns that glow.

That’s all I could find in his red velvet sack –
Perverseness and mayhem to set us all back.
(But I did find one book that caused me to ponder –
Some fine bedtime tales by a fellow named Garner.)
“We need none of this,” I announced in a huff,
“No ‘business-as-usual’ holiday stuff.
We sow in our offspring more virtue than this.
Your ‘toys’ offer some things they never will miss.”

The big man’s expression was a trifle bereaved
As he shouldered his pack and got ready to leave.
“I pity the kids who grow up around here,
Who’re never permitted to be of good cheer.
Who aren’t allowed leisure for leisure’s own sake,
But must fret every minute – it makes my heart break!”

“Enough histrionics! Don’t pity our kids
If they don’t do as Macy’s or Toys ‘R’ Us bids.
They live by their principles first and foremost
And know what’s important,” to him did I boast.

“Pray, could I meet them?” “Oh no, they’re not here.
They’re up on the roof, liberating your deer!”
Then Santa sputtered and pointed his finger
But, mad as he was, he had no time to linger.
He flew up on the chimney like smoke from a fire,
And up on the roof I heard voices get higher.

I ran outside the co-op to see him react
To my children’s responsible, kind-hearted act.
He chased them away, and disheartened, dismayed,
He re-hitched his reindeer (who’d docilely stayed).
I watched with delight as he scooted of then.
He’d be too embarrassed to come back again.

But with parting disdain, do you know what he said,
When this overweight huckster took off in his sled?
This reindeer enslaver, this exploiter of elves?
“Happy Christmas to all, but get over yourselves!”

– James Finn Garner

This Lunatic (and his Paulbots) Have Got To Go

No folks, I am not going to let this one go. Ron Paul's steady approval numbers and massive money bomb capabilities combined with Obama's numbers...dismal as they may seem...add up to a defeat for the GOP candidate in any scenario I can envision. We must not permit this to happen, and Paul's continued presence in this field of candidates must be terminated as soon as possible! Then he can back off, or show his true colors as the spoiler that I believe him to be.

After asking Ron Paul what 3 things he would do first after inauguration, Paul says there isn’t much one man could do very quickly, but the one thing he could do immediately is send a message to the world that America’s foreign policy has changed, and that we are not looking for wars and want peaceful solutions to problems...Alex Jones Video Here

So, the one thing that I absolutely disagree with Ron Paul on is the one thing he says he can probably get done immediately.

The recent drone incident, and Ron Paul’s reaction, should give you an indication of this Paul policy.

Paul says that it’s all just propaganda that Iran is getting close to making a nuclear bomb. Then when an information gathering drone went down over Iran the debate became, in his words, “should we ask for it back, or should we go in and destroy it?”
Paul pulls up his grandpa pants to chest level and shakes a bony fist while croaking, “we shouldn’t ought to be sending those trouble making flying machines over there.”

Well, big brain, how do we determine if Iran’s nuke capabilities is “just propaganda”? Or don’t you even want to know?

See, this is the danger of Ron Paul.

Why don’t you take a big swig of Milk of Magnesia and calm the frig down while the steely-eyed trouble makers protect the world, okay gramps?

Rednecks Deserve A Break Today

It’s time for a different type of redneck joke. Rednecks know who they are, and have been very tolerant of mockery, and they don’t require the jokes to come from another redneck, lest you be killed.

Take a look at these and ask yourself, am I a redneck?


You might be a redneck if:  It never occurred to you to be offended  by the phrase, ‘One nation under God.’

You might be a redneck if:  You’ve never been offended by seeing the 10 Commandments posted in a  public place,

You might be a redneck if:  You still say ‘ Christmas’ instead of  ‘Winter  Festival.’

You might be a  redneck if:  You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if:  You stand and place your hand over your  heart when they play the National Anthem.

You  might be a redneck if: You  treat our armed forces veterans with great respect.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren’t afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if:  You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the  same.

You  might be a redneck if: You’ve ever  given  your last dollar to a friend.

You  might be a redneck if:  You believe in God & Jesus and believe that others have the right to believe in a different God as long as their God does not command them to kill infidels.

You  might be a redneck if:  You’ve never burned, urinated on, defecated on, spit on, or stepped on the American flag.
