Shoreline."

"The Truth About Tuskegee"
By Jared Taylor
The Tuskegee syphilis study ranks almost with slavery and lynching as a symbol of America's racist past. There is probably not one black American adult who does not know—or thinks he knows—about an experiment from the 1930s in which government health authorities deliberately withheld treatment from 400 black syphilitics just to see what would happen to them.

A Victory Against Voter Fraud - WSJ.com
A Victory Against Voter Fraud - WSJ.com: "So we have the irony of two liberal icons in sharp disagreement over yesterday's Supreme Court decision. Justice Stevens, the real reformer, believes voter ID laws are justified to prevent fraud. Barack Obama, the faux reformer, hauls out discredited rhetoric that they disenfranchise voters."

The Muskegon Chronicle... Racial diversity of its news staff and community
Things are gettin' kinda "racist" at The Chronicle.... if you define "racist" as gettin' rid of the "folks of color" and replacing them with them with white breads.
Facts are dangerous things......

Muskegon principal talks about recent school studies - mlive.com
Muskegon principal talks about recent school studies - mlive.com: "The best way to say it is that Johns Hopkins holds all schools in contention for that. In other words, they're looking at schools no matter whether you have 300 students and you come from an economically successful area, or whether you have, in our case, about 5,000 kids in the total district and it's considered an economically-distressed area. So they're weighing the entire group, the entire spectrum of schools. For a school that fits our profile, we're doing well. But we are not considering ourselves based against schools like ours; we need to compete with schools in general. So we're trying to compete with those proficient schools as much as anybody else."
A very sad NON-ANSWER to the question of why the Muskegon HS kids do so poorly in reedin', ritin' and nummers.
Ya can't fix it if ya deny it's broken.

Pacifist?
Instapundit.com -: "A collection of essays, including one on a particular breed of pacifist that Chesterton saw as new in the 20th Century: 'He does not so much believe in his own conscience as disbelieve in the common conscience which is the soul of any society. His hatred for patriotism is very much plainer than his love for peace.'"

Time to Compromise on Gun Control::By Mike S. Adams
Time to Compromise on Gun Control::By Mike S. Adams: "unfortunately, the political science professor let his feelings get the better of him, which led directly to my change of heart on gun control. He began hurling epithets like “stupid, ignorant, and crazy” to the nineteen year old Millage. He so badly disrupted the event that the College Republican President called me in my office asking that I come over to try and calm him down.
I gladly complied with her request – largely because I know that these events generate intelligent debate until the first professor shows up."
Another excellent column exposing the "free speech for me but not for thee" atmosphere that is the American University today.
Read to the end where Mr Adams makes a controversial proposal on gun control.

Supreme Court upholds photo ID law for voters in Indiana
Supreme Court upholds photo ID law for voters in Indiana
"The Supreme Court ruled Monday that states can require voters to produce photo identification without violating their constitutional rights, validating Republican-inspired voter ID laws."
Imagine a party that opposed this logical method of preventing voter fraud.... The Democrat Party!
Yes, there are serious differences between the two political parties.
In a splintered 6-3 ruling, the court upheld Indiana's strict photo ID requirement, which Democrats and civil rights groups said would deter poor, older and minority voters from casting ballots. Its backers said it was needed to deter fraud.
The poor liberal writing this "painful" piece shows their bias with the "splintered" definition of a solid 6-3 vote.
Disgusting and just more proof of the MSM's slavish liberalism.

CNN's Soledad: Rev. Wright Speech a 'Home-Run'
CNN's Soledad: Rev. Wright Speech a 'Home-Run'
"Only black children 50 years ago were singled out as speaking bad English. In the 1961, it's been all over the internet now. John Kennedy could stand at the inauguration and say [attempting to imitate JFK's Boston accent]: 'ask not what your country can do for you. Ask rather what you can do for your country.' How do you spell 'ask'? [which Wright pronounced 'esk' in supposed imitation of JFK]."
So, encouraging black youngsters to continue "Detroit speak" isn't child abuse?
How can they get any job outside of Detroit?

Detroit is a national disgrace!
DETNEWS Weblog Daniel Howes' Blog: "This weekend's Wall Street Journal, arguably the most influential newspaper on the planet, offers yet another exhibit in the case to prove why Detroit is a national laughingstock."
State senator drops plan to flunk third-graders who can't read
"Hudsonville Superintendent Roxanne DeWeerd said ......
'Early intervention makes sense, but I'd be surprised if there are districts not already doing that. It's a common practice,' DeWeerd said. 'Teachers check for progress along the way. We don't wait for the MEAP scores to tell us there's a problem.'"
'Early intervention makes sense, but I'd be surprised if there are districts not already doing that. It's a common practice,' DeWeerd said. 'Teachers check for progress along the way. We don't wait for the MEAP scores to tell us there's a problem.'"
So we "graduate" illiterate third graders to the next grade (where they don't teach 3rd grade reading anymore)?
And we can be assured that "educators" are right on the problem and "don't wait for MEAP scores" to fix the problem.
Yeah, right.

TorontoSun.com - Feeling a little green, are we?
Feeling a little green, are we?: "Indeed, it seems like only yesterday I awoke to my Saturday, January 27, 2007 Globe to be greeted by the hysterical, front-page headline 'Welcome to the new climate,' under a politically correct green masthead, declaring at the bottom: 'We want action. We're ready for sacrifices.'"
