This short piece by Walter Williams is a real education. He addresses 5 illogical and stupid ideas taught by so called academics at our nation's colleges and universities.  These people are a huge part of the problem with our country.  What so many are doing is using their captive audience platform to dumb down students they are suppose to teach students to think for themselves and expand their understanding across a broad spectrum of ideas.   http://www.wnd.com/2017/10/5-stupid-ideas-still-taught-on-campus/  Instead of doing their job of expanding the minds of their charges they are propagandizing them with their own illogical socialistic, progressive and destructive leftist nonsense.  Williams is absolutely right.  So much of America's academia elites have lost their moral compass.

This is an outline of a book that details the devastating effects of the political left's contribution to the destruction of families and moral norms of our national culture.   http://wec.wnd.com/read/archive?id=633614&mid=3104841&e=georgeburns%40embarqmail%2ecom&x=65ad306c

The leftist driven nonsense of disrespecting the country and its fans by pampered millionaire NFL players is killing the NFL and owners are starting to take notice.  https://conservativetribune.com/after-loss-cowboys-president-ultimatum/?  

This is an example of what happens when Democrats run a state or city for any length of time.  It has happened over and over and over again.  It is a tragedy and needs to stop.  Illinois has been under Democrat control for decades.  The people elected a Republican governor to try and get things under control.  But the Democrat controlled legislature overturns his veto's and the spending continues. Their state debt is massive. Three maybe four former Democrat governors have been convicted of corruption and are now or have served time in prison.  If you want corrupt government elect Democrats and you will eventually get it.   https://www.theburningplatform.com/2017/10/11/who-would-do-business-with-the-state-of-illinois/   Corrupt Democrats and Democrat policies are a confirmed recipe for failure.  Their spend, spend and spend some more programs without consideration for how to pay for them is a infamous and recurring theme when Democrats are in charge of anything. Remember, Obama cut his teeth in Illinois politics and brought what he learned to Washington.  The disastrous results are now apparent to all who have their eyes and ears open.

It is not possible to believe anything leftist news outlets like the New York Times put out. Sometimes things may be okay. Other times not so much. The one thing we do know is that whatever left leaning outlets publish will have a definite liberal bias. The problem they create for themselves by doing this is readers do not know what to believe because of frequent later revelations that they were partly or entirely wrong.  This piece provides insight into just why that is.    https://conservativetribune.com/undercover-vid-exposes-ny-times/? 

The following paragraphs deal with leftist Hollywood Icons and Some ofTheir Leftist Political Friends.

Anyone who idolizes the icons of Hollywood needs to carefully consider who and what they are.  This piece will help people understand that they are not who they pretend to be. Quote: "Sometimes the longer you boil the pot, the more the scum rises to the top. It’s called “Hollywood.” That’s what we’re all now witnessing with a gamut of liberal Hollywood elitists now being called out by women for abuse, exploitation, misogyny and every other sicko behavior the Hollywood culture ridiculously claimed was only carried out by conservatives. Hollywood media “god” Harvey Weinstein’s world is imploding by the hour as women keep pouring out of the woodwork, affirming that he man-handled them into unwelcome gropes, perverted showers or even forced oral sex, all under the premise that Weinstein could turn them into movie stars if they would just drop their panties on command. The entire left-wing media, not surprisingly, covered up all this for at least a decade, enabling Weinstein to continue his predatory behavior that targeted young, vulnerable women. Those media outlets that engaged in the cover-up include the New York Times and NBC News, among dozens of other usual suspects."  And, "Jimmy Kimmel, Anthony Weiner, Ben Affleck, Bill Clinton, Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein… are you starting the notice the pattern here yet? They’re all Clinton supporters and die-hard leftists, and they’ve all been caught abusing women, raping women or exploiting women through predatory or highly inappropriate behavior. They all hate the Second Amendment, they’re all pro-abortion, and they all called out Donald Trump for his supposed mistreatment of women. Yet the dark secrets in their own closets are far more egregious than anything Donald Trump ever did by merely talking with the help of some raunchy locker room lingo.

Innocent women paid the price, of course, while the left-wing fake news media machine went all-in for Weinstein, becoming complicit in the multitude of crimes committed against women. In addition to the New York Times burying the story in 2004, we also now know that NBC News tried to crush the story in the last two weeks. The cover-up may have even been ordered by top executives at NBC News, reports Mediaite.com:"    https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-10-11-parade-of-dirtbags-ben-affleck-jimmy-kimmel-harvey-weinstein-all-exposed-as-liberal-hollywood-elitists-who-abuse-women.html    See what I mean?

This item exsposes how much the political left Hollywood and Democrats loved and supported Harvey Weinstein despite his long history of sexual abuse.  They now are forced to sing a much different tune.  Quote: "Democrats and liberal celebrities used to admire and praise Hollywood mogul and Democratic mega-donor Harvey Weinstein, but they have been distancing themselves from him after allegations emerged last week that he had settled sexual harassment claims with at least eight different women over the span of nearly three decades."  And, "Weinstein has also received backlash from Democratic politicians, many of whom accepted donations from him for years. Some Democrats have donated that money to various charities supporting women in the last few days after the allegations went public. Weinstein donated nearly $600,000 to Democrats since the early 2000s.  And, "Weinstein was also a major donor and bundler to the failed presidential campaigns of Hilary Clinton and two-term former president Barack Obama. Weinstein hosted multiple fundraisers for Clinton during her 2016 campaign and donated more than $30,000 to the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee between Clinton's campaign, the Democratic National Committee, and more than 30 state Democratic parties. He has also given at least $250,000 to the Clinton Foundation." And,"Obama's oldest daughter, Malia, interned for Weinstein over the summer at the Weinstein Company. Several former Obama administration officials castigated Weinstein on Twitter after the Times report came out, despite their one-time boss's silence. Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau called Weinstein "a monstrous piece of shit," while another Obama speechwriter, Jon Lovett, said "there should be congressional hearings on Weinstein, Miramax, and the Weinstein Company." Obama's former National Security Council spokesman, Tommy Vietor‏, wrote that Weinstein "has been a well-known scumbag for a long time."  http://freebeacon.com/politics/democrats-liberals-used-to-love-harvey-weinstein/?"   Notice how some of Obama's associates are now seeking all kinds of ways to distance themselves from Weinstein...that is nothing but late blooming cover.  Obama knew but still let his daughter intern with one of his organization.  Former friends and associates with full knowledge only came out against Weinstein when it is politically necessary to do so. No one should be fooled into thinking they are sincere. If he had not been exposed they would still be tight buddies.  That is who they are.
