[QUOTE="emapples, post: 3441720, member: 11752"] I think you are making a mistake assuming we ever received “just the facts”. We have Alinskian news today, todays news/media is just a tool to apply his principles from Rules for Radicals. As far as your experience in higher ed, you have to remember you live in the one of the last bastions of conservatism in the country (so i would say of course its less than the mean) [LIST=1] [*]"Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have."
