"David Horowitz's Odd Gripe" (funny & sad; Horowitz is such a whore.)
David Horowitz's Odd Gripe
By JUSTIN E. H. SMITH

...If David Horowitz were to linger in the halls of a university for a while, if he were to take leave for a time of his supplicating young hosts, he would admittedly not hear paeans to Gertrude Himmelfarb. But nor would he hear students, zombie-like, reciting postmodernist radical cant. He would be scowled at for being too old, and he would hear the tedious din of free-market capitalism at work, churning out new generations of blank-minded actuaries, vapid go-get-'em salesmen, and unreflective middle-managers, one finance midterm at a time...<snip>

I am a 64 year old retired construction guy and what I studied at Pitt was poly. sci. and labor history,so my humanity education is learned on the streets. I ask you to keep your ideals in place keep teaching. There are many out here that thou old still belive in all around education. Besides any one with an avatar of my hero ZAPPA can't be far off track.

Been my hero since Stony Brook Halloween late show 1971.

If he were alive today he'd slice these repubs to RIBBONS!
