POLITICALLY INCORRECT: Bill Maher Blasts Liberals For Believing That Muslims Share The Same Values. “This idea that all religions share the same values is bullshit and we need to call it bullshit. . . . If you are in this religion, you probably do have values that are at odds [with American ones]. This is what liberals don’t want to recognize.”

out them.”

GANGSTER GOVERNMENT: Analysts Accuse CENTCOM of Covering Up Cooked ISIS Intelligence. “At the heart of the analysts’ allegations is what they describe as a persistent effort by Grove and his team to downplay or even change reports that that questioned how much progress a U.S.-led coalition is making in the Obama administration’s stated goal to degrade, destroy, and defeat ISIS.”

When Obama found out about it in the newspapers, he was more angry than anyone.

A CAMPUS CLIMATE OF FEAR: Univ. of Missouri student: ‘Several of us are afraid to disagree with other students.’

 HMM: Black students interrupt Univ. of Kansas Town Hall in wake of Missouri protest.

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS PAYS PROFESSOR a six-figure settlement for free-speech violation. His opinions, in my opinion, are execrable, but you don’t fire people for that. This case was a little different because they didn’t exactly fire him, but rescinded an outstanding job offer. That turned out not to make a difference. And this is KC Johnson’s take, to which I linked earlier, which seems about right.

ENDORSED: Students want Woodrow Wilson’s name removed from Princeton. “The Democrat was a leading progressive but supported segregation, including appointing Cabinet members who segregated federal departments.” This is one of those cases where a “but” should be an “and.”

A MODEST PROPOSAL FOR RENAMING RACIST CAMPUS BUILDINGS.

UN-PERSONED: Princeton President agrees to consult Board of Trustees about removing Woodrow Wilson’s name.

On the one hand, there’s a whiff of Stalinist airbrushing to this. On the other hand, Woodrow Wilson really was a horrible person and President.

SO IF WE’RE GOING TO BAN WOODROW WILSON BECAUSE HE WAS A HORRIBLE RACIST (AND HE WAS), what about FDR, who segregated bathrooms when Secretary of the Navy, and imprisoned over 100,000 people becouse of their race?

‘BLACK LIVES MATTER’ GETS ONE RIGHT: Woodrow Wilson Was a Terrible Racist:

DEAR LIBERALS, STOP DEFENDING RACIST PROGRESSIVE WOODROW WILSON: “Surprisingly, the 28th president still has his defenders on the left,” Damon Root writes at Reason, although much like the MSM’s constant stream of “unexpectedly” bad economic news post-January of 2009, I’m not sure what’s “surprising” about Wilson’s sclerotic “Progressive” defenders

ALWAYS THE LAST TO KNOW: The New York Times finally discovers what the right has known for years: that “Progressive” icon Woodrow Wilson and the man whose wartime administration was the prototype for FDR’s New Deal (whose collectivist slogan was “We Planned In War” — i.e., WWI) was a stone cold racist. As Steve Hayward writes at Power Line, the Times “still haven’t been able to connect the dots between Wilson’s racism and his progressive ideology, nor grasp the irony that Wilson was merely aiming to provide blacks with a ‘safe space,’ as we say nowadays. We know liberals are slow learners, but this is embarrassing, unless the Times is planning to announce tomorrow that it has in fact decided to compete with The Onion.“

Charles Paul Freund wrote of “Dixiecrats Triumphant: The menacing Mr. Wilson” at Reason magazine back in 2002. Jonah Goldberg wrote about Wilson’s racism and his administration’s central role as the prototype of the New Deal in 2008′s best-selling Liberal Fascism and in this concurrent excerpt in the Christian Science Monitor. But it’s nice to see the Times finally stumble kicking and screaming into the truth as well — if only to really make an unperson of “the menacing Mister Wilson.” (Don’t let them.)

EVIDENCING A SURPRISING DEGREE OF SANITY AND REALISM: D.C. Chief Lanier encourages people to “take the gunman out” in active shooter situations.

GUN TURN-IN PROGRAM not living up to media spin:

Police-community partnerships are a positive measure to increase public safety, but good intentions aren’t the same thing as a good (or effective) plan. A report by Time-Warner Cable News tried to put a positive spin on things by noting that “almost 1,000 people” responded to take the pledge, leading one to believe that 1,000 firearms had been turned in, but this was hardly the case. As evidenced by the footage accompanying the story, the gun turn-in apparently resulted in a single BB pistol and a single sheathed hunting knife being “taken off the streets.”

It’s Potemkin coverage all the way down.

FLASHBACK 1974: CIA WARNED GLOBAL COOLING WOULD CAUSE TERRORISM: “This sounds eerily similar to arguments Sanders made during the Democratic presidential debate Saturday evening, in which he argued man-made global warming made Syria’s drought worse and led to the rise of the Islamic State. It’s an argument increasingly in the mouths of Democrats over the past year.”
