Senator Patrick Moynihan, no Bill Buckley, became the target of campus leftist radicals over his 1964 treatise on the inner city welfare “family.”

The only problem was, none of these morons actually read the paper (I verified this personally). This really pissed me off. So I started writing for the best paper on campus, which wasn’t really on campus, just to piss them off.

Colleagues of mine went on to become things like an ABC National Security reporter, and a NYT bestselling author. The latter observed about the situation, “I love liberal cannibalism.”

Beautiful.

This is by no means a new phenomenon. It is, however, a major warning/red flag to parents who expect to send their children to institutes of “higher education” that the extreme has literally seized control of objective thought and replaced it with dogshit.
