It would be interesting to see if the Libs ever give any reasons for their bias.... What I have noticed however, is that the rest of us who don't think as Liberal academia does, are expected to shut up, and just go along with them. >>>>>THEY know all the answers, don't you know?

I suppose it was like the Danish cartoons, or Salman Rushdie's book = few of the angry actually read and even fewer understood what offended them: <After he authored "The Bell Curve," he was expelled from Academia by all right-thinking liberals. > I wonder how many have read it. It's a big book. Maybe they skimmed some of the 'dirty parts' like a child with a dictionary looking up rude words. I doubt they did even that. The same as Larry Summers was wrong though I doubt that many who criticize him have much idea at all what he wrote. Test = what were the three reasons given for women doing worse at maths and physics? Mqurice
