In a presentation he acknowledged was “blunt” and “rude,” Fowler said “it seems that Liberals today don’t stand for much in the way of principle.
Do I smell a "Human Rights" complaint?

The first disadvantage of an elite education, as I learned in my kitchen that day, is that it makes you incapable of talking to people who aren’t like you.(h/t maggie's farm)
I’m not talking about curricula or the culture wars, the closing or opening of the American mind, political correctness, canon formation, or what have you. I’m talking about the whole system in which these skirmishes play out.
