"The victory belongs to colleges"

Dennis, I know you have been to high schools and you have talked to high school students quite a bit, though most likely you have never spent hours at a time among the bull sessions they can have when they think no adult (or none that matters, at any rate) is listening. I think that is the reason you don't seem to know much about how much indoctrination goes on at that level, on the taxpayer's dime.

I'll let a teacher speak for herself. In the course of her rather brief discourse, she spoke for all teachers by using the plural "we" most of the time. She told a conservative:

"You have converted me. I was very liberal until a year or two ago. And I taught all my liberal principles to the kids in my classes. I didn't think of it as indoctrination, it was simply the truth, the right way to look at things. I had no idea there was another point of view. In fact, we all believed, and reassured each other whenever we'd meet in the teachers' lounge or in faculty meetings, that any other point of view was evil and contrary to progress. And we certainly didn't want those poor children growing up with an evil point of view."

She was there to rescue kids from conservatism, from the old American values. And it was her job to do it.
