"Eric Foner's assertion that a preemptive war against Iraq would take us back "to the notion of the rule of the jungle" seems quite on the mark given the events over the past 5 years. "

This is hardly the case. We are at war with an enemy with no regard for human life, humanity, or dignity. We fight this war with tied hands and PC rules. While our enemy may be under the rule of the jungle, we are not. The reason we are not is the liberal "feel good" establishment, fueled by the indoctrinated students of our universities who are coerced to think, read, and write as socialist stooges in order to gain a passing grade.

This horrible condition permeates all manner of our educational institutions. My own sister encountered the liberal bias at business college of all places. Many of her papers went to the Dean for grading because her right leaning papers were uncerimonioiusly discarded out of hand. In a brilliant twist, she wrote a seemingly glorious left wing paper for one professor which earned her an "A" only to offer an equally glorious rebutal with the next paper which saw the Dean to get her "A".

Freedom of speech for all is protected by those who sacrifice in our military. Meanwhile liberal academics screech about free speech only when that speech is the right speech. Therein lies the problem. We must restrict these liberals. Not by restricting their speech but rather though repercussions of their sedition.

Loss of public funding to institutions, loss of job if a public institution, and other such methods. The liberals will still have their freedom of speech but they will understand that America shall hold them accountable for their treason!
