It is almost big enough to be a Canadian province. Somehow they don’t seem as appreciative of that fact as one might hope.

…a state that’s ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT HOW BIG IT IS, too.

The US is now losing a war of choice, because the administration, and the media, and about half of American citizens, cared no more about the truth of things than they did about the proper use of the Sanskrit alphabet.

Am I like them, just a bigot learning only what fits my worldview? That’s what he kept asking himself. But finally he reached the conclusion: No, he was not.

wait a second—
this could also mean that you, like the hero, were at Princeton as an undercover agent who is planning to wage war on The Left and smash the Radical Professoriate before it can betray America and hand over our country to the French.

I see it all now—you’re actually working hand in glove with Glenn Reynolds, Pat Buchanan, and Eric Rudolph. You’re just under deeper cover. All that stuff about your being a “sociologist”. Hah. From “Europe”. Yeah right.

Diabolical!!

And despite the fact that Princeton dresses seniors in beer jackets and invites them to reunions (along with every other class every year), the level of ridiculous “tradition”-mongering by aTm’s students and “former students” cannot be matched. We’re talking about a school that has a scoreboard outside the football stadium for the team’s dead mascots!

Being located close to A&M, I find this both quite possible and giving Princeton entirely too much credit. They are second-rate worshippers of the undergrad alma mater, compared to what it takes to piss off an entire state the size of Texas with chauvinism.
