Witch Hunting at the University of Kentucky

Alright, time for another Jon Stewart WTF moment.

The Family Foundation has issued a hit list of six UK faculty members.

”We're trying to highlight where public money is being spent,“ (Martin) Cothran said. ”We're asking should we basically be funding the (political) left through the universities with public money.“

Cothran said ”all of the politicization of the academy is coming from the left.“

Given the the actions of the Family Foundation I'm not even going to comment on how idiotic that statement is.

UK and other universities might have achieved greater diversity in terms of color, gender and nationality, but the political left controls the prevailing campus ideology, and that control amounts to ”partisan political activity,“ Cothran said.

If we are in the process of purging politicization from the University of Kentucky I’d like to add a person to the Foundations list.
