"There are thousands of Young America's Foundations around the country for the left," says Daniel Flynn, director of the Campus Leadership Program at the Leadership Institute and author of the new left-bashing book Intellectual Morons. "They're called Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford...
...that the students have started to mimic the left's rhetoric of victimhood. A prominent student conservative--Charles Mitchell of Pennsylvania's Bucknell University--urged conference attendees to return to their campuses and create "safe zones" for conservatives, who are, he said, "constantly under attack."

"It could be the only real hope of closing the school for good." And with it, activists like Bourgeois say, a dark chapter in U.S.-Latin American relations...
...titled "Partners In Crime," comes on the heels of a 67-page report released last week by the Council of Europe, which charges that 14 European countries helped the CIA move terror suspects and that two of them (Romania and Poland) likely had secret CIA prisons. That report's author, Swiss parliament member Dick Marty, used language as tough as Amnesty's, accusing the U.S. of creating "this reprehensible network" and European partners of "grossly negligent collusion...
