What’s happening to Education under the Union/Democratic regime
A couple of weeks ago, there was a story in the Wall Street Journal entitled "Medical-School Test Gets a Revamp". No kidding!

Islam's holy book advocates forced conversion or murder for "apostates" and unbelievers.

It started with an essay in the (supposedly) high-minded publication for Wall Street Journal subscribers, WSJ Magazine.

Thanks to a fellow Ricochet member for this. I think it's perfect! I believe that I have a useful tactic for opposing Obama’s executive amnesty, and I am trying to make the suggestion to influential people.
