i'm not so sure i buy into the 10,000 number, but i think we have plenty of evidence that the colleges and universities are breeding plenty of communists, marxists, and socialists. when are own president refers to "collective action" it's not hard to see that the doctrine of the radicals is firmly entrenched in our gov't and elites of the country. The notion of hordes of card-carrying communist professors plotting to destroy America is what I'm calling horseshit. And it is. Colleges are, by demographic and intent, a place where young, bright people are exposed to the cumulative knowledge of the world. They are not, nor should they be, dogmatically this way or that way politically. I knew people of all stripes in college. I knew professors of all stripes with one exception. Never one time did I ever have a professor so much as hint at pushing communism. Much less whip out his [bleep] card.

according to wikipedia, "a totalitarian regime attempts to control every aspect of public and private life". it definetly seems as though we are on that path when you look at things are politicians are either passing or trying to. regulating the internet, control of the banking, control of the auto industry, public nutrition requirements, firearm restriction, trying to legislate activity between consenting adults, etc. etc. seriously, if you don't see this coming a mile away you have the blinders on.

We are so NOT "almost totalitarian".
The hyperbole around here gets a little over the top.

Marxism is not part of the cumulative knowledge of the world but is rather a failing of human nature and a manifestation of the basest instincts of the human race which has resulted in unspeakable horrors. And yes, it was pushed on me at the two Universities I attended. To deny that indoctrination doesn't happen exposes you as either a liar who has never studied at an institution of higher learning or, even worse, as one who has and chooses to lie about the experience because you agree with the Marxian thought that has infected our colleges and universities.

Never happened to me, but I'm an independent sort and non-trivial to indoctrinate. YMMV. Methinks the lady doth protest too much by the way. You a closet Marxist?

I can laugh at the nuttiness of the Right just as easily as that of the Left. In fact, the similarities in rhetoric, demonization of leaders, exaggerations, distortions, and outright fabrications, are about equally distributed.
