Laura-is-a-plague-INGRAHAM, Editor of Scalito's CAP "Prospect"
The same scum of the earth keep surfacing in the wingnut universe. INGRAHAM was editor of the CAP's magazine, which, under her became more provocative and aggressive. Other members, David ASMAN and NAPOLITANO of Faux, D'Souza, and Terry EASTLAND of the Weakly Standard. INGRAHAM coverted to Catholicism a couple of three years ago, but any kind of Christian kindness or spirituality is not evident, any more than it is with O'LOOFAH or HANNITY.

.... One might be taken aback that in applying for a promotion in the Reagan Administration, Alito offered as a conservative credential his membership in a group which see students from group traditionally excluded from Princeton (like my parents) as "vitiating" the "alumni body." But lucky for Sam Alito, former Concerned Alumni of Princeton starlet turned conservative superstar Laura Ingraham is on hand to reassure us that any good conservative would see an influx of Blacks, Jews, and women as a threat to higher learning:

"Stop the presses!" she said. "Sam Alito, a conservative, was once a member of a conservative Princeton alumni group."

Feel better yet?

The organization, co-chaired in the beginning by Asa Bushnell and Shelby Cullom Davis, put forth a magazine called the "Prospect," espousing right-wing views against the inclusion of women, minorities, and other groups into Princeton. The New York Times notes, "The magazine's content also grew increasingly provocative under the editorship of conservative rising stars, including Dinesh D'Souza and later Laura Ingraham." The magazine was so extreme that a 1975 alumni panel including Sen. Bill Frist (R-TN) refused to support it, concluding "that Concerned Alumni had 'presented a distorted, narrow and hostile view of the university that cannot help but have misinformed and even alarmed many alumni' and 'undoubtedly generated adverse national publicity.'"

2. A woman against women in college? How very femme republican.
Female republicans are sell-outs to our gender and they enable their republican masters to oppress the rest of us. They are insults to women everywhere and are the lowest of the low.

They are throwbacks to the days of the Inquisition and the Witch Trials.

Female republicans are both brain dead and stupid - chickens voting for Colonel Sanders.

3. & D'SOUZA, another MALKIN, anti-immigrant and minority

.... Liberal intolerance and racial preferences

D'Souza challenges liberal (left-wing) beliefs and projects such as affirmative action, and social welfare programs. His first and second books, Illiberal Education and The End of Racism, came under critical attack from many liberals but were widely supported by conservatives. In the first, he argued that the ostensible tolerance practiced by many universities was actually an intolerance of any conservative view, and this theme has been continued by university professors such as Mike Adams in Welcome to the Ivory Tower of Babel: Confessions of a Conservative College Professor. D'Souza's denial of the existence of institutionalized racism in modern American society (especially since he is an immigrant and member of a minority race himself) has made him an enemy of many civil rights groups and leaders, including Jesse Jackson. ....

4. Wonder how it makes Ingraham, D'Souza, et al, to hear CAP denounced
by the Republicans on the Judiciary Committee. Old Hatch himself has been adamant that poor Sammy had nothing, nothing to do with this awful group. And Sammy The Goose just can't seem to remember a damned thing about it and why it put it on a job application in 1985.

Are Laura and Dinesh becoming a bit toxic these days?

7. Just looked it up: she went to Dartmouth
There is nothing unusual about right-wing big mouths coming out of Dartmouth.

8. Yip, Dartmouth, so Princeton outsourced the editorship?
And the Wikipedia lists SOME of her lays, including D'SOUZA, but omits Tim HUTCHINSON, whom she was doing at the same time both of them and the rest of the hypocritical wingnuts were going after CLINTON for sex.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laura_Ingraham

Ingraham holds a bachelor's degree from Dartmouth College and a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree from the University of Virginia. During her years at Dartmouth, she wrote for the conservative newspaper The Dartmouth Review. In 2002, David Brock wrote in his book, Blinded by the Right, that while writing for The Dartmouth Review, Ingraham attended meetings of gay student organizations for the purpose of publicly outing them in the newspaper. ....

Ingraham once was engaged to conservative author Dinesh D'Souza and has dated former United States Senator Robert Torricelli of New Jersey.

In April 2005, Ingraham announced she was engaged to businessman James V. Reyes, with a planned wedding in May or June, 2005. On April 26, 2005, she announced on the air that she had undergone surgery for the treatment of breast cancer. On May 11, 2005, Ingraham told listeners that her engagement to Reyes had been canceled, citing issues regarding her diagnosis with breast cancer. Despite the break-up, she maintains that the two remain good friends.

9. I'm guessing the story is wrong
She was writing for the Dartmouth Review. I don't think the Prospect lasted that long. It was not an on-campus publication when I was there in the early 90s.

10. Would they let a woman work
at a club to keep women out of Princeton?
