A new study of how criminals vote found that most convicts register Democratic, a key reason in why liberal lawmakers and governors are eager for them to get back into the voting booth after their release. “Democrats would benefit from additional ex-felon participation,” said the authoritative study in The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science. The authors, professors from the University of Pennsylvania and Stanford University, found that in some states, felons register Democratic by more than six-to-one. In New York, for example, 61.5 percent of convicts are Democrats, just 9 percent Republican. They also cited a study that found 73 percent of convicts who turn out for presidential elections would vote Democrat. But despite recent moves in states to notify convicts that they can vote again, the study finds little evidence that they do, undercutting Democratic efforts to get them to the polls.

FBI Director James Comey defended the work of his agents Wednesday in a memo to staff, arguing the decision to spare Hillary Clinton and her aides from prosecution for their mistreatment of classified information was not a difficult one. I have no patience for suggestions that we conducted ourselves as anything but what we are — honest, competent, and independent, Comey wrote in the memo, first obtained by CNN. Those suggesting that we are 'political' or part of some 'fix' either don't know us, or they are full of baloney (and maybe some of both). The FBI director faced renewed criticism Friday after his agency published a scathing 58-page summary of the Clinton email investigation just hours before the Labor Day weekend commenced. But Comey stood by the timing of the report's release, which came shortly after he said agents completed their review of the material.

Speaking in Laos, President Obama found another audience eager to embrace his perverse view of the Americans who elected him twice. Twice, he called Americans “lazy.” Not lazy because they continue to vote for Democrats who forcibly extract money from those who earn more than they do and hand it out to them. No, said Obama, Americans are lazy because they don’t care enough about the environment, and because they aren’t considerate enough of foreign countries.
Seriously.

Here at the University of Colorado, where I’ve just begun my sophomore year, I am enrolled in an “Intro to Political Science” class — which I expected would be taught by a rational and fair professor. In my first day of class, however, it became apparent my initial expectation of fair and balanced discourse was simply the callow misjudgment of a second-year student. One might think teachers at an institution of higher learning would be more concerned with presenting facts than opinions to a classroom of impressionable college students. For this professor, however, I guess that is too much to ask. Arriving to class excited on day one, I anxiously staked out what would be my seat for the rest of the semester. I sat down and listened as the professor introduced himself and gave his background. I braced myself as he presented some of his personal views. I later cringed as he laced his shameless Muslim apologetics into shaming the United States military. I was then
