... are: * Tim Roemer (affiliated with George Mason University, a nexus of "cosmotarianism" and support for illegal activity), * Raymond Kelly and Bill Bratton, chiefs of police of NYC and L.A. respectively, * James Lee Witt (Clinton-era head of FEMA) * Richard Clarke For the State Department, all of them are some variation of bad jokes: John Kerry, Chuck Hagel, Richard Holbrooke, Sam Nunn,...

Stephen Fuller/George Mason University: are you sure you're a professor of public policy? - 4/25/2008

... update.] Stephen Fuller/Stephen S. Fuller of George Mason University - supposedly a professor of public policy - is featured on the latest video from 9500 Liberty. On the video (called "IMMIGRATION Crackdown HURTS Our Economy", link) he discusses the dire consequences of Prince William County in northern Virginia trying to do something about illegal immigration in their county. Oddly en...

Steve Grove/Youtube still promoting 9500 Liberty's pro-illegal immigration propaganda - 4/25/2008

... professor of Public Policy at George Mason University, Stephen Fuller. Like their other efforts, the video is being promoted by Youtube for an unknown reason. I'm going to assume that they haven't paid Youtube for the promotion and the latter company is doing it for free for one reason or other, possibly even related to their corporate goals of increasing skilled immigration (Laszlo Boc...

Is Bryan Caplan the world's looniest libertarian? (give every Haitian a green card) - 4/19/2008

... "economist" Bryan Caplan of George Mason University to offer the self-evidently ludicrous "The Quick Fix: For the Love of God, Give Every Haitian a Green Card" (link). His grand plan helps show just how insane the libertarian support for open borders is: Well, I've got a quick fix. Give every Haitian a green card. Invite the world's most precious resource - human lab...

Jean Pfaelzer is what's scary about the immigration debate - 7/16/2007

... Farmers Branch. Shouldn't George Mason University's History News Network consider its credibility and at least verify a few of the things they publish? Please send them an email and suggest they print a retraction of the various lies and mischaracterizations in her article: editor *at* historynewsnetwork.org [1] hnn.us/articles/40316.html

Bryan Caplan/George Mason University: a true "economist" and "intellectual" - 6/21/2007

... Associate Professor of Economics at George Mason University. His "thinking abilities" as well as his "economic" skills are on full display in the Economist guest post "Immigration Restrictions: A Solution in Search of a Problem". Let's take a look at this public "intellectual": Every blogger I know tells me the same story: The fastest way to provoke an...

Why Donald J. Boudreaux, George Mason University, is a fool - 6/13/2007

... of the economics department at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va.") offer the hilariously sad (literally) open borders screed "Why restrict immigration at all?/The Constitution and the laws of economics compel us to welcome all immigrants." (link) While it would be possible to demolish every point they try to make, let's just take a look at the last section, which is call...

Letter: last 100 conservatives who support Senate amnesty bill must band together! - 6/05/2007

... chairman, Economics Department, George Mason University. You can see an example of the latter's thinking abilities on display in this post. The first was a signatory to the similarly childlike Open Letter on Immigration. As previously discussed, some of the first picking up the recent David Leonhardt smear of Lou Dobbs were similar "economists", although not those two. Another is R...

ICBTS: Independent Institute's Open Letter on Immigration - 6/20/2006

"I Can't Believe They're Scholars": the Independent Institute has managed to get 500 people - many with PhDs - to sign on to their incredibly lame-brained Open Letter on Immigration. At least four of the signatories have blogs that accept comments, and if anyone has time please monitor their coverage and discredit them by leaving comments at their site whenever they discuss imm...

The "Open Letter on Immigration": a quick response - 5/17/2006

This site is circulating an "Open Letter on Immigration": In cooperation with the Independent Institute I am looking for as many signatures as possible from economists and other social scientists. Brad DeLong, Greg Mankiw, Vernon Smith, Tyler Cowen and many others from both the left and the right have already signed on. It's certainly an interesting letter, but it has little releva...

"Liberals" get "liberalism" fed back to them by the shovelful - 2/18/2005

... indoctrination as part of a class from George Mason University. The center is partially paid for by taxpayers, and partially by unnamed foundations. Whether the Rockefeller Foundation is one of those benefactors is unknown. From August 2003: WETA chief executive officer Sharon Percy Rockefeller attended Tuesday night's board meeting, and was deeply critical of the final decision. "It w...

History's erasers - 1/27/2005

... just a web site spun off from George Mason University. I left a comment suggesting that Dreier was just proposing this bill expecting it would fail but that it would show to his constituents that he was trying to do something. I also left a comment on this thread. However, both comments have now been deleted, but thankfully I saved a copy of the first: Dreier probably intends this to fail. From &...
