    Conservatives Strike Back Against ‘Ideological Tidal Wave’ in School District0

    It’s widely believed that there is a strong liberal bias in America’s public school system.

    Conservative vs. Liberal Logic: A Comparison0

    If you read the news or follow politics, you hear a lot of arguments and all of them sound different. But in reality, there are only two basic ways to argue. We could call these two kinds of argument “Arguing Forward” and “Arguing Backward.” Arguing Forward is principled in nature.
