Victory?

Comments

I run across a post today name “Victory for Academic Freedom ” on a blog with the obliging name “Atlas Shrugs ”. After describing the control of the extreme left on American campuses and the unbalanced number of left wing professors in the academia the author announced the good news:

Today, I’m pleased to report that Congress went on record to support legislation containing the Academic Bill of Rights, which will help level the ideological playing field and take the personal politics of liberal professors out of the classroom.

And later she concludes:

Majority Leader Boehner wrote a must-read editorial on the importance of the Academic Bill of Rights which gives the history of the legislation and lays out a strong case for why we need it NOW.

Another very good thing. Very good undeedy.

Now I’m very confuse, how is government legislation limiting someone’s ability to talk is a good thing? Where did you find in Atlas Shrugs that government doing anything beyond securing human rights is a “Victory”?  

Well objectivism it definitely isn’t
