More on the flap over "Gender" Differences

Emmett Tyrrell has a good column and in this he details some of the other controversial topics Harvard President Summers has raised. But Mr. Tyrrell's conclusion struck me with its truthfulness and certainty with which I do agree:

That progressives rarely hear ideas displeasing to them I think explains their present dazed condition regarding the drift of American society. It also explains their anger. What is to be their fate? Allow me a suggestion, unwelcome though it may be. They are going to go to their graves dazed and angry and thinking they are right. They are going to cause a great deal of unpleasantness but they are going to disappear. The First Amendment will outlast them all. They have seen their last ascendancy.
