It is well known that Ronald Reagan's favorite place to stock his adminstration came from Stanford University's Hoover Institute. In fact, Reagan's guru, Milton Friedman, was a long time teacher at the school.
So, I was a bit amused when the "shoot anything" Republican Party of Wisconsin attacked former Senator Feingold for teaching at "elite" Stanford.
Yes, so "elite" that it was Reagan's favorite university.
The same Reagan that also elevated Wisconsin native William Rehnquist to Chief Justice of the Supreme Court as well as two other Supreme Court justices that were all Stanford grads. The same Reagan that would leave such an impression on U.S. Senator Ron Johnson that he would name his new puppy after him. (see picture)
And you know who else went to Stanford? Wisconsin's favorite GOP Congressman, Jim Sensenbrenner.
