This is a very interesting read, via Instapundit.
I think a similar thing is happening in Canada-not necessary through financial support from foundations but rather through the very biased self-selection and peer sucking up that happens at law schools in Canada.
There are very few conservative law professors in Canada, and the committees that select the students are rarely 'diverse'. There is no ideological diversity.
These non-diverse, liberal leftist bureaucracies select liberal students and fill their heads with liberal curricula and a smattering of law. Then those lawyers go on to be judges and use their position to transform society, or to litigate social change and force a progressive agenda on the unsuspecting masses.
