That's my point -- why would an official MIT website link to a page
with the stuff I pointed out? For the sake of brevity, I didn't point
out that the page in question has a link for "Boston Critical Mass" --
a pro-_bicycle_ civil disobedience group?!

Again, exactly the point. I don't see the MIT front page link to any
anti-tax pages on April 15th. If MIT wants to be apolitical, it should
do so consistently; I don't like my tuition money being spend on
leftist nonsense without getting equal play.

And you don't when Aimee Smith sends messages about every leftist
rally, sit-in and protest?
