   Liberal Democrats, too lazy and stupid to compete   
   scholastically. This is the result of the present day inferior   
   California school system, once the envy of the entire free   
   world, after 40 years of Democrat control and parasitic   
   socialist union infestation.

   The slew of criminal charges in the sweeping college cheating   
   scam originated from an unrelated federal case in the Boston   
   area — and a financial executive desperate for mercy, according   
   to a new report.   
      
   The feds were tipped off to what would be the biggest college   
   admissions scheme ever prosecuted thanks to the businessman, who   
   was under investigation in a securities fraud case, the Wall   
   Street Journal reported Wednesday.   
      
   In a bid for leniency, he told investigators that Rudolph “Rudy”   
   Meredith, the head women’s soccer coach at Yale, solicited   
   bribes from him in exchange for recommending his daughter for   
   admission as an athletic recruit, a source told the Journal.   
      
   The probe turned to Meredith — then widened to nearly 50 others   
   as the feds learned the scam involved wealthy parents, other   
   college athletic coaches, and crooked SAT and ACT test proctors.   
      
   At the heart of the scheme was William “Rick” Singer, a college   
   prep expert whose business in California was aimed at getting   
   kids into some of the nation’s top schools.   
      
   On Tuesday, Singer pleaded guilty to charges that he accepted   
   more than $25 million in bribes to help students cheat on their   
   college entrance exams or gain acceptance to schools as athletes   
   — even when they didn’t play sports.   
      
   Thirty-three parents are among those charged, including TV   
   actresses Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman.
