Jill Edwards is not at fault here, she is merely the product of an education system that is destroying America

I agree that the American education system has moved outside the bounds of it's purpose but, absolving people of their stupidity or mistakes because of their "environment" is too leftist a concept for me to stomach.

If she wants to stand as a leader of people, then it's her responsibility to educate herself on the issues she's going to support or oppose.  A failure to do so doesn't excuse her beliefs but compounds her fallacy of thought.  

And there's no better place to learn that she's completely ignorant than in college:  she needs to take her intellectual thumps now, before she gets out in the real world thinking she's competent to lead in business or in politics the way she "led" in the Student Senate at UW.

I mean, if this twit were to graduate tomorrow, would you want to work for her?  Would you want her in your State Senate?

Sent an e-mail saying, "You are not worthy to shine the boots of Pappy Boyington...."

She'll need a lifetime of deprogramming to move beyond the Hate America First indoctrination she's been fed.

a U.S. Marine is not the example of the sort of person that the University of Washington wants to produce.

Just in case you missed that part folks.

Both these 2 trollops need a lesson in history. If you figure that the first girl opposes a statue to Pappy based on her feelings for the present war, she needs to be reminded how WWII started, both here and in Europe. She needs to be taught the autrocities that were committed by both the Germans and Japanese. That if not for men like Colonel Boington, we'd all probably be speaking German right now. That is those of us who would be alive, after the Germans eliminated those who didin't fit their agenda. Right now we'd all be fearing something more than Sodamn Insane or Bin Laden. Men like Pappy saved this entire world from oppression, not just the United States. If a man like that doesn't deserve a statue who does?

As far as the other tart is concerned, she needs to be reminded that it was the hard work and generosity of rich, white men that built that school she's sitting in, allowing her the opportunity to move beyond working at McDonalds flipping burgers. And judging by her name, its because of the hard work and generosity of another rich, white man that allows her that same opportunity to sit in those classrooms, her Father

I happen to have known "Pappy". I met him in San Diego in '87 and shook his hand at a banquet. Being a Pilot myself, he immediately took an interest in me.

Pap' was like that. He loved to connect with people. He warned most everyone he met that Alcoholism is the bane of our society and if it weren't for Aviation, he never would have survived as long as he did.

He did not have a fixation with being rich or famous, he simply carried his message about living life sober and helping out your fellow man without expecting self-serving acclaim.

To be sure, Pappy would have been honored to have a remembrancer placed at the school, honoring him, from which he was first introduced to Aviation. He would have had only one requirement in doing so; He would have required that on the epitaph, there would be a simple bit of advice, that we live our lives clean & sober, one day at a time. Most of all, that we would savor each moment of the time God has given us in a strong measure of grace and humility.

She is another American who thinks this country is a gift.

Sorry but you are wrong here. A gift is something that is given to you that you have not earned. People like this feel that they deserve and are owed all the blessings of this country. They dishonor all the men and women who made all these very blessings possible.

Jill-o is just a little nobody trying to be important by being so very ,very childish. Like a dumb sheep of the left she see's nothing but evil in those who did, and are, trying to save her sorry butt.

They would sooner put up a memorial to Lenin or Stalin than to put one up for "Pappy".

The irony is, they refuse to honor a man like Boyington because he faught and killed people. Boyington faught in response to aggression, Lenin and Stalin both started aggressions. Boyington and his men killed dozens maybe even a hundred, once again in response to aggression. How many millions died because of the war that Lenin led? How many people starved to death. How many millions of his own people did Stalin hunt down and murder. It was more than was killed in all WWII including Hitlers final solution.

If you read the "Gulag Archipelago", the author gives the Soviets credit for murdering 66 million Soviet people from the time of the Bolshevik Revolution until about 1970. This is from the causes you mention including starvation.

That's a lot of people!

The University of Washington is not worthy of a monument to this man.

Bump.

Why do we let the 10 percent of the population who are leftists run our public universities? The university represents the entire State, and the population of that State which pays for the university. If the leftists are upset about the statue, they can erect a little statue of Che Guevara.
