The son of a freeper-man writes again! The interesting point is that this was to a general public at Cornell. To the best of my (limited) knowledge neither the Cornell Review nor the College Republicans organized the questions. In a minute, I'll post the Cornell Sun's scathing report.

Good post, thanks.
The Review frequently discusses the liberal student body at Cornell, but I noticed an interesting phenomenon at the event. I said before that a group of adult academics showered praise on McKinney. I did not see a single undergraduate do so. A close liberal friend of mine was in the audience; when I asked his opinion afterwards, he replied, Liberal or conservative, stupid is stupid.

Nice post. I like that line, "Liberal or conservative, stupid is stupid."

I thought the term "libiot" new and interesting, myself.

Nice letter, and true, but many Democrats such as Terry McAuliffe, McDermot, Landrieu, and Sheila Jackson Lee are just as intellectually dishonest, ignorant, and mentally challenged as is the under-educated McKinney at Cornell, though McKinney is in good company among her fellow Ivy League educators.

How long before our gentle author is tarred & feathered as a racist?
That's all I want to know.

Great stuff. Some people didn't let the color of her neck blind them to the lack of content in her, ahem, mind.

Our #1 son is a first year Cornell Law student. He comes in late tonight or early tomorrow for Christmas break. I'll have to ask him if he attended or heard about this appearance.

How long before our gentle author is tarred & feathered as a racist? Even the usually liberal Cornell Sun took her to task, see http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1042545/posts
So, I don't think this article will do it. Though, since I've never known him to be called gentle, I'm crossing my fingers for the next year and a half.

Bravo Zulu Cornell. It doesn't matter to me if you are a liberal or conservative - so long as you are capable of thinking for yourself, use logic arguements to back your thesis, and stick with facts over absurd platitudes.
Cynthia McKinney is a good example of why affirmative action and outcome based education should be scorned. She is incapable of making even the most basic arguments. Her constituents were ill-served.

When McKinney said the Black Caucus was responsible for the political change in Haiti, what she meant was...Bill Clinton came to them and asked what it would take for them to defend and cover for him in the Whitewater hearings. Their answer: re-install Aristide to power in Haiti. And so he did. Preemptively, unilaterally and without the blessing of the UN. General Cedeos out...de-frocked Marxist "priest" in.

Frankly, I'm not sure how many ways the words "the genocide in Iraq was caused by US sanctions" can be interpreted. Perhaps, though, if she wants to avoid further confusion, she could do her audience the favor of spelling out her responses in the same charming manner as her father."It be da J-E-W-S, I tells ya! Da JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS -- !" :)
