This is just incredible...and pathetic too.
These sniveling UW student punks seem to be making Greg Boyington into some sort of war criminal!
Damn them all...
A college education means absolutely nothing nowadays.
This is what you get when you let America hating communists take over academia. It will take a generation to drive them out.
"On October 17, 1943, Pappy led a force of 24 Marine fighters over the Japanese fighter base at Kahili, on the island of Bougainville. They circled the base repeatedly, daring the 60 Japanese fighters on the field to come up. When the Japanese responded, Pappy's boys shot down 20 of them before scooting back to base without losing a plane."
Can you imagine the mood they would have been in back at base?
These Boyington threads make my blood boil.....I just want to go in to that University and rip all of those bitches and bastards several new ones......
Better yet, a squadron of restored Corsairs fully loaded to bomb and strafe them into oblivion....what sniveling snotnosed asswad PUNKS!
Great column.
And, disgusting as this senate meeting was, in some ways you can't blame the students. They are pathetically ignorant. They have been educated to think this way all their lives, and they probably haven't the foggiest notion what the war was about. It's doubtful that they've been taught anything much about it or anything else in history--world history OR American history.
It's a marvel that so many kids manage to figure out that their teachers are miseducating them, and come out the other end of this sorry process with some sanity and common sense.

From watching war stories on TV with Col. North, I know that Pappy Boyington was also a bit of a hellraiser. He was also proud as hell of what he did. I suspect he considers it a privelige to NOT BE HONORED by such a sissy and prissy establishment as the University of Wussington!
What fools! Our only hope is they don`t breed.
This is not the result of Communism in America.
It is far more sinister and subversive than that.
These pukefaced morons quibbling over whether or not it is worthwhile to honor the memory of a brave man who killed the enemies of his country are the product of a long gradual degeneration in American values.
This degeneration has been accelerated by pious pacifistic religious sects - almost all of them mainstream Christian and Jewish, a media elite which has lost all touch with reality, Hollywood actors and actresses who wouldn't know reality if it looked them in the face, and an educational establishment populated by the traitors of the anti-Viet Nam War era who should have been before firing squads or dangling from nooses as traitors back in the 1960s instead of getting "liberal" educations by their collegate forbearers.
Its the result of an insane drive agaist guns, patriotism, western values and virile behavior - all of which this genuine hero so well represented.
She further wonders whether "a member of the Marine Corps was an example of the sort of person UW wanted to produce."
Another distinguished Senator, Ashley Miller, "commented that many monuments at UW already commemorate rich white men."
Student Senator Karl Smith casts some oil on the troubled waters by suggesting that the resolution honoring Boyington be stripped of any mention of "destroying 26 enemy aircraft." Perhaps, in this way, Colonel Boyington's "service" could be acknowledged, but "not his killing of others."
This is modern feminism - immaculate society until you abolish all signs of what they believe is the evil patriarchy that has oppressed women and minorities for years.
These people are not just in colleges, they have infiltrated many state legislatures, and these sentiments are expressed in private, that is until they see the light of day, where they quickly shown to be absurd under scrutiny.
In Maine a few years ago some feminist legislators made public noises that were derogatory about the US Troops. After enduring a firestorm of criticism from members of Maine large military constituency the girls learned to to discuss their true feelings about these issues in public.
But that sentiment is alive and well, believe me. Folks who do not think that feminism is one of the major threats to our country aren't paying attention.
The intellectual sluggards fail to recognize that Boyington did not start out in life either rich or white. He was part-Sioux and supplemented his mother's financial support. Further, he was involved completely in the college experience and graduated in four years. Let's see if any of those "senators" can stand up to that measuring stick.
bttt
Talk about yer young skulls full of mush! Disrespectful in such a breathtakingly stupid way. Idiots with no concept of the wars fought, the men killed and injured, to preserve their freedom to be SPOILED LITTLE JERKS!

From this title I thought the article was about Ted Kennedy.
