'Pappy' Shot Down by Campus Ignoramuses
It's well known that college students today aren't as educated in our nation's history as they should be, but it's still hard to grasp the mind-bending political correctness just displayed by the University of Washington's student senate at its campus in Seattle.
The issue before the Senate this month was a proposed memorial to World War II combat pilot Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, a 1933 engineering graduate of the university, who was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his service commanding the famed "Black Sheep" squadron in the Pacific. The student senate rejected the memorial because "a Marine" is not "an example of the sort of person UW wants to produce."
Digging themselves in deeper, the student opponents of the memorial indicated: "We don't need to honor any more rich white males." Other opponents compared Boyington's actions during World War II with murder.
"I am absolutely bewildered that the Student Senate voted down the resolution," Brent Ludeman, the president of the UW College Republicans, told me. He noted that despite the deficiencies of the UW History Department, the complete ignorance of Boyington's history and reputation by the student body was hard to fathom. After all, "Black Sheep Squadron," a 1970s television show portraying Colonel Boyington's heroism as a pilot and Japanese prisoner of war, still airs frequently on the History Channel. Apparently, though, it's an unusual UW student who'd be willing to learn any U.S. history even if it's spoonfed to him by TV.
As for the sin of honoring a rich white male, Mr. Ludeman points out that Boyington (who died in 1988) was neither rich nor white. He happened to be a Sioux Indian, who wound up raising his three children as a single parent. "Colonel Boyington is luckily not around to see how ignorant students at his alma mater can be today," says Kirby Wilbur, a morning talk show host at Seattle's KVI Radio. Perhaps the trustees and alumni of the school will now help educate them.

Why not just give away the Panama Canal?
Oh, sorry..............
Since a Red Chinese company runs the canal, why not have the UAE run our ports?
People will soon look back at the remains of the United States of America and compare us to Nero, fiddling while Rome burns.
Ports Deal Prompts Lawsuit

WASHINGTON -- A Miami company is suing to stop an Arab firm from taking over shipping operations at the Port of Miami.
It's the first American courtroom effort to block a $6.8 billion deal between a British company and a state-owned firm in the United Arab Emirates.
The sale is already embroiled in a national debate over security risks at the six major U.S. ports affected.
The Miami company is presently a business partner with London-based Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, which Dubai Ports World purchased last week.
Continental Stevedoring and Terminals said that under the sale it will become an "involuntary partner" with Dubai's government.
Continental said the sale is prohibited under its partnership agreement with the British firm and "may endanger the national security of the United States."

Gotta go. See y'all later.
How about on Friday nights when he is on the Factor?
Don't forget the congresscritters disclaiming they had no control/no knowledge.
That would be a good one, too! Is he on there consistently?
Cuss Jar please.
The Brits own the Company that is doing it now (or doing part of it) and the UAE company is buying it from them.
I didn't hear it when did Timmy ask David when he is going to resign???
Could little Timmy Russert be more out-of-touch? He is just dying a horrible death.
WARNING! WARNING!
Put me on the list, too!
Damn fools.
This lady needs to calm down.
