What in the world would anyone want to hear from McCain?

Interesting how former representatives and sentors from small states rarely return to their states after they retire from Congress.

speaker that is hostile to the gay community speak on a day of celebration at an institution with a vibrant gay community.

Censor anyone who doesn't obey the homosexual? That's their idea of "free" speech?
(This is a college that would be close to Stalins heart.)

I think all tax payer funding should be pulled from these intolerant colleges. Unless you willfully accept all sin and degradation, you're prohibited from entering Lucifer's "educational" domain.

But hundreds of students, staff and faculty members at the institution of about 9,000 students have signed paper and online petitions that seek to revoke the invitation.

McCain should be proud of this. It could get him millions of new voters in 2008.
Heterosexual pride is a good thing. It's very pro-American.

Homosexuals walking around with bacteria and viruses eating them alive is not what I'd refer to as "gay" and "vibrant."
Those liberals sure do like to play around with pretty words, don't they?

Isn't it comforting that all these students don't want to hear any opinion, whatsoever, that does not validate their own? The New College is breeding the New World, one which will make many people yearn for the Old World.

You can't plot him on a nice sane liberal - conservative number line. You need imaginary numbers to express where he's at.

No matter how much a Republican wants to be seen as "moderate", libs will always see a Republican as a "right wing extremist".

Now they can call him a "controversial maverick" :-)

Two logical fallacies at the base of this article:

1. John McCain is a conservative
2. Ultra-liberal actually would listen to a conservative viewpoint in any case.

Other than that I give the author high marks for grammar and spelling.

Seems to be the fad with the media these days.

Could it be the media's trying to make its favorite Republican palatable to the GOP base, in time for '08?

I never saw him called conservative in 2000.
