Another ridiculous politically-correct brouhaha has broken out at Dartmouth College, America’s most hopelessly and disturbingly fragile Ivy League school.

I think the city of San Antonio Texas might have a disagreement with Dartmouth. In that every April there’s a very large event named fiesta.

I’ve never thought free speech applied to people with whom liberals disagree.

Even a Southwestern Anglo can’t use the word “fiesta”, or organize one?
Can non-Irish celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?
Can non-Greeks and non-Orthodox attend a Greek festival?
Can non-Serbs and non-Orthodox attend a Serbian festival?
Can non-Slavs and non-Orthodox attend a Russian Orthodox Church festival?

PHOOEY!!!!
