It's not permissible to express the opinion that she was stupid for protecting terrorists.

Why would anyone in America have the right to express that, especially at a public university?

Where's the cartoon? It's got to hit home, and be funny as heck.

Liberals can't stand ridicule, because it defeats them. That's why Rush and Reagan were (are) so hated by the socialists.

"Mote feels exactly like I do," Wylie said. "We're embarrassed. The Diamondback embarrassed the university. People across the world think the University of Maryland is supporting this. [The Diamondback has] damaged me by publishing something as distasteful as this.

Pardon my ignorance, but exactly HOW was she damaged by this publication? Did the cartoon make her go blind? Or did it make her laugh against her will and cause guilt?

I heard a blurb on the radio this morning about some peace group observing a minute of silence for Rachel Corrie. I visualized people closing their eyes for 2-3 seconds, then bursting out laughing.

Sort of like when Mary Tyler Moore attended the funeral of Peanut, the clown who was dressed like a peanut and got trampled by an elephant. She tried her best to keep the laughter in, but lost.

It calls terrorists "terrorists," even when they're Arabs.

Hear, hear! Some people should simply be lobotomized and sterilized and put out to pasture to graze. This is consistent with the bovine glazed looks on their faces.

It was not politically correct. Had it collectively portrayed southerners as Klansmen, Catholics as child molesters, or pro-lifers as serial killers, it would have been OK and recieved 1st Amendment support lectures from the university staff.
