Columbia U. students organize: Ahmadinejad is not welcome here; Update: Hitler-friendly and proud of it!
Update 7:50pm Eastern 9/22. Video: Yes, says Columbia official John Coatsworth, we’d invite Hitler. Because, of course, as I linked to yesterday, they already did.
Transcript of Dean John Coatsworth’s comments on Fox News:
If Hitler were at uh, the League of Nations or some meeting in NY–the League of Nations wasn’t there–um, if Hitler were in the United States and wanted a platform from which to speak, he would have plenty of platforms from which to speak in the United States. If he were willing to engage in a debate and a discussion, to be challenged by Columbia students and faculty, um, we would certainly invite him.
Reason number 9,991 not to send your kid to Columbia University.
Update 1:23pm Eastern 9/22. Bill Kristol calls for a boycott.
Update 9:45pm Eastern. Columbia U. alum Matt Sanchez sends along the security notice e-mailed to Columbia students regarding protection plans for Ahmadinejad…
Dear members of the Columbia community:
On Monday, September 24th, the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is scheduled to appear as a speaker on our Morningside campus.

***
As I mentioned yesterday, Columbia students on Facebook have been busy organizing a protest of the Iranian nutjob’s visit on Monday.
Here are some details:
WHEN: Monday, September 24, 1:00-3:00
WHERE:
COLUMBIA STUDENTS (w/ Columbia ID’s): On campus, outside Lerner Hall
NON-COLUMBIA STUDENTS: The Columbia Gates. 116th and Broadway - we have secured a permit to stage a protest there.
WHO: YOU and your friends, along with Hillel, Hasbara, StandWithUs, Amcha, ZOA, The David Project, Columbia student groups, concerned citizens. Expected attendance is in the thousands.
WHY: Remember - the world is watching. This is a monumental opportunity to make our voices heard. Generations will ask us, What did we do to protest? Where were we?
NEED A RIDE?
Hasbara Fellowships will be organizing busses from various campuses and points around the city. They are planning to provide busses from: NYU, Rutgers, Baruch, Queens, Hofstra, Brooklyn, and from the earlier rally in front of the UN. YU and Stern students probably have their own busses, ask around. We also need people to step up and be campus leaders to organize the bussing and rallying. Please be in touch. More details will be forthcoming.
The Columbia organizers link to this video as a reminder:
And the organizers link to signs here. A few samples:
The campus paper, the Columbia Spectator, reports:
Nearly 50 student leaders and a dozen administrators sat down with University President Lee Bollinger for an hour on Thursday for a passionate yet civil discussion to air concerns about Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s scheduled speech on campus on Monday.
When asked by Bollinger, student leaders overwhelmingly agreed that the event was in line with the academic purpose of the University, but several students expressed their disappointment in Bollinger’s handling of the invitation, with many airing concerns about student participation. Meanwhile, students began to solidify plans for a rally on Low Plaza this Monday.
Students’ concerns with the event included the logistics of establishing a rally on campus and the worry that lending Ahmadinejad a podium from which to speak would elevate and legitimize his views. Those in attendance expressed their greatest concerns regarding how students would be involved in the event itself.
“A girl came up to me after [a College Democrats meeting last night]—she was an Iranian student, an Iranian refugee, and she was near tears. She said, ‘I came to Columbia just for this moment, and I can’t believe the event is closed off before I can even register for it,’” Josh Lipsky, CC ’08 and president of the Columbia University College Democrats, said, while expressing his disappointment that only the most well-connected of students had been able to snatch up seats. He called on those in the room to give their seats to underclassmen.
Administrators said that 80 percent of all seats had been reserved for students. For those without a spot, the event will be available via Webcast.
Meanwhile, idiocy abounds. Here’s reason number 9,871 not to send your kid to Columbia:
Christien Tompkins, CC ’08, co-chair of the United Students of Color Council and member of Students Promoting Empowerment and Knowledge, compared the invitation of Ahmadinejad to that of Jim Gilchrist and said he was “disappointed” in Bollinger’s leadership for going out of his way to denounce the Iranian head of state and but not the “racist” founder of the Minutemen Project.
Because, like, opposing illegal immigration is just as bad as calling for the annihilation of Israel, pursuing nuclear revenge, and funding terrorism against American civilians and soldiers.
Live by moral equivalence, die by moral equivalence.

There are some bright spots in that dimly lit university! M6-3 will be praying for the students to succeed! M6-3 will also be in the john – just in case.
No good can come from this except to legitimize the terrorist who is KILLING Americans every day.
THIS IS TREASON!!!
Bollinger should be fired and sent to Iran to live with his buddy.
Brains full of mush and liberal professors who feed them.
Oh yes. There is a direct comparison between stopping massive illegal immigration, and being President of the Persian Nuclear Auschwitz II. No difference between the two at all!
I wonder, what are the immigration laws in Lebanon? Do they prohibit foreign powers from raising a terrorist army, arming, funding, training, and commanding that army for the usurpation of a democratically elected parliament, and starting a war with a neighboring nation, and stationing that army in civilian areas to invite collateral damage for propaganda purposes without consent of the parliament? Involuntary martyrdom! Just like the minutemen!
Wheres jrl? We need parody lyrics from ‘rock the casbah’ to ‘rock the limo, rock the limo’ I wonder how that little “crapweasel would look upside down in his limosine? Dont let them pass! m6-6 says rock-on students!
If every student in attendance wore pink, stood up one by one each minute, and hysterically screamed their age, would they be tased?
I am beaming w/pride over the students who are willing to protect their University from being invaded by that filthy terrorist…
My thought for the day, spread on various message boards:
Tase Ahmadinejad!!!!!
What a glimmer of hope in an otherwise dark scenario!
AJ - I tried my hand at it - but man, that’s a long song and has some goofy lyrics… and I don’t have the time to do it justice…lol.
( By the way - what # M6 am I? lol )
Good for them.
It’s about time we took back our colleges and universities and turned them into places where rational thought, reasoned discourse, and civil debate are prized more than liberalism and political correctness.
But in the end, if we lose this struggle, even the collaborators will be beheaded.
Looks like soap likes m6-3
I’ll take m6-6
take you’re pick! lol
I’d take m6-1 but i have an itchy trigger finger.
I know this comment isn’t about Columbia - it’s about the proposed WTC visit…but I just had to say…
I heard part of his conversation on the upcoming 60 minutes piece this Sunday where he talked about why he wanted to visit Ground Zero…
He stated ( through a translator ) that when going there, you pay your respects, and you discuss the root causes of why things like that occur.
Now, to me, it seems as if that’s a cue that, given his history, he planned to talk about all the typical “Western Imperialism, America’s desire to dominate and dictate around the world” bullcrap, as that is what many Muslim radicals believe is the reason behind 9-11….
Is THAT what we really want talked about on that site - or, for that matter, on an American University Campus?
Aj - I’d be happy with M6-1, if no one objects… ( Actually, I’m M 5′11″, but let’s not nitpick ) HAH!
I’m glad some students are speaking out against this.
But, this is the same institution which published this “exposé”, in which a Barnard College senior poli-sci major DIDN’T know that the US Naval Academy is connected to the US military…
aj, just check the listing of the order you named us. That should work…
I’ll take whatever number…
I too have an itchy trigger finger, but I hit what I fire at, so it’s all good.
Can I have M 6-0?? LOL
Ladybug, that article just astonishes me.
I assure you all, “Boy they must be smart” is NOT the first thing that comes to mind when I find out someone has graduated from Columbia…
As someone that is old enough to have lived through the hostage crisis with Iran and watched Ahmadinejad lead the kidnapping and torture of Americans with impunity….Yes we have photos of him holding an AK47 to the head of our diplomats.
Why have we not arrested this murderous sum bag as soon as he landed on American soil?
This really pisses me off.
Our Government is becoming a bunch of wimps and worship at the alter of political correctness.
It was bad enough that the commie loving Jimmy Carter did nothing but it is outrageous that George W Bush has not got the balls to have this murderer arrested as soon as he landed.
Joseph Farah wrote about this today over at Worldnetdaily. I urged you all to read it.
One has to wonder what Alexander Hamilton would think of his beloved Alma Mater. I am glad to see that there is a few students who will stand up to this garbage. As others have said, I can’t believe these are supposed to be our brightest students at these Ivy League schools. They may be book smart but they have little if any common sense.
Ladybug, that article was enlightening.
swj~
Ditto, here. And have you read any of the comments? I first heard about this from the milblogs (don’t recall which one I saw first). At that time, it had nearly 200 comments. I think when I went to get the link today, it was over 500… Most every one I took the time to read was very critical of the author in some way, shape or form…
An EXCELLENT point.
I admit that having been born in ‘78, I lived through this too, but only technically…
Maybe we should get a student attending the “symposium” to give up their spot for one of the former hostages. I’d love to see that…
What a photo op THAT would be.
Kind of like that 19-year old MIT student who wore a fake bomb to Logan Int’l today. I’ve known since 9th grade (when a “really smart” classmate in phys. science took a wire, bent it and placed the ends into the outlet on the lab tables - I missed seeing the bolt that was emitted…) that just because you’re book-smart doesn’t mean you have one whit of common sense…
Ladybug, the one I feel sorry for is the gal’s brother, the one AT the acadamy. You know his pleeb year is gonna be pure unending hell because of her article.
If I were him, I’m not sure I’d ever talk to her again…
swj719AWG, I was thinking the same thing. This poor kid is going to have it even rougher because of Idris’ article that she is oh so proud of. A friend of mine from high school has a son who is in his third year at USNA. I sent the article to her and she emailed me back that it’s the talk of the parents group that she keeps in regular touch with.
It is sad that he’s going to catch hell for her stupidity.
Little Green Footballs is reporting that Ach Ma Puke Head is going to give a speech and answer questions via a video link for the National Press Club.
Is it me or is this country going to Hell in a handbasket? This is madness.
ban Puke Head and kick out the UN.
The Columbia students represent another trim tab opportunity to end Islamic Fascist control of the Middle East and the cells and communities inside our borders.
By contrast, here is the fruit of our centuries old struggle to fight for liberty, in my own world.
Busy morning here in Bear Country. We are taking our publishing business to the next level. New technology. New opportunities. I don’t have to clear my activities with some religious council of superstitious illiterates who pass themselves off as learned men. I don’t have to pay tribute or patronage to them. I am free to make life/business changing decisions as I see fit. And be rewarded materially, mentally, and spiritually for doing my best.
Liberty.
My wife flew out last nite to be with her GrandFather Samuel to celebrate his 95th birthday on Saturday (Yom Kippur). Jewish life- has enriched mine beyond measure. With everything her family suffered going back to 15th century in Eurasia, through the First and Second World Wars, into the Holy Land, and in Old New York- not once did she ever hear one of her relatives speak of vengeance against their enemies. Their revenge was to live well, to survive, and flourish. And flourish they have. Flourish, we have.
Pride in being Americans- with a past that strengthens our Nation.
My nine year old is coming home after a week with his 4th grade class at a special
camp where the group of about 150 learn about “conflict resolution”. Word came
back from a parent on the scene there, that he and two of his buddies organized a revolt against a clique which was “talking too much about Global Warming” and making a lot of rules they didn’t think were fair. They spent two days re-organizing the camp into a country “like George Washington’s”.
Youth- the hope of our Nation.
The Columbia students who will be protesting, who will be backed up with 100s of thousands of New Yorkers and other Americans going to the scene, are the answer to the many prayers offered from the good places in the hearts of MILLIONS.
I truly believe there is a connection between what General Petraeus and the Ambassador did in Washington last week and what is happening in New York leading up to NutJob’s visit. We must continue to stand for each other in everything we do- our work, our families, our children’s education. No matter the criticism or the MoveOn’s of the world.
We simply need to stand up in this house of mirrors where the righteous are distorted and the foul are elevated.
NutJob projects the image of Anti-Christ onto the United States. But it is he. He has been waging war against the US for nearly 30 years (with Jimmy Carter’s help).
And it is the youth of this Nation that will pierce his veil of illusion about who we are. To all of the Mothers and Fathers of these fine Americans- I send my strongest, deepest, admiration and respect for the work you did to bring them along to this point. Through all of those days back when they were tykes, and it seemed like they were going to be little forever, up til now when they are taking their place in the history of this Nation, you are to be saluted.
I salute you. I salute your children.
Life. Liberty. The pursuit of happiness. How does NutJob’s country measure up to those simple, clear, ideals?
Onward.
I remember the hostage crisis very well, turned voting age in 1976. Yeah baby! Why cant any of the hostages file charges against this scumbag, proof up the wazzoo, pick him up try him then fry him? Have one of the hostages at Columbia Univ. make a citizens arrest and go from there.????
Scotty,
Great post. I too am teribly disappointed in President Bush. I also remember the hostage taking by this Puke Head and to give him a forum on our soil is criminal, IMHO.
I saw an interview with one of the hostages held by Puke Head and he was never given an opportunity to speak at Columbia. He was highly offended by this clown’s visit.
I never imagined that this great country would ever stoop this low. I can only imagine how much lower we will go. God help us.
My God you’re old…
Well said, Bear.
I don’t know if the American people will sit back and endure this travesty.
It’s a gut feeling that this tryst will backfire on Ahmedinejad.
Obviously he is doing this to cover up something- because it is an extreme move.
The rocket accident in Syria is a smoking gun. It has all but been ignored by the MSM. But not by Israel of our war commanders.
The turnout against him in New York will make it near impossible for him to be lauded by anybody outside of Iran and the IslamoFascist circles of the world.
Their inspiration won’t stand up against the Hell that is coming to him and his band of circus animals.
This a psy-op of major proportions. It is not going to end well for the world, no matter what Bush does or does not do from here on.
The National Press Club and Columbia….was there ever any doubt with whom their loyalties lie?
Has anyone asked Hillary where she stands on this visit stunt? BH Obama? Hello?!?!?! Oprah? Aren’t you going to ask him to be on your show?
I’m trying to stay focused on the good because the cowardice at the top, across the board, is underwhelming.
tx katieanne.
Hey! easy there m6-4…
Actually, after your ‘born in 1978′ post I was gonna say the opposite about you!
Sorry grandpa… I’ll be good.
Shall I go get your walker now?
Or perhaps you would like me to chase those darn beighbor kids off your lawn?
Hey swj,
I’m older than AJ, how about grabbing me a beer out of fridge?
Older than AJ?
Woooooooooooooooooooooow…
*Sits at trinitytim’s feet* What were dinosaurs like?
*snickers, and runs off*
Bear, we need to talk, is it against the terms of use to give out my email address?
swj may have his m6-4 status removed for being insubordinate. lol
Well, gang - it’s been fun - I’m outta here for the day - got some travelin to do.
Keep up the good work, all…especially to the M6.
swj
Enjoy it while you can. Your day’s coming too. Can’t stop it.
Although, I’d like to stop Ack ma Puke Head if I could.
since swj is such a young pup - maybe we can call him M6 - 1/2 ?
Bwah-ha-ha-ha!
Be safe jrl
Dunno ’bout the terms, AJ, but it’s just my thinkin’ it wouldn’t be wise. Too many eyes.
I think you folks are being incredibly generous in assuming I live that long…
Not wise? Why would you say that?
I’m sure no one here would use it to subscribe him to porn mailing lists, and to bombard him with moronic e-mails and questions…
Well, no one besides me.
Hey swj, I’m already 7 years older than I ever thougt I’d be. Came pretty close to not making it this far on a couple of days. Anti-tank mine, High speed chase, triple bypass, the list goes on.
So, I repeat my advice. Enjoy it while you can. Well, everyone except Ach ma Puke Head.
aj- do you mean you want to be in contact with me?
the “we need to talk” part kinda threw me….sorry just heading over to get the second cuppa joe…yeeks it’s noon almost.
i have a plan aj-
I’m 51. My birthday is November 12th. Yes, I am a Scorpio.
Image: People running for the exits.
Yes, bear, e mail is fine, couple questions.
when you come down here , we can set up a coffee chit chat. there’s a *bucks in rancho mirage.
3 Rallies - ALL ON MONDAY:
GROUND ZERO - 9:30am-11:00am
12 NOON - U.N.
And the columbia rally listed here already…
Maybe they should sub-contract “dont taze me bro” for the rally at columbia. That boy knows how to throw a hissy fit.
Sadly, the thought occured to me that we CAN’T arrest him…
Diplomatic Immunity.
We can’t do anything, I don’t think, even if his evil acts were done decades ago.
swj,
Diplomatic Immunity wouldn’t apply here because his crimes were committed in Iran, not here in the US. However, I believe that the US would have to get either an indictment or a warrant charging kidnapping and the other felonies.
I don’t see that happening because our leaders don’t have the political will to arrest this idiot. So, don’t look for NYPD or the FBI to show up on Monday with handcuffs. However, they may use the taser on some of the protesters. Hope not.
Then I guess flippin his limo over will have to do.
Just send a bunch of Detroit fans there, tell them the tigers just won the world series and let them have at it.
What would Reagan do?
Oh that’s right…he strapped on his brass ones and freed the hostages literally minutes after stepping into office………..so what do we do??? Send the Marines into CU???
I’m not a marine, ex-Army, but I’ll go. I even have my own AK-47
lol trinity, my daughter could kick his sorry a** w/o a weapon.
aj,
You’re probably right but I always err on the side of caution. LOL
AJ’s daughter M6-6.5
Did anybody else notice Afterdinnerjacket’s coat looked like a straight jacket with the straps cut off?
Hey Bear - I would like to hear from you too via email. You can reach me at my link. Publishing questions.
And the reast of you who send emails, try and be original and not send me crap like “Hillary ‘08″ (although I do pray for you on the spot).
Yeah, sh*t splatters, and with a firearm you can hit if from far enough away, you won’t get any on you.
Dr. Jack Wheeler said something today in his newsletter (sorry, paid, no link)
that might have something to do with this gag NutJob is trying to pull off in NYC.
The Israeli bombing raid on September 6th required that Israeli jets fly nearly 3/4’s of the way across Syrian airspace to hit the target (which has yet to be clearly identified).
Syria recently purchased Russian-made anti-aircraft systems, equipment so new it hasn’t even been installed in Russia yet.
The equipment was rendered useless by Israeli and US technologies. Syria found out it is naked and exposed. So is Iran.
Syria has said NOTHING about this act of war by Israel. Iran has been rather mum too. Why? Interesting, no?
Wheeler said a top ranking Indian military attache returned from Iran this week and said to Wheeler’s sources that the Mullahs were asking when was the US and Israel going to strike and how bad will it be. Freaking out.
So what do you think NutJob’s motivations are for posing for the cameras? I wonder if he will even be allowed to go back to Iran.
These chumps are defenseless. Hit them soon and hit them hard. Do not let them get up.
Game over. Time to run the table and destroy that country. Then- set up the investment dream of a lifetime for the rest of the world in rebuilding Iran to its former glory. The people there want it.
And for the crowd that says “Democracy wont work there!” or “win without war”, I say “Watch and Learn”.
Hubris is a beotch, NutJob! And you’ve had 30 years of it. Eat this.
Aj- link huh wha? guide me
second cup of joe still hasn’t been secured….egad it’s 130PST
You know what bear, I think you’re onto something here. Makes total sense.
Where’s Boomer when we need him. Light the afterburners on the Eagles and fire up the Raptors too. Bring on the Warthogs and get Marcus Luttrell and his friends back off leave. Time to go.
OT-
Bear, I just sent soap my info via his link (click on his name), he has my permission to give you my e mail address. maybe we can talk via email a few minutes this weekend?
Dead on, Bear. Israel showed it can strike deep inside a country with excellent air-defense networks at any time they choose.
Syria, Lebanon, and Iran know this. That’s why the recent bluster from Iran over the 600 missle aimed all over the place. They are trying to set some sort of “mutually assure destruction” scene, and it won’t work.
You don’t think those missle sites won’t be the first thing the IDF hits?
Here’s another one.
I have heard exactly ZERO from Saudi Arabia over the syrian strike, or anything else.
My guess as to why: They know that if Iran and Syria have their way, they are next on the list. If Iraq falls, and Israel gets obliterated, the Saudies know that Iran would just LOVE their oil fields…
All things being equal, at least Saudi Arabia’s government isn’t directly funding attacks on our troops. Members of it might be (I wouldn’t be shocked, frankly), but at least it isn’t a freaking governmental mandate…
*claps for bear1909
Have a great weekend all!
M6-3 over and out!
SWJ-ya, i trust Dr. Wheeler’s connections around the world. He was one of the young Republicans who worked tirelessly to get Reagan elected. And his insights are very inspiring because he believes in the superiority of the US as a nation, and he grasps our place in history- warts and all.
the Saudi Royal family is so deeply divided against itself that its most perverted members are funding jihad- their own self-loathing is so high.
it seems to be a common element among Arabists, jihadists, et al- a deep sense of self-loathing over what might have been but never was.
great cultures, my whatever.
Bush has done a superb job in keeping this US economy between the ditches for the past 7 going on 8 years and definitely changing the stakes for these jihadmonkeys. There are alot more dead ones than there were 8 years ago….and now Iran is going to take a huge final bow in this saga…..the Dhimmicrats don’t stand a chance in 08.
All Iran has to do to ensure a republican victory in ‘08 is to attack, blatantly and openly, either Iraq, Israel, or get caught attacking us.
Any of those three, and we own the election.

What a great article! I love that man!!!
re: (myself) leepro #79
This is another great one (different author) from several days ago:
Australian PM Takes A Stand
i liked it too ScottyDawg
re: bear1909 #70
heheh
They can’t say anything about it. That would amount to admitting they had a nuclear installment there to begin with!
heheh-2
Here’s one for ya… Apparently Iran wants inspectors to go into Israel to confirm if it has nukes or not.
Honestly, considering the efficiency and skill of Mussad, I say “Let them in, Israel… The second they leave, bring them out of storage again. We won’t tell anyone…”
The world already knows Israel has nuclear capability. Did i dream this?
Well, it’s not officially known.
It’s one of those “We can neither confirm nor deny” sort of deals.
I mean, yeah, they have them, but it’s not like we have a count, or any real PROOF…
Odds are that the fact Israel even has nukes was an intentional leak from Moussad to deter Arab nations. You’re less likely to go all out on a place when they can kill you ALL in one shot.
Iran just wants them found for certain so it can justify it’s nuke-work.
A shame that rational, logical thought would suggest that if they have them, and haven’t used them, wouldn’t a real and true enemy GETTING the bomb be the trigger to using them?
Ah well.
C’mon, Bear. “Monkeys?”
Bad Bear. Bad, bad, bad.
Iran IS attacking us!!! Their maniacal leader will be entering via our college system on Monday to indoctrinate our youths with his propaganda…
swj -
Well,
all thesome news reports said that Israel had bombed a nuke facility in Syria. They make a big stink about it, they’re admitting it… right?IMHO, the most deadly snake is the one where you don’t hear the rattle. Ackmedwannabeworldleader is too vocal. He’s either got a handler pulling the strings or the entire ME really is alligned with him. If he could pull off the coup of having Israel forced to cop to either having nukes, or not having them - ME leaders would line up with him immediately. The silence is interesting. The region fights each other until they find a common enemy.
North Korea has a finger in this pie, but I doubt they decide what to eat for lunch that China doesn’t already know the menu.
Not talking about nukes in Israel. I’m talking about
Fox news is just reporting new sanctions against North Korea have just been approved by POTUS for exporting a number of deadly toy technologies. Hmmm. The plot thickens.
Ms. Malkin,
I am glad Armageddonijad was rebuked.
On a completely unrelated note, I want to wish your husband, and all the Jewish people who visit this site, a happy and peaceful Yom Kippur. For those fasting, may it be a safe and easy fast.
For those of you who are Jewish and reading this on the East Coast…you should be in Temple right now.
May it be a year of blessings, happiness and health for all, and a world without people like Armageddonijad.
God Bless,
eric

IMHO-, I think the welcome mat for Ahmadinejad is going to yanked out for his Columbia vist also.
Gotta hand it to them - when it needs doing, the Israelis don’t flinch.
AlohaGuy, so true. With Olmert twisting in the wind on every issue it had to be something really important (imminent threat) for Israel to even consider bombing it? Practice runs in the ME are seldom, if ever done….yes, kudos to the Israeli military.
Wishing all those celebrating Yom Kippur G-d’s richest blessings.
i guess i was taking license based on the months-if not years-old phrase “cheese eating French surrender monkeys”.
o exercised restraint by not comparing them to our porcine brothers from the animal kingdom.
You guys are insulting the Monkeys. Their music wasnt that bad.

Anybody have a SWAG as to how many police officers are going to be at Columbia U. next week? lol, what a zoo thats going to be. I hope they make him quiver, after tipping his limo of course. Will code pink be their throwing eggs? a mass die in for all he’s killed? loons walking around with signs saying he’s hitler? Iran haters? or are they going to serve this POS cookies?
i hope, like Glenn Beck does, that NutJob’s entire security detail is comprised of Jews. everywhere this numbskull turns he will be face to face with a Jew.
This would be a good scenario for the start of his motorcade.

Who are the only thing protecting him from a see of people who want to tear him limb from limb…
Oh the delicious irony…
So basically, if we get on of the Embassy Hostages to show up, he’ll have to hang out in someone’s room overnight on Sunday, and wait around campus all day Monday…
Seriously, we need to get one of those folks in there. I would pay serious money to see Ammie’s reaction to that confrontation.
Alan Colmes is soooo upset by the idea that if this jerk isn’t given “HIS RIGHT TO SPEAK”, that WE WON’T BE ABLE TO CHANGE HIS MIND about anything.
I’d love to stand Alan up in front of George Washinton, our First President, and let him tell THAT GW about FREEDOM OF SPEECH!
And let George Washington explain a few facts about RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY to Alan.
Colmes is delusional. “free speech” is a concept completely foreign to NutJob and everybody in his regime. Colmes is like the classic missionary figure who wants to bring the heretofore unknown religion to a group of heathens. “If they just get a taste, they’ll be converted.”
Liberals and Moon Loon Leftists can’t quite grock to the reality of NutJob and his kind beheading them, and torturing their families, and slaughtering their pets.
They will bleat ceaselessly about the oppression they suffer here in the States while their very articulation of their plight is proof they are not suffering at all. And that they live to tell the story of their complaint, now some 40 years after the end of the Viet Nam war is even more proof.
An entire generation of Americans, like Colmes, are going to unravel when this war with Syria, Iran, and all of the sleeper cells begins. It will be the end of their political reason for being.
All of this turbulent protest and crying out for adherence to the “living constitution” is the embodiment of what our Founding Fathers spoke of when they referred to the tyrrany of factions.
Hello all…8 hours fasting down, 16 to go. As for Colmes, I met Hannity last week at his Freedom Concert, and since Colmes is Jewish I asked Hannity (who could obviously tell I was Jewish) if he could explain the importance of Israel to Colmes. He said, “I give up, I’ve tried for 10 years, he’s hopeless.”
As for the Monkees, I would say to Armageddonijad, monkey that he is, that “I’m not your stepping stone.”
Although the best of those bands was “The Wonders,” singing “That thing you do.”

Oh the sweet, sweet irony …
Newsflash to Columbia University - you opened the taint gate the minute you invited that fascist to set foot on campus.
blacktygrrrr….wear your religion on your sleeve much? give it a break.
Isn’t America great?! Eric can express his freedom of religion proudly, and morons can comment also.
Very late to this thread . . .but this stands out -
Lunchtime? The PC brigade invites a muslim thug to lunch during Ramadan?
Gramma added it up and I’m older than all of you put together! I love MM and reading your comments because we think along the same lines (well, most of the time/don’t understand all acronyms). We have 4 great-granddaughters. My greatest frustration is my generation failed to stop this crazy stuff before it took root. The only reason/excuse must be we were raising our families during the Vietnam war and weren’t paying attention. After all we went through in WWII & Korea, we failed to see the danger ahead in “make love, not war”.
Not you’re fault gererations that followed forgot to water the plants.
Pennity,
You complain about someone who is not afraid to speak of his religion, do you also complain to Columbia or the National Press Club?
The American soldier gave you the right to express your opinions. We did not firght or die to extend that right to our enemies, including the chief terrorist of Iran.
Pennity: I don’t quite understand your motivation behind the comment made to eric/blacktygrr.
Please elaborate if you will.
Thanks.
Personally I’d rather not have a pennity for his thoughts.
Thanks, AJ #120: About exchanging our governor for your 2 senators, I’m sorry but you’d have to take our Atty Gen and 250,000 illegal aliens or it’s no deal. (Love your quick wit!)
I live in California gramma, I mean Northern Mexico, we dont need any more. but thanks.
They stopped counting but it’s in the millions. 
Yesterday, I posted how I was astounded that so many Americans have forgotten about the Iran Hostage crisis and how President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was responsible for the interrogation, torture of Former hostage Don Sharer and others at our own US embassy in Iran. Don Sharer identified Ahmadinejad as a student leader who called Americans “pigs and dogs.”
I know many of you were not even born in 1979 but what many like Sean Hannity do not realize is this man is a murderer. Forget about the holocaust denials and other outrages this man has blood on his own hands.
We have photos and video of this man holding an AK47 to heads of Americans during the Hostage crisis when Commie loving Jimmy Carter tried to appease him for 444 days. He was personally involved in Political Assassinations and murder.
Photo shows Iran leader as ‘79 U.S. hostage taker
Here are some examples of his murderous ways:
Iranian President Mahmood Ahmadinejad has been identified by at least six U.S. hostages as a ringleader in the 1979 U.S. Embassy takeover.
He stands accused of the murder of a Kurdish leader in Vienna by officials in Austria who say they have compelling evidence and want an arrest warrant sworn for him. Austrian MP Peter Pilz said he had “very convincing” evidence against Ahmadinejad in the 1989 murder. Gassemlou was shot dead with two other Kurdish activists.
Our Government and George W Bush have lost the moral authority to Govern. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad should be arrested and tried for the murders he committed sooner rather than later. Speaking at Columbia should not even be an option.In fact, Columbia should loose all its Federal Funding for this disgrace and Bloomberg should be removed from office.
When did America decide aiding and abetting Murderers was foreign policy?
Joseph Farah has something to say about all this too.
So, you want to visit Ground Zero?
Remember, he’s President I’m-in-a-jihad
I’m missing our Saturday potpourri.
Sorry for the double post
Thanks to the agreements that allow the UN (Useless Nincompoops) to be located on our soil we have to allow any official from any country that is a member of the UN access to that forum.
However, there is nothing in the UN agreements that say we have to allow them anything other than that.
We need Congress to pass new rules for that access wherein anyone from a country considered a supporter of terrorism, genocide, etc., can only go to and from their Embassy and the UN while they are on our soil … absolutely no exceptions …
We dont have to let him in the country period. mornin dl. mission accomplished? lol
