You could mention my name in any hallway in any academic institution and you would have people foaming at the mouth.
Israel is the canary in the mine. What happens to Israel will eventually happen to America itself.
It's very hard to have respect for a woman who exploits the death of her own son and doesn't respect her own son's life. This young man volunteered twice. This is not a draftee. This is somebody who volunteered, did a tour of four years and volunteered back for Iraq, and volunteered for the specific mission.
Her cozying up to dictators will erode ... any support she may have had from the patriotic anti-war camp.
Professors are not supposed to be dealing in opinions.

If we celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday at a time of presidential inaugurals, this is thanks to Ronald Reagan who created the holiday, and not to the Democratic Congress of the Carter years, which rejected it.
