Man, I wacthed that when it aired, I was a little suprised he sided with the the pro-minutemen, oh well, I'll still watch it as often as possible.

 

[skadistic]

I like how he sided with the MMP with out really siding with them.

To take the point he made at the end. Those spoiled little brats are lucky that the speaker and his security didn't protect them selves with more force and prejudice.

Congratulations Columbia University, you made Sean Hannity look like the reasonable one.

Avoiding Political Embarrassment the Columbia University Way
How do you avoid political embarrassment at Columbia University these days?

Disinvite invited guests to a talk sure to interest conservatives and other hawks in the larger NYC community. A talk, by the bye, well advertised in several major conservative blogs.

Why, we wonder, at 4:45 in the afternoon, a mere 3:15 hours before Walid Shoebat and his panel were to speak to an audience at Columbia University, all of whom had RSVP'd to the Columbia University College Republicans who were sponsoring the talk, and received invitations from them to the event, has Jewelnel Davis, the advising officer to Student Governing Board groups at Columbia decided to rescind all of the invitations?

Can it possibly be that, having been severely embarrassed by last week's events - when radical leftists at Columbia were left free to act as thugs and attack the Minutemen - and the blogstorm it precipitated, resulting in severe, public criticism of Lee Bollinger, President of Columbia University, for his lack of initiative at solving the problem, this week they decided to solve the problem - at the last minute - by restricting their popular lecturer to Columbia students and 20 invited guests.

It is the decision of the advising office to Student Governing Board groups that at tonight’s event sponsored by the Columbia College Republicans, hosts to the Walid Shoebat Foundation, attendance will be limited to the invited speakers and their staff, CUID holders, and 20 invited guests. You are receiving this email to inform you that unfortunately, your RSVP to tonight’s event cannot be accepted. Sincerely,


Jewelnel Davis
University Chaplain
Associate Provost
Director of the Earl Hall Center

This is how the school dealt with the next conservative speaker.

So instead of allowing a wider audiance or offering security they limit guests. What a bunch of idiots. I'd have loved to hear Walid Shoebat talk.

Well-educted but dumb as a post.

I thought they did pretty well in the debate (yes I watched the entire 7 minutes and 11 seconds).

Those girls lost me when they started to call them racist.

Those girls lost me when they started to call them racist.

They called the movement and the ideals of the minutemen as racist which is true in my opinion because they are basically trying to exclude one group from moving into another groups ("their groups" as they think) territory.

Hannity - "I didn't see any violence" ????? Well he just lost what little credability he has.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

It's irronical how the second interviewer (No idea who's Hannity and who's Colmes) doesn't let the girls finnish even one sentence and bash them for not letting Gilchrist speak.

4 people who deserve each other in 'debate' (read shoutingmatch)

@Mr. Stewart as always

I just watched a grown man repeat "you did not allow freedom of speech" about 200 times in 5 minutes. Are all of his interviews nothing but him stating the same thing over and over?

Some dialogue would have been nice ...

 

[Bamspeedy]

I love how the girl complains of being interrupted. They were treated the same way they treated the minutemen.

That's why Jon Stewart is so funny - he's a little lefty, but he has no problem making fun of everyone, right or left. Which is what is needed for good political humor, if everyone isn't a target, then it becomes boring old political bashing. Jon Stewart get's credit for staying away from that most of the time, and being one of the funniest guys on TV.
