Those Wacky Fordham Univ College Republicans

Post by dbackjon »

Mediaite has obtained a letter from Fordham University President Joseph M. McShane to the student body in which he strongly rebuked the school’s College Republicans group for booking conservative columnist Ann Coulter to speak on campus later this month, ultimately concluding that despite her “repugnant” speech the university will allow the event so as to uphold the university’s “tradition of fearless and robust engagement.”

“The College Republicans, a student club at Fordham University, has invited Ann Coulter to speak on campus on November 29,” the letter began, adding that despite her views being “unpopular,” the university will not block her from speaking.

However, he wrote, “to say that I am disappointed with the judgment and maturity of the College Republicans, however, would be a tremendous understatement. There are many people who can speak to the conservative point of view with integrity and conviction, but Ms. Coulter is not among them. Her rhetoric is often hateful and needlessly provocative—more heat than light—and her message is aimed squarely at the darker side of our nature.”

Rejected cuz I didn't fit their ideal male student model, which is: effeminate, confused, deeply religious, sexually ignorant, gay, fearful of authority figures, and signs indicating they would never rat out the school, a priest or the church.

No, you'd be rejected because you can't write a proper English sentence.

Have you ever heard of "parallel structure?" :lol:
