Pappy Boyington

K T warned me not to post while I was angry, but when she heard the news she got so angry she attacked her scratching post with rage.

Michelle Malkin posted about the students at the University of Washington not wanting to have a statue of Pappy Boyington at their school because
Student senator Jill Edwards, according to minutes of the student government's meeting last week, said she "didn't believe a member of the Marine Corps was an example of the sort of person UW wanted to produce."


My father was career military and was in four wars. He flew one of these, among many other types of aircraft:




He earned many commendations and is written of in a couple of books including this one. That's his painting on the cover.

NOT THE KIND OF PERSON THEY WANT TO PRODUCE?!? What a pack of ignorant, pampered over-indulged, ignorant morons! Get out and see the world, you creeps. The walkways of your arrogant university are paved with the brave deeds of the men and women who sacrificed all so you could have a home and a school and teaching free from oppression.

Your University is there because construction workers, architects and educators made it for you. And they were able to build it for you to house your cushy, spoiled rear ends because people like Pappy Boyington and my dad made it safe for them to do so!

Words fail me. Time to post.

Thankfully, more eloquent people than I are on the net.
