So a buddy of mine that I play golf with once a year sent me a picture of the newspaper from Cortland, New York <\/a>the other day, that ostensibly he was sending me because he runs the “Corn Ducky Derby” in Cortland, and his son was on the cover of the newspaper laying in the ducks. Essentially, it is a fund raiser for the Cortland Community Service Club<\/a>. Cortland is my adopted hometown, although I never lived there, and I have\u00a0sort of become an honorary citizen because I am friends with a whole slew of guys there. Anyway, Cortland has been hit pretty hard by the economic slump, and the Corn Ducky Derby <\/a>is a really good event, and seems a good excuse to have a few adult beverages and watch rubber ducks float down a river. With the exception of the Lalla Open Golf Classic (I am a 4 seed Lalla), the Corn Ducky Derby is the best thing in Cortland. Maybe the Jets practicing there, but the Jets suck.

Anyway, what caught my eye was the article to the right of the page, about Cindy Sheehan appearing at SUNY Cortland. I found an advertisement for it<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Cindy Sheehan, who is most known for her anti-war encampment at former-President George W. Bush\u2019s ranch in Crawford, Texas, will be the keynote speaker at Kent State Remembrance Day at SUNY Cortland Tuesday, May 4.<\/p>\n

Cortland Students for Peace will mark the 40th anniversary of what has become known as the Kent State Massacre with events throughout the day. Most events, unless otherwise noted, will be held on the steps of Corey Union. In the case of rain, the events will be held inside Corey Union. Kent State Remembrance Day events are free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

Kent State Remembrance Day events begin at 11 a.m. with art and presentations. A non-violent rally will be held at 11 a.m. Sheehan will speak at 3:30 p.m. and a non-violent march and vigil will follow at 4 p.m.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Anyhoo- Jonn has already covered the ridiculousness of the Kent State hagiography<\/a>, so I won’t go into that, but I wanted to see how her speech went. So, I went to get it from<\/a> the horses ass <\/del>mouth:<\/p>\n

For example, this past May 4th was the 40th anniversary of the Kent State Massacre in Ohio. I spoke at SUNY Cortland at the event that the students put together there to commemorate that awful day.<\/p>\n

I was pointing out to the crowd that four students being slaughtered by the US military was horrible 40 years ago, but millions of Vietnamese died at the hands of the same military, and since then millions of more people have been killed, displaced, or economically disadvantaged because of this wicked Empire.<\/p>\n

Then, I guess I went too far in some of the young people\u2019s eyes, because I pointed out that on September 11, 2001\u2014almost four thousands Americans tragically died\u2014but on that same day, (and every day since and every day after) tens of thousands of people died of starvation around the world. Then to make matters even worse, I compared the lives of the people who died of starvation favorably with the people who died on 9-11. I think I may have even said that they had the same exact existential right as those Americans! I heard from professors and the students that this caused a pretty big controversy on the campus.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Not content to just leave it at that little bit of insanity, she decided to up the ante and see where it would get her:<\/p>\n

The one problem I have with 9-11 conspiracy theories is that sometimes the theories and the people who propose them discount one very important fact. Even though I never condone or support violence, Arab-Muslims had legitimate reasons to plan and carry out an attack\u2014if they actually did is another question, though.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, even though violence=bad, when they do it (if they even do it) it is perfectly understandable.<\/p>\n

Looks like she lost that loving feeling thoug….<\/p>\n

Will the American people finally rise up against our government and demand an end to the U.S. war of military and economic terror against the world, or will we keep electing Jokers thinking, yes even hoping, that anything will change?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

….<\/p>\n

Can no one shut this dumb bitch up? I mean really. Her son was a hero, no bones about it. I can’t help but think he is looking down and just begging his mother to stop speaking. Her 15 minutes ended a long time ago. She should just slink away and hug it out with Geoff Stolen Valor Millard and stop embarassing herself.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
