I wholeheartedly agree. This jackass should be considered a modern-day Benedict Arnold, with his statements providing aid and comfort to our terrorist enemies. I'm exceedingly proud that this idiot hasn't spoken at my university and if the administration decided to invite him, I would be up at arms and withdraw my alumni donation. But i suppose the vapid types in blue states will pay this fraud good money to travel to and from their states spreading his moronic message. Not to mention this guy claims he's an Indian and no tribe in the country claims him. Hell, I'M more Indian than he is.

Heh, I knew it was a matter of time before this shit reached GC.
It probably really only matters to me, but much of his visit was funded by private donations rather than state money.
I went to to campus last night and was unsuccessful in getting a seat in the 300-seat Art Auditorium, but did get to watch his speech via video feed. Campus security was not ready for the thousands that showed up.
While I do not agree with his views on 9/11 and U.S. policy and many people find him offensive, what I find most terrifying and most offensive is the government's efforts to try and silence him. I don't see my alma mater supporting Dr. Churchill (and I think he's a moron too)...rather, I see my alma mater supporting protecting the right to speak.
So really, this really isn't about living in a blue or red state -- and I'm not surprised that Bill O'Reilly has his tighties in a wad again. I'd be too if someone said Fox News was a
"urinary sort of journalism". Tee hee hee har har. The University of Colorado gives him the paychecks. UH-Manoa has nothing to be ashamed about.
That being said, my annual alumni donation check will be in the mail next week.
