This is from Boortz, yesterday (emphasis mine):

 

His name was Gregory Boyington.  Some called him "Pappy."  He served as a combat pilot in World War II with the 1st Squadron, American Volunteer Group.  This squadron was known as the Flying Tigers of China.  Boyington later served as a combat pilot for the U.S. Marine Corps.  He commanded Marine Fighting Squadron 214.  Perhaps you've heard of this squadron.  It was called the Black Sheep Squadron and was later featured in a TV series called "Baa Baa, Black Sheep."  Boyington shot down 26 Japanese aircraft while serving in the Pacific.  He was later shot down and spent 20 months in a Japanese POW camp.  For those of you who aren't up to par on World War II history, Japanese POW camps were not happy places.  Torture .. .and we mean real torture, not stripping them naked and taking snapshots.  After the war Pappy Boyington was awarded the Navy Cross and the Medal of Honor.  He died in 1988.  You can visit his grave in Arlington National Cemetery.

Education?  Oh yes!  Almost forgot!  Pappy Boyington was a graduate of the University of Washington.  Just recently the idea of erecting a memorial to this Medal of Honor winner at the University of Washington made its way to the student senate.  Here you have an alumnus who served in World War II. was captured and held, and was later awarded the Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross.  Perhaps some sort of monument would be a good idea!  

Well .. not to Jill Edwards.  Thanks to the folks at WorldNetDaily we can show you a copy of the minutes of a meeting of the student senate at the University of Washington.  Under old business there was a discussion of a resolution calling for a tribute to Pappy Boyington.  Student senate member Jill Edwards immediately moved to table the resolution.  She wanted other issues to be considered.  Another member said that the issue was at the top of the agenda and should be dealt with.  Jill's motion failed, but she wasn't through.  There was then some discussion on why Andrew Everett, another student senate member, wanted the memorial.  Everett responded that Colonel Boyington "had many of the qualities the University of Washington hoped to produce in its students."  Well, I guess that might be true, if leadership and courage are considered to be good qualities.  Anyway ... that's when Jill Edwards spoke up and showed her true colors.  She questioned whether it was appropriate to honor a person who killed other people.  Then the lovely Jill Edwards said that a member of the Marine Corps was not an example of the sort of person the University of Washington wanted to produce.

A member of the Marine Corps was not an example of the sort of person the University of Washington wanted to produce.  A member of the Marine Corps?  Because the UW wants to produce people who don’t respect duty, honor, and country??  Who IS an exmple of the sort of person UW wants to produce?

Ye Gods, I don’t even think Michael Moore would spew this sort of crap.

UPDATE:  Jill, wherever you are, please watch this video.
