Second comment on professors at Columbia

Submitted by Judy Schechter (United States), Apr 2, 2003 at 09:51

I have been reading some of the comments made by other readers and must say a couple of things. To ascribe anti American feelings to leftest, liberals, etc. is very hard for me to take. I considered myself a liberal up until just very recently, but like my fellow readers I am totally in favor of what our President is doing in Iraq. Like my fellow readers I too wonder how these self styled American haters would fair if they conducted themselves in the same way in places like Iraq, Saudia Arabia, Syria, etc. They are able to say what they want, get paid a decent salary for it, and enjoy a wonderful life, and then proceed to run down and rant and rave about the very country that gave them this position in the first place. My fellow readers are absolutely right. They should all be fired, kicked out, then they should try and live in the countries they are defending.
