Hunter Statement on Columbia University Invited Speaker

Congressman Duncan Hunterissued astatement this morning from Mackinac Island directed to Columbia University.

"To host the leader of Iran when he supports terrorists that are movingdeadly roadside bombs across the Iraqi border to be used againstAmericantroops is a slap in the face for the entire 165,000 men and women inIraqand to those that have served before them," said Hunter. "If President Lee Bollinger follows through with this hosting of theleaderof Iran, I will move in Congress to cut off every single type ofFederalFunding to Columbia University. If the left-wing leaders of academiawillnot support our troops, they, in the very least, should not support ouradversaries."

"This event, following the slanderous action of MoveOn.org, depictingGeneral Petraeus as "General Betray Us," in the New York Timesrepresentsthe emergence of the extreme left-wing in American politics." Concluding, "I think it is time for the Democrat party to denouncethisfringe element in their party," said Hunter.

Columbia University claims they are America’s best and brightest?

Did you see the way they applauded Ahmadenijad?

They are just a bunch of filthy Little Eichmanns.

It is too bad that Cho Seung-hui didn’t go to Columbia University!
