An apology is in order!

Silly, Silly Man!

Those who sharply criticized Columbia University School of International and Public Affairs President Lee C. Bollinger for inviting Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak owe him a galaxy sized apology. You know who you are so I’m not naming names/blogs/media outlets. Lee Bollinger’s opening statement and questions, along with many of the students’ questions reduced President Ahmadinejad to a melted ice cream cone on a hot sunny day.

Watching President Ahmadinejad squirm around on questions and deliver some downright silly answers today was amusing, embarrassing (for him), and at times weird. His only “somewhat point” was why Palestinians have to suffer for the Holocaust (referring to their displacement). We can talk about that intelligently in another forum with DIFFERENT people with REAL answers. Not you President Ahmadinejad.

I love the freedom of speech.
