Michelle Malkin: THE FIGHT OVER PAPPY BOYINGTON:
How does one respond to this?
"The University of Washington's student senate rejected a memorial for alumnus Gregory 'Pappy' Boyington of 'Black Sheep Squadron' fame amid concerns a military hero who shot down enemy planes was not the right kind of person to represent the school.
Student senator Jill Edwards, according to minutes of the student government's meeting last week, said she 'didn't believe a member of the Marine Corps was an example of the sort of person UW wanted to produce.'
Ashley Miller, another senator, argued 'many monuments at UW already commemorate rich white men.'"
