Oh, don't worry hon, I read the rest of the article. I know you're not smart...
Go to the site and read the gazillion respondes to this LibGal....
You’re right. She’s probably dreading the prospect of running for office in some liberal enclave with the possibility that someone will find out she has a brother serving in the Navy or Marine Corps. She’d probably rather have him dishing out soup for OXFAM, or doing abortions.
My posted response at the website:
“I had difficulty finishing this rant as I was laughing so hard the words began to blur with tears. I am 61 now and retired after 28 years in the Navy and Navy Reserve. During that time I was privileged to serve with the best people in the world, including my shipmates in Vietnam. Meanwhile, my alma mater, The University of Massachusetts at Amherst , has descended into a cesspit of third-rate minds majoring in Victims Studies and Racism Studies, “graduating” tens of thousands of surly, unbathed unemployables who settle like sediment into Liberal enclaves like Amherst and Cambridge and San Francisco, free to lead lives of self-indulgent, mindless Liberalism while kept safe and pampered by their betters in the armed services.
One can only hope that the ignorance of this article’s writer will somehow cure with age. “
ABNORMAL PSYCH 481
Final Exam Question:
During your initial interview, a new patient, without significant affect, states:
I know why I chose Columbia: the campus is magnificent, the education is top-tier, and my peers are intelligent. I could look at a stranger, tell him or her that I went to Columbia, and hear the predictable, “Wow, you must be smart.”
Identify the primary psychopathology demonstrated by this statement, probable courses of therapeutic approach and likelihood of recovery.
EXTRA CREDIT
How would the fact that the patient lied about being a Columbia student, but was actually a Barnard College senior majoring in political science affect your diagnosis or treatment?

Wow, you must be smart!!! < GUFFAW> < SNORT>
You go to Columbia, Well Bless your heart.
You can be virtually assured that a fellow who feels the need to declare how smart he is usually has his suspicions, as will others.
This piece of rubbish is contemptible on so many grounds. But I would like to call attention to a really odd aspect of the attitude of the little shrew who wrote it: She seems to think that her brother is her child! She speaks throughout like it is her direct responsibility to either allow or not allow him to make the choice to attend the Naval Academy. And at the end, we see that she herself is a college senior. What an arrogant twit. The young midshipman probably chose this route as the only way te get free of this suffocating family.
Well, not me. That would be Princess Idris....
“Well Bless her heart” is a southern idiom for what an ignorant slut.
Among a number of other similar sentiments... ;)
That statement tells me more about the author than the fact that he went to Columbia: a shallow, self-centered, egotistical, know-it-all liberal.
My brother made the mistake of going to Cornell...he felt much the same way going in and came out with a chip on his shoulder that he hasn't lost to this day.
Columbia is a pit of Socialist thought.
Wow, the comments must have been brutal because now the link is bad.
They changed the path a little - http://www.columbiaspectator.com/?q=node/26470
The scariest thing is that this chick is majoring in political science.
