Question & Answer
And here's where it all kinda went downhill in a hurry.

It really didn't start with the audience, it started with both. Mr. Horowitz got nasty with some of his comments about Democrats, the "leftists," and actually every Democratic Senator who voted for the war. It's kind of become a time for people in the audience to get up and give speeches about stuff they are obviously uniformed about and for Mr. Horowitz to blow them off.

It's funny, when it comes time for him to share the microphone and engage in dialogue he really gets hostile.

I guess it's a good conversation as long as he's the only one who's talking.

Some of my favorite quotes:

"The stupidity here is mind-boggling."

"Do you really think the Bush Administration is listening to American feminists? I mean, come on..."

"This is just another example of a person who can't see that two plus two equals four."

"The answers are tailored exactly to the answers."

"A professor should not be preaching, they should teach."

"You can't read." -to Sofi Khaleel

"I think Iran has to be dealt with. I'm not the President or one of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to say what should be done about them."

"We have lost immense freedoms in this country because of Islamic radicals"

"This is mind-numbing stupidity."

"As a leftist, your principle is that everything that has gone wrong in the world America did."

The MSA is inviting Mr. Horowitz to their panel discussion on Contemporary Muslims in America tomorrow evening.

Question of the night goes to Ammar Ali for calling our Mr. Horowitz on questioning where the MSA gets their funding, impling that they receive their funding from Hezbollah, the Saudis, and the Muslim Brotherhood. "If we got our funding from the Saudis I'd be up on the stage with you. I'd have some major bling going on here. We get our funding from the university and local people."

More thoughts and a recap later, but for now I have to study for astronomy.

Good recap for those of us in SMI 331 reviewing for a Stats 301 midterm.

i will not criticize mr horowitz for saying that democrats voted for the war on terror. albeit, they were given faulty information, they still made a bad vote to go to war. not understanding the fact that democratic senatiors authorized the war too does i think amount to a less than strong understanding of government here. i would never have voted that way personally and i hold them accountabble as well. i do not hold them accountable the same way i do bush but they certainly had the right to vote no. we knew good and well that it was saudi arabia we should have attacked but nobody said it
