Local Columnist Explains What Invasion Of Iraq Was All About

"He took 11 bullets and lost a leg in Iraq, defending the right of silver-spoon scum at Columbia University to heckle and laugh in his face. Former Army Staff Sgt. Anthony Maschek was treated shamefully by a mob of soft-palmed slime as he appeared last week at a town-hall meeting, urging the return of ROTC to campus. This is conduct unbecoming human beings."

Oh, boo hoo hoo. He lost a leg in Iraq; I lost my iPhone in a Sephora. You don't hear me complaining to Andrea Peyser.
(I kid; I can't afford an iPhone)

I know someone who lost his iPhone at Blarney Cove on 14th Street.

I lost my will to live at the Blarney Cove on 14th Street.

I lost the memory of my lost will to live (which I stored on an i-phone I found at Sephora) at the Blarney Cove on 14th Street.

Weapons of mass alliteration.

This is a columnist unbecoming human beings.

Columbia University students held a rally last weekend protesting the school's acquisition of weapons of math instruction.

Columbia University students are outraged over university funding of both chemical and biological departments.

"They curse, discuss drugs, talk back, argue for grades, complain about everything, fancy themselves entitled to whatever they desire, and are just generally annoying."

This really feels familiar to me.

"They like _____, generally."

I wonder who taught them those traits

My clients are lazy assholes too, and if I called them out on it I'd get fired. Teachers need to shut the fuck up in public. Do what my teacher friends do and make fun of your students when we're getting drunk on thursday nights in the privacy of Cheap Shots.

It would seem that a man who took 11 bullets and lost a leg in Iraq wouldn't be much ruffled or insulted by a bunch of goofy nitwits at Columbia.

(Meanwhile, Teabaggers are encouraging each other to show up with concealed or, laws permitting, unconcealed, weapons at anti-union rallies in order to intimidate people with whom they disagree politically. Isn't it romantic?)

So she's basically saying the war wasn't worth it and never should have been fought? Welcome to the light, Andrea Peyser!

Meanwhile, Andrea, I don't see you donating any legs.
