Jean Kirkpatrick is coming to town.

[DedEye]

Hey everyone. Jean Kirkpatrick, the former US ambassador to the UN under Reagen, is coming to my town to give a lecture. However, she's also going to hold a private conversation with local high school students while she's here (A Q&A period to my understanding). Anyhow, I'm going to be meeting with her, and more than that I get to choose 10-15 other students to meet with her and ask her questions.
Can you all provide me links to information about Dr. Kirkpatrick, as well as questions you'd like to see her asked?

She's the female Cheney. AEI and PNAC to the core.

6. Blame America First.

Jean Kirkpatrick was one of the original old-time New Deal DEMs who switched over to the Dark Side of the modern national security state. She chose to endorse Pruneface Reagan and his war on the people in Central America — as well as openly endorsing the senile turd's voodoo economic warfare on the middle class — and was rewarded for her slavish self by getting picked to head the US UN delegation. One of her most famous and oft-quoted lines of this female NAZI:

“When Marxist dictators shoot their way into power in Central America, the San Francisco Democrats don't blame the guerrillas and their Soviet allies, they blame United States policies of one hundred years ago, but then they always blame America first.”

—Jean Kirkpatrick, Speech at the 1984 Republican Convention

Here's a nice bio with lots o' links:

http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Kirkpatrick

GOOGLE hints: JF and Ollie North, Contras, Central America. You'll see why she thought she was a leading member of the secret government.

EDIT: stuff from the quote on down.

9. My brain kind of fogs up at the mention of her name, but

She is a member of the 'Board of Advisors from Hell' for this think tank:

Was a guest speaker at a recent ZOA Annual general meeting, ZOA make AIPAC look postively sensible:

10. Thanks.

I'd found this link and have used it as my primary source on her background.

Also, I want to keep a tone of at least moderate respect, and let my pointed questions be my main source of antagonism, rather than flatly calling her a nut-case.

My question is now:
"What would you ask Jeane Kirkpatrick if you had the chance?"

8. Ask her about her forbidden affair with Al Franken.

Those of you who've read Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot... will get the joke!
