First Georgetown, now Harvard invites uribito

to be a guest speaker at the Kennedy School of Government. Not certain if it was to be today or next week.

That, of course, led to the letter of protest in link below. One of the signers is Hollman Morris and it would be interesting if Morris engages alvarito in a "conversation" during alvarito's speech.

Btw, alvarito is scheduled to be deposed in the Drummond case on Monday.

1. Thanks, rabs. Is there any major American institution that doesn't welcome criminals?
:puke:

2. Maybe he will show up at Stanford next



and you will get a chance to go hiss and boo him loudly. :-)

I am thinking that the (undoubtly very intelligent) people who run Georgetown and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government want to give students a first-hand contact with evil. Otherwise, with all the scandals swirling around uribito, why would they invite him.

3. Since the Priesthood is short of exorcists everybody should stock up on garlic.

4. Wonders never cease. This has to be a new low for this institution, as well.
Looks as if someone is making sure he keeps moving around with high visibility, and for what purpose?

Unbelievable. Someone with his history should go into hiding.

Thanks for the tip on the impending Drummond business.

5. Oh Well
If they don't let Uribe speak for his sins, then who gets to speak? Most of these guys have skeletons in their closet. Or maybe this professor proposes the only ones who are allowed to speak are Mother Theresa and Winnie the Pooh?
