Hi All,

I enjoyed meeting everyone last evening.
As promised, I wanted to give you the information about Rich Lowry's visit:

It will be on Tuesday, Feb 10 at 8:30PM in 1000 McPherson Lab.  For more information, please visit OSU Sentinel and click on Rich's image.

If you have any questions, let me know.

John

 

["The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."]

Thanks John, will look forward to hearing his talk.

I don't know if you've got a way to do it, but if so, it might be a good idea to post a map of the university that identifies the location of McPherson Lab so people know how to find the place, as well as any recommendations you might have for where to park without getting ticketed.

Thanks for joining us last night.

Paul

Map and parking info can be found on Sentinel's website or go here:OSU map

Parking is available at the Arps Garage and costs about $4.00 for two hours.  If you stay past 10PM, you will need cash to feed the machine because the attendant goes off duty.

The Arps Garage can be accessed from either High Street or College Ave and is between Woody Hayes Drive and 18th Ave.

I've added a detailed entry on the calendar. Now it will appear as a n upcoming event on the home page.

Rich Lowry received this email this morning and posted it on NR's The Corner:

THAT WARM OHIO STATE WELCOME [Rich Lowry]
E-mail: "I didn't know who you were until I heard you were coming to Ohio State, but after reading many of your articles it's clear that you are one foolish bastard. You're ideologies are simply wrong, and you're arguing on an icy, steep slope. I can't wait to listen to you in person and ask questions that I'm sure you'll have no answer to, unless it's your same old right wing rhetoric. How can you clame that poverty and class divisions are not a result of giant corporations and low wages, but instead on WORK ETHIC?! You and people who think like you are responsible for the current state of our Union, yes, OUR Union, not just the right wing elitists who refuse to see the truth. F--- you Rich Lowry, An informed American"

***************
I am hoping he will save his questions for the END of the presentation.

I enganged the smug little girl who gave the UN speech question after the talk in a small debate.  She is quite impressed with herself, having graduated from high school and all.  Even took a small number of AP courses.  I suppose that if I were 17 or 18, and had not grown up around men and women who had accomplishments and had faced real problems, I might have been impressed as well.  It is a great tragedy that she is learning to be a coward.  She thinks "asking a question" in MacPherson is a brave thing to do.  Granted a big crowd can be intimaditing, as I discovered the first time I went to an OSU - Penn State game in Happy Valley.  There I was, in my scarlet and gray #45 jersey, in a sea of blue and white, yelling and moaning 180 degrees out of sync with the other 90,000 there.  But brave?  Hell, after the game we were buying one another beers.  Worse, although she seems to be bright, she will never be challenged.  Her major is women's studies.  It is a field taylor made to avoid confrontation with the great ideas and great thinkers that have shaped the world.  No need to come to grips with a wave equation, or try to really understand how and why a given chemical reaction takes place, or how electrons do their thing, or work thru a proof of Sylow's Theorems.  She may never try to create something new, to reach the moment of victory when you think you might need a patent attorney, or to move that new object into production in an economical way.  Yet due to her depatment's profund intellectual weakness and insularity, she may never know how primitave her education remains.  So she is at once a victim and one so mighty that she "deserves respect".   Poor thing.

After that email, I was expecting the worst. I was very impressed with the audience...including the Lefties. They behaved themselves and asked very thought-provoking questions. I was actually proud to be a part of Ohio State...something I haven't said for a very long time. Rich did an outstanding job as well.

Rich posted this on The Cornerthis morning:
THANK YOU OSU! [Rich Lowry] A fun night last night. A good crowd, with a fair amount of liberals. But they were respectful and asked pretty well-informed and challenging questions during the long Q&A (I don't think my hostile e-mailer actually showed up). Thanks to the student editors of The Sentinel, a new conservative paper on campus, for inviting me. They're just getting started, but are doing good work. OSU alums who are conservatives and care about their alma mater--I know there are lots of you out there since you've been e-mailing me--should check out the Sentinel website and consider donating. Anyway, good luck to Matt Naugle, Roch Hammond, Derek Norin and the rest of the Sentinel gang...

And then it was followed up by John Miller's post:
GO BLUE! [John J. Miller] Rich: I join you in wishing best-of-luck to the OSU conservatives. But college loyalty compels me to mention that the University of Michigan--home of the slogan: "Oh How I Hate Ohio State"--also has a conservative student newspaper, The Michigan Review

Notes from Rich Lowry Event

Great Quotes:

1.   Monica Lewinsky had greater access to President Clinton than CIA director James Woosey

2.   Pacifists should have supported the war in Iraq because Saddam had already started two wars

3.   Humanitarians should have supported the war in Iraq because of the hundreds of mass graves and oppression

4.   Feminists should have supported the War with Afghanistan and to a lesser degree Iraq because of the horrible treatment women get in those countries

5.   Multi- lateralists should have supported the war in Iraq because it restored the credibility of the UN, and Saddam had been defying its will and resolutions. It also has exposed the UN as a highly corrupt organization, and you can’t fix a problem unless you recognize it.

6.   Environmentalists should have supported the war in Iraq because Saddam inflicted great environmental damage by burning the oil wells in Kuwait and draining the swamps of the Marsh Arabs.

7.   When the British controlled India, wife burning was widespread. When the British decided to end this practice, they were challenged by Indian representatives, claiming that it was their culture and the British had no right in telling them that their culture was unacceptable. The British were horrified. But, you don't understand, they were told. Wife burning is deeply rooted in the Indian tradition, religion, and culture. The British responded, that's fine. But you should understand our tradition of hanging people who burn their wives.

8.   He told a story about a girls’ school burning in Saudi Arabia two weeks after Americans rushed into the tower to save as many lives as they could. In Saudi Arabia, the girls, rushing out of the burning building, were turned back and forced to return into the burning building because they were not dressed properly. Many died for simply not having the proper clothes on to be in public.

9.   "They said we were soft. They would never be unified. They would fool around at a distance. They would never come to grips. They would never stand bloodletting. Their democracy and system of recurrent elections would paralyze the war effort. They would be just a vague blur on the horizon to friend or foe. Now we should see the weakness of this numerous but remote, wealthy, and talkative people." That was not written by the terrorists, although it might have been. It was a description of the critic's view of America written by Winston Churchill, just after the United States entered World War II. And Churchill knew better. He said, "I thought of a remark which Edward Gray had made to me more than 30 years before. The United States is like a gigantic boiler. Once the fire is lighted under it there is no limit to the power it can generate."

10. He made a joke about the French contributions to the war in Afghanistan being a group French paratrooper parachuting behind enemy lines to teach the Taliban to surrender.

11. He said any young person that supports social security is committing generational suicide.
