Hitler to Teach Jewish Studies

Charles Manson is doing a goodwill tour..and Bill Clinton is during a lecture circuit on marital fidelity.
Sounds ridiculous doesn't it?
But it's no more ridiculous than disbarred Lynne Stewart teaching Ethics at New York University.

From Fox News:

HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — A disbarred lawyer convicted of helping her client communicate with terrorists was scheduled to teach at a Long Island, N.Y., law school ethics conference, FederalReview.com reported.

Lynne Stewart, who was convicted in 2005 of providing material support to terrorists and received a 28-month sentence, was to speak at Hofstra Law School’s legal ethics conference, set for Oct. 14 to Oct. 16.

Her former client, sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, was sentenced to life in prison for plotting to blow up five New York landmarks and assassinate Egypt's president.

According to Hofstra’s Web site, conference speakers were expected to discuss "prosecutorial abuse, the challenges of representing prisoners at Guantanamo and attacks on lawyers who represent unpopular clients and causes."

In a country that allows the leaders of hostile countries to speak openly at Ivy League Universities, I suppose I should not be surprised. A University, I might add, that doesn't allow representatives from the military on-campus and apparently condones those who attack speakers from the Right.

But, it could have been worse...
It could have been Hillary Clinton teaching ethics.

freedom now says "
Sometimes I find it fascinating, sometimes it pisses me off..."

To be honest, I always fall in the latter category.

Was she speaking as an example of what NOT to do?

UGH!

I had a huge laudry list of hypocrites and contradictions, but my feeble mind started to collapse ... Al Shaprton on finding out the truth before opening his trap ... Al Gore and enviromental household tips ...

Would tar and feathering be considered a hate crime?

I have met Stewart in person and she is scary.

I'm with Brooke. The only thing she'd be qualified to teach is what NOT to do in Ethics.

Maybe we can get Ghengis Kahn to teach "How to Win Friends and Influence People" next...
