Drumbeat for War Continues

Quietly, on 150 college campuses across the country, including Penn, conservative students are getting ready to organize what is being billed as "the biggest conservative campus protest ever", Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week.

Organized and coordinated by the David Horowitz Freedom Center, this awareness week's goal is to "to confront the two Big Lies of the political left: that George Bush created the war on terror and that Global Warming is a greater danger to Americans than the terrorist threat." Yes, these people are serious!

Keith Olbermann named David Horowitz the worst person in the world on September 28th, for the ridiculous poster which is a photo with “a girl being buried before being stoned to death.” The image was actually from a film and the girl is ok, appearing in various shows since then. The poster has since been taken down from Horowitz's website.

Islamo-Facism week is scheduled for October 22-26 and rumor has it that Rick Santorum is the keynote at Penn. If you know any details about what is planned at Penn please email them to pennprogress [at] gmail.com.

More to come...
