Ann Coulter on the New School Graduation Ceremony Mike Rappaport

Ann does a number on Jean Rohe, the New School student who insulted John McCain at graduation.

Update: And don’t miss Brian Leiter’s defense of heckling — or should I say this heckling.  It all seems to depend on who is talking.  My favorite line from his excerpt of a student’s speech:

Ignorant, closed-minded people would not have been able to do what wedid. We chose to be in New York for our years of higher education forthe very reason that we would be challenged to listen to opposingviewpoints each and every day and to deal with that challenge in anonviolent manner

Here is a news alert: New York City, especially Manhattan where the New School is, is not filled with opposing viewpoints.  One can count the conservatives on one hand.  I know at least two of them, and they don’t report very much tolerance of differing political views — except the kind of tolerance shown by the New School students.
