Simply amazing

Feel like getting your blood up on a cold day? Well, here you go:

'Don't ask, don't tell' has been repealed. ROTC still shouldn't be on campus.

There are already over 700 comments to this article, many of them extremely good. Of course, this is just what narcissist Colman McCarthy wants; he's always been like a little kid who says outrageous things to get as much attention from the adults as possible.

Two of my favorite quotes appear among the comments:

George Orwell: "People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.”

Thucydides: "The society that separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting by fools."
