[cynatnite]

This will open at the University of Arizona and was initiated in the wake of the Tucson shootings.

Here's the interesting list...

Bill Clinton and George "atheists aren't citizens" H.W. Bush are the co-chairs.

Sandra Day O'Conner and Tom Daschle are honorary co-chairs.

Board members will include former secretary of state Madeleine K. Albright; Kenneth M. Duberstein, chief of staff to President Ronald Reagan; Fox News anchor Greta Van Susteren; Trey Grayson, director of Harvard University's Institute of Politics; and former representative Jim Kolbe (R-Ariz.).

1. Greta Van Susteren

So nothing productive will come from this then eh?

[cynatnite]

2. That's my guess. n/t

7. She is by no means a

dumb person.

[inademv]

9. sure

But she has done little to distinguish herself as anything but a mouthpiece for a corporate agenda.

3. Apparently -

Civil discourse means "Oh, I agree with right wingers and corporatists". How has our country fallen so far?

4. Albright???

the one that said the death of so many children in Iraq was just "collateral damage"?
THAT albright?? Yeah........that's really civil................

5. That's not quite what she said - what she actually said was even worse.

When asked about all children dying in Iraq, she said it was "worth it." :mad:

6. "atheists aren't citizens". lol, did he really say that?? nt

8. Sounds like the "no labels" movement.

Bow, genuflect, and take it. The violence was from one side only and encouraged by one side only and 100% uncalled for. It is they who need to learn how to act in civil society.
