Paragons of Liberty Adopt Cornell Pro-Lifers to Their Pet Cause
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008
Cornell has a well-deserved reputation for incubating a certain breed of political animals, that is to say, we pop out overzealous assholes like nobody’s business. There is, of course, our very own “Rush Limbaugh in a miniskirt”: the Cornell Review-founding, polemic-trafficking Ann Coulter ‘84. And on the other side of the partisan picket fence, there’s ESPN sportscaster-cum-liberal talking head Keith Olbermann ‘79. And recent weeks have found our glorious institution, yet again, at the center of the shit-slinging culture war between liberals and conservatives. Except this time the wannabe pundits of Cornell are not bashing one another like the big boys and girls do — some outside libertarians are jumping into the fray, too, and it’s all because some blasted zygote had to up and scrawl her (pro-)life story on some signs (see left).
