How do you know when supposed patriotism is really just sickness? When you post signs saying "Think Big: Bomb Iraq" with pictures of craters, as the NYU Republican Club did recently, and as the author of this Op-Ed is correct to decry; removing the flyer, of course, was a stupid move, and just writing the Op-Ed without tearing the flyer would have been decidedly smarter...
UPDATE: How do you know when idiocy amongst student activists can be just as strong on the right as it can on the left? When an NYU Republican who designed the flyers refuses to own up to the reality that he promoted war in a jocular tone wholly unfit for "public debate" and disrespectful to the people of Iraq, many of whom will lose their lives and homes in an attack.
