The Nutty Professor

The other day a friend of mine forwarded an account of an e-mail
exchange between a cadet at the Air Force Academy and a professor at
St. Xavier University.

The cadet was innocently informing the college about an event called The
Academy Assembly, a gathering where political subjects are discussed and
inquiring about the best methods of advertising in the St. Xavier area.
The letter ended up in the hands of a certain professor, Peter Kirstein,
and here is the professor’s reply:

“You are a disgrace to this country and I’m furious you would even think
I would support you and your baby killing tactics of collateral damage.
Help you recruit, who, top guns to reign death and destruction upon non
white people throughout the world? Are you serious sir?
Resign your commission and serve your country with honor.

No war, no Air Force cowards who bomb countries with A.A.A. without
possibility of retaliation.

You are worse than the snipers. You are imperialists who are turning
the whole damn world against us.

Sept. 11th can be blamed in part for what you and your cohorts have done
to Palestinians, the VC, the Serbs a retreating army at Basra.

You are unworthy of my support.

Peter Kirstein
Professor of History, St. Xavier University”

My letter to Professor Kirstein:

No sir, you are a disgrace to this country, you and all you, blame
America, bleeding heart, socialistic, politically correct, flower child
dinosaurs. The world has changed since the sixties professor, get your
square head out of the sand. Wake up and smell the ashes of September
11th.

You insult the military of this country, the very young men and women
who stand in the gap and make it possible for people like you to espouse
your harebrained ideas. Try writing your letter to Saddam’s republican
guard.

You mentioned the words baby killer. Well while you didn’t state it, I
would bet a Mercedes to a mule collar that you would define yourself as
pro choice. Do you have any idea how many innocent babies have been
murdered in the name of pro choice? So you have a lot of nerve accusing
anybody of being a baby killer.

You used the words “Air Force cowards”, I wish you could see some of the
Air Force cowards I recently visited in Korea. Young men and women who
stand in a state of readiness in the back yard of one of the most
dangerous and volatile nations on earth. That takes a real coward
doesn't it professor?

You mention our treatment of the Palestinians but you didn’t extend your
baby killer description to the ones who regularly slaughter innocent
children in Israel.

Check out what happened in Somalia professor when we tried to feed the
people of that country and the food was confiscated by anIdi Amin, who
ended up killing some of our troops and dragging a body through the
streets of the city.

And what did Bill Clinton, the poster child of your kind of thinking do?
He turned tail and ran, more concerned about his poll numbers than he
was with teaching a third rate war lord that he can’t take the lives of
Americans without paying a terrible price .

I can’t believe that a University could back someone with your
convictions but I guess that’s just the world of academia.

I wish there was a way for people like you who so despise our military
to be responsible for your own security. I’d like to see the look on
your face when one of Usama’s boys knocked on your front door.

Who you gonna call, Tom Dashle?

Disrespectfully yours,

Charlie Daniels
