Mr. Bollinger's denunciation accomplished nothing except to embarrass himself as a poor host. The Iranian press pretended it never happened, so Mr. Ahmadenijad can bask in his validation from addressing a prestigious Western institution. Anyone who wishes to can take whatever propaganda victory they desire from this whole debacle. In the end, Mr. Ahmadenijad gets to preen, and his enablers can point to his performance at Columbia as completely forthright and brave. The losers, of course, are truth, justice, and the American way. As always.

Ahmadinnijad should be accorded respect as head of government - AT THE UN. He should not be spreading his lies and filth at our colleges - we can get that from professors like Ward Churchill, etc. It is a bitter commentary on our society when a tyrant is given more respect than our President. What is wrong with this picture? Bollinger was wrong twice – once for inviting the twit and then being intentionally rude to try to curry favor after the fact.
