    misleading lead-in

    there is no "acknowledgement of her alma mater" implied in the fact that she's coming to the town of princeton for a fundraiser. it's simply an acknowledgement that a lot of people in the area have money and are willing to give to the obama campaign.

    Shame on those who gave to Planned parenthood, a despicable organization that practices infanticide.

    Oh wait, that's something Obama (and presumably ms. Obama?) support as well.

    Stop trolling. Additionally, it's President Obama. SHow some respect.

    Hey pro-life, show the son of God some respect! After all, since he is a Democrat and speaks "for the people," he is untouchable. But feel free to make fun of (President?) Bush and Republicans. It's the socially cool and permissible thing to do.

    (Although I disagree on one point, that Planned Parenthood shouldn't be shut down).

    Also, one has to laugh at the Obama supporters who speak "for the people" and decry the "rich," when supporters have to pay $10,000 (an exorbitant sum by any measurement) just for a photo with Mrs. Obama. But I guess being "rich" is ok if you are a Democrat, but if you are a Republican, you're selfish?

    Bless Ms. Golden for supporting Planned Parenthood

    Planned Parenthood helps many underprivileged people - sort of the opposite of the anti-choice movement. Whenever I see those despicable anti-choice protesters, I stop and politely ask them how many children they have adopted. The answer is "none." It seems the protesters are wasting time harassing innocent people instead of helping their city's many unwanted children.

    Amazing. Despite her liberal white professors acting nice to her, she still felt like a black first and a student second. Maybe, that's why she was admitted in the first place?

    Oh right because no Catholics have ever adopted. Silly me.

    Will anyone in your Newspaper ask her serious questions,
    as out Country's future is at stake. President Obama's
    non-foreign policy has been a disaster for our future
    and our children's future. He Won't meet with Israel's
    prime minster, but instead goes to parties. The
    Embassador was murdered by terrorist attack and the
    adminstration and news media cover it up and says it
    was not planned - Countries around the globe including
    Russia have reported accurately on this. Is anyone
    awake on this Campus? Does anyone see the dire state
    of lack of leadership? Only Univision asked him
    journalistic questions. Mrs. Obama is using you, and
    you are buying it. Have some loyalty to America and
    hold leaders accountable. Does anyone in Princeton have
    any courage. Speak up now and move your feet and voices.

    I'm still trying to understand how she was able to engage in such navel-gazing and have it accepted as a senior thesis. It doesn't sound like an academic paper, but instead like a letter home to her parents.
