I am Jewish and although I would fight for her right to pose with such idiots, I would hope that she would have enough knowledge, self worth, and intellect to not pose with someone in such a costume.

Re: University president poses with suicide bomber
It is distasteful, but I have seen worse Halloween costumes than that.
By the way, your post title is severely misleading. She is not posing with a suicide bomber. She is posing with someone dressed as a suicide bomber.

Re: University president poses with suicide bomber
I guess if I was a hard-core Republican who was unable to admit that they do anything wrong ever, and I saw other threads talking about:
- how the Military Times is calling for Rumsfeld to be fired and,
- how the president of the National Association of Evangelicals, who is a prominent anti-gay rights activist and who frequently meets with President Bush, turned out to be an adulterous hypocrite,
...I'd probably also ignore those and start another thread on what is relatively a trivial issue.
President of Penn poses for a photo with a student in a tacky and offensive costume? Sounds like a story big enough for the front page ... of the student paper.

Re: University president poses with suicide bomber
Whoa! People wear costumes on Halloween? I've never heard of that peculiar practice before!
Next thing you know people will be gorging themselves on poultry or wearing red fur-lined apparel or some other bizarre rituals. We've got to put a stop to this.

Re: University president poses with suicide bomber
My oh my . . . I made a post I thought we could all agree with, and you guys figured out how to attack me over it anyway. Bravo!!! This board never ceases to amaze me.

Re: University president poses with suicide bomber
1. He is wrong to dress up like that.
2. She is wrong for allowing him to dress up like that, let alone take a pic with him.
3. You would not even care if it was someone named Jason Smith or something dressed up like that, but because its someone named Saad Saadi (or whatever), is the reason you care.
4. Its just a halloween costume. I seen people dress up like Bin Laden... like Saddam. Who cares?
