Oh, the yoo-manatee. "Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, which grooms future diplomats, has confirmed to The Lede that it did send an e-mail to students this week warning them to avoid posting comments online about the leaked diplomatic cables, if they ever hope to work for the State Department." I am not ordinarily on the side of the censors, obviously, but giving a gaggle of Ivy-League anal-rententive future-State-Dept. imperial pencil-pushers a little rectal rictus as they struggle to scrub their digital histories of impure thoughts and actions, well, it's worth the black redactor's pen, don't ya think?

Thought you'd spot that one purty quick ...
Don't they teach 'Always Lie On Your Med. Application 101' anymore?
Oh noes! The State Department is out as a prospective employer!
At least I have Defense to fall back on, eh?
What kind of dysfunctional childhood must one have gone through to want to become one of America's future diplomats?

I wonder if when you submit the form to have Facebook delete your profile, if it really deletes your profile. Or will these kids be rebuilding their networks in vain? It's a teachable moment for the brats but they'll learn the wrong lesson, else they wouldn't be at SIPA.
This seems to fit with the intent of making the conspiracy eat itself.
I wonder how many of these future diplomats changed their Facebook profile picture to a childhood cartoon image, in order to fight violence against children (who art our future).
Someone should leak those student's comments.
I do believe that removal from the Book of Life signifies death.
More job openings for graduates of Messiah College and Regent University.
they're gon' backtrace it. the consequences will never be the same!
You write really good articles, very attractive, I feel very shocked. I hope you can continue with your work, come on!
