That's too bad, given that he has been accused of war crimes committed during the "War to Make the World Safe for Emirs."
On Saturday, a group of radical librarians including myself will be protesting the General in New Orleans as he gives a keynote talk on "volunteerism" to the American Library Association convention. No, he's not "volunteering" his talk for free. ALA is giving him $20,000 and a library corporation is giving him another $50,000 for the boilerplate talk. Needless to say, many librarians are outraged.
I'll "volunteer" for $75,000.
