Truthdigger of the Week: Jean Rohe

Truthdig salutes New School University graduating senior Jean Rohe, whose commencement speech at Madison Square Garden on Friday preemptively struck against the address that Sen. John McCain was due to deliver directly after her.

Click here for links to the speech, biographical information on Rohe, and the instantly infamous response by one of McCain’s staffers in which he insulted Rohe’s graduating class and called her an “idiot” in print.

UPDATE: Rohe responds to the McCain staffer: “Please don’t try to bully me anymore.”
UPDATE #2: Rohe goes on MSNBC.
