Er, enough to make national media?

Sure. Again, when a local city council is complicit with a leftist militant organization that even “mainstream” liberals cringe at, it will (and should) make national media. On the other end of the political spectrum, if some municipality in podunk Alabama were to pass some resolution that supported the actions of the church of Reverend Phelps, I’d sure as hell like to hear about it too.
At the very least, as a circular file item, it’s certainly outrageous enough.



Enough to make it a subject of constant debate?

It was only for about a week. And why not? People enjoy debating totally outrageous topics – and I’d argue that steady debating an item does not constitute blowing it out of proportion.



Enough to make certain congressmen attempt to pull funding not just to the city, but to the university, which had absolutely nothing to do with the event in the first place?

Simply a page out of Strategy 101 – make a move that bifurcates the opposing alliance by putting them in an untenable position :)
