It was a bad week for Republican political figures. Several gave speeches at graduation ceremonies and several were clearly not welcomed. I'd like to know... what were these school officials thinking by inviting these people? NEWSFLASH!!! To College Presidents, Chancellors, & Boards of Directors... THIS WAS NOT THE BEST TIME TO INVITE THESE FOLKS TO SPEAK TO YOUR STUDENTS ON THEIR MOST IMPORTANT DAY!
Better speakers could have been chosen.
Students and faculty at Boston College were against Condoleeza Rice Speaking there and receiving an honorary degree. At least one Professor resigned as a result.
Then Cheney got the cold shoulder at the LSU graduation. Some students protested there. And keep in mind that Lousiana is safe territory for Conservative Republicans, despite the serious poverty in that State.
Now John McCain is nearly run off the stage at "The New School" graduation ceremony in New York. Listen to the NPR report. HILARIOUS!
