Reply #9: I ran into a whole buncha such idiots at Syracuse U. graduation [View All]

We went to attend the graduation of some family members. At the Visual and Performing Arts ceremony, the invited speaker began talking about the crimes of the Bush administration, and my family was clapping and murmuring "right on!" Then to my amazement, at least half of the audience began booing and hissing and telling the speaker to get off the stage. They were not going to listen to someone criticize their boy Bush. I thought: so this is where Bush's 50% support comes from. From these Republicans sitting here who want to cover their ears lest they hear the truth.

I think the vast majority of the students agreed with the speaker. It's their idiot parents who were getting steamed.
