My Daughter Graduates from UMich and Obama is the Speaker! [Vanity--need advice]

My daughter called me tonight..."Dad...you'll never guess who is our graduation speaker...I'm in the car with Maggie...[laughing]..."

So I say: "Obama!"

And she said: "I told my friends I'm not going!" (I raised all good conservatives).

go for lunch or dinner.

Hopefully most who are graduating are not going to go and that would make this phony look rather stupid.
If you go you only add to the crowd, the less go the better it looks and the more it hurts his ego

Show respectful silence to the office of the President and wear a flag pin. You make the decision if it’s upside down or not.

How did she survive as an undergraduate with so many leftest profs? Maybe if she was in the sciences she didn’t have to deal with a lot of that.

She should go and not shake his hand.
Remember when Clinton was at the University of Chicago either 1999 or 2000, students did not shake his hand.

or get as many as you can and walk out during his talk after two minutes

imagine his face when he sees, hundreds, even a thousand all walking out at once and leaving him

his ego couldn’t take it nor could the media

LOL

HA! Great idea. Maybe write “You Lie” on the palm of the hand. Of course if The Won or his henchmen notice, it might get you sent to the re-edumacation camp.

What do we do while the community organizer speaks?

She graduated, she doesn't need to be there. Take her and her like minded friends out to a wonderful dinner and celebrate her graduation!

Or, if her like minded friends have like minded parents, all of you get together!

Its hers and your day, don't let it be corrupted by a "speaker" who has nothing in common with your ideals........

Enjoy the occasion!

Bring an Ipod. Better yet, a netbook and watch “300”.

It must be lonely for her there.

No ifs ands or buts you have to go. It's going to hurt a lot but it will only last as long as the teleprompter tells him to talk.

Take your diploma, you earned it, but do not stop to shake the hand of that miserable, egomaniac. He does NOT deserve to touch your beautiful hand. Wave to your mom and dad, instead!

I give Obama the same respect he gives us. Zero.

Sing ‘God Bless America’ at the top of your lungs and after they throw you out, sue the University of Michigan for religious discrimination. They will then have less money for their liberal brainwashing agenda.

For me the question would be how to stop puking until he stopped speaking.

Laughing at him would be much more effective than booing.

He completley recoiled and was thrown off his game when people laughed at him during the State of the Union.

Evil cannot stand to be mocked.

Give her a tube of blue lipstick and a set of big rubber ears.

GHW Bush was my commencement speaker at UM. All the liberal arts majors turned their backs to him when he got up to speak.

No-class jerks - your daughter would do well to not behave like them.

Don’t let the event be ruined by Obama. Go, ignore, enjoy. Attendance does not indicate approval of the speakers ... it indicates that you graduated.
