Eat your peas!
The graduates will probably be safe enough, if we see “regime change” in our future. The parents & relatives, not so much.
I think that’s a cool idea. If each student threw in $5, they’d have enough to get a fairly well-known speaker, perhaps even a minor, but well-known, celebrity or business person to give a decent speech.
Dang, Topeka school starts August 13... Gotta be really hot!
Who the hell invited her? Or did she invite herself to the ‘Heartland’ for political purposes?
That’s my home town! Ain’t nobody got time for Mooch.
I smell IRS audits coming.
Let her come. Then boo and hiss at her.
Uh-Oh! Their names will be forwarded to the proper authorities....
I wonder if either Sarah Palin or Ted Cruz would speak. Might be worth a shout out to them and see.
As was stated, the event should be solely focused on celebrating the achievements of the graduating students, their families, and their teachers.
On the occasion of my daughter's graduation ceremony, the Westboro BC Democrat loons decided to try to disrupt/hijack the event for their own unknown reasons.
Thankfully members of our community, who were not already busy with a very important family event, quietly took it upon themselves to nullify the disrupters.God bless them.
I'm sure Mrs. Obama’s presence would be welcomed on almost any other day in that city to make a speech about the importance of the Brown vs Board of Education decision. Just not that particular day/event/venue!
1200 students are probably tired of EVERYTHING ABOUT RACE. That all those vile people living in the White House understand.
Uh-Oh! Their names will be forwarded to the proper authorities....
Probably made a future IRS list.
And the issue is that none of the kids have anything to do with that moment in time, heck even their grandparents were young.
the 1200 should just turn their chairs around backwards and don’t face her.
As soon as the last bell rung on the last day of HS I made a beeline to the Asst. Principle's office. That's where they held the diplomas. I asked to see Mr. So-and-So. I was already in a bad mood because someone had stolen my fully signed HS Annual. They told me he was in his office and that I could go in. I had been four years in the National Honor Society. The office staff never suspected a thing from me.
Anyway, I politely knocked on the door. He looked up and told me to come in. I did. I said, "Sir, I have come for my diploma." They were stacked up against the wall. He said, "You can't have it." I said, "Sir, you don't understand, I'm not asking for it." he said, "Sir I told you no."
I quietly turned around and closed and locked his office door. Then I turned back and leaned forward at his desk. I said, "Here is the deal Sir, I am not leaving this office without the diploma that I have earned. Do you understand?" He looked deep into my eyes for a few seconds then said, "Ok, I'll Get it." I said, "Thank you Sir.
Not another word was spoken. He retrieved my diploma, handed it to me and I left. I never stepped foot back on that campus of hypocrites again.
p.s. Ten years later I ran into a high school friend that I had not seen since graduation. We struck it up and he invited over to his apartment to watch a ballgame. I went over for some beers, BBQ and to watch the game. He got up to go take a leak. While he was gone I was looking around and noticed a HS Annual on his bookshelf.
I went to look at it wanting to see all the pictures and articles for old time sake. As soon as I opened it I saw it was MY Annual! I quickly returned it to the shelf and sat back quietly. I never said a word. A short while later he had to go pee again. When he did, I got up, grabbed MY Annual and a huge solid crystal ash trash in the shape of The State of Texas that was on the coffee table and slipped out the front door. He didn't call till the next day. When he did, he said, "You figured it out didn't you?" I said, "Sure did a$$ho**!" LMAO!
p.s.s. A few months later he was over at my house and when I wasn't looking, he stole his crystal ashtray back. Too funny!
Sorry for the hijack folks. Back to thread topic. Come on kids, DITCH THE B****!
