Even the guy on O'Reilly, that signed the petition to keep her from getting her honorary degree from BC, said he wants her to come speak...

He doesn't have any problem with having her do THAT...but, he WON'T stand for her getting an honorary degree...because, he said, it would reflect badly on an Jesuit College that believes in peace, not war.

He also admitted under O'Reilly's grilling, that he does NOT consider Rice a patriot.

So...even the ones signing the petition feel the same way as your daughter...but, they just don't want her to have the degree...which I, for one, thinks stinks out loud!!!

No disrespect meant for your daughter or your religion...but, I am embarrassed that one of our countrie's colleges would treat our Sec. of State this way..

My goodness, she is going around the world trying to work on PEACE...she isn't the Sec. of Defense, after all...

I don't think there was ever a time in the past 30 years where people in any administration speaking on college campuses didn't generate some controversy. I think it would be odd if the controversy didn't arise, especially in time of war. It isn't the University that's objecting to Sec'y Rice getting the degree--the University asked her to receive the degree. Two members of the faculty are objecting and writing petitions.
