There is no way that I would miss my college graduation because I disagreed with the choice of speaker. Those of you who have graduated university should be able to attest to that once in a lifetime feeling of accomplishment that you feel at the ceremony surrounded by fellow grads and family. There are other ways to voice your displeasure with president Obama.

That's because it's all about you and your silly sentiments, rather then living life according to what's right by God and your fellow man.

IOW, your happy feelings are more important than the persecution of the pre-born and standing up to a leftist goon high priest of of Murder Inc.

Not me. It's just graduation, for pete's sake. I had a very nice graduation (from a prestigious university, with family and friends), and forgot it all about 24 hours after.

I fact, I remember the graduate "graduation" far more vividly: I went to the registrar's office, where a secretary pulled the diploma from a metal filing cabinet. Congratulations, she said. Thanks, I replied.

Graduates need to get over themselves.

Sorry ... I disagree with you. I have "graduated university" twice, and knew ahead of time who the commencement speaker would be. First time, speaker was an inoffensive nonentity. Second time, speaker was moderately famous (for honourable reasons) and I very much looked forward to meeting him. Had the speaker in either instance been a slug like Zero, I would not have attended.
