Excellent judgement - He gets attacked by the leftoid nuts, he gains conservative credentials.

"Lack of judgement on his part for even accepting."

No, this was exactly the response he wanted - in hopes that we'd think he's a *real* conservative.

Shoot, by comparison to these goofballs, Li'l Chuckie Schumer is a "conservative!"

The reason he is considered a contender, by the MSM..and polls, is because of that disgusting saying that Senators are always using against President Bush..

that he is a "divider, not a uniter"...which means that they expect McCain to be so in the middle that this country will go down the drain, but with happy people...blech.

McCain is no better than Gore or Kerry would have been as POTUS...

" What exactly did McCain think would happen anyway....

Lack of judgement on his part for even accepting."

Well, he can play tapes to Conservative audiences of the liberal students booing him. Maybe he thinks it will give him some Conservative credentials (how he stood up to the Libs).

True.

Not to worry where Johnny is concerned. The Conservatives vote in, and are active in, the Primary process. He will not get the GOP nod; trust me.

Apparently it wasn't just students acting like asses, but some of the faculty as well. If I was a parent and knew about the immature, and disrespectful display by the faculty I would immediately cross this school off of any list that I would be willing to pay tuition to for my kids.

The reason why so many college kids are brain dead liberal robots, is because the teachers their parents pay are brain dead liberal robots.

You leave out the likelihood that the parents may be brain dead liberal robots as well. In this case that may describe the majority, few go to that school without knowing its reputation.

Beginning by singing a wistful folk tune calling for world peace, Rohe announced she had thrown out her prepared remarks...

Wow man!...That was uh, cool!"

'nuff said.

Probably the Vietnam vet offering a campaign speech opportunity to another Vietnam vet.

They are both pretty much the same politically...wishy washy!

C'mon Hildy, you ain't no spring chicken around here....Why do you think he spoke at Falwell's gig?

He's a phony like 99% of the rest of our gubbmint. If he is the pub nomination for 08 he isn't getting my vote. Be sure of that. I'm tired of phonies on both "sides of the aisle" and I truly believe nothing will change as long as we support this bread&circuses smoke and mirrors sham that used to be a REPUBLIC with our taxes.

Y'all better wake up to what's around the corner....

You know if the democrats in congress would just shut up and turn their backs every time a debate breaks out the Republicans could get a lot more done.

...."exactly the response he wanted"

I couldn't agree more, though it is humor at it's most ironic that this is the only method his campaign chairman could come up with to establish some credentials :).

An aside note possibly worth pondering....Bob Kerrey brought McPasty to a school he is now president of. He couldn't control the crowd, they acted shamfully and embarrased him in front of a former peer.

I can't help but wonder if a seed has been placed that will gnaw on him through his new career as being part of the problem that promoted and caused such degradation in the attitudes of Americas young adults.

I think that school is considerably more liberal than he is, if I remember right, he was supposed to be somewhat of a moderate-not 100% sure though.

It was a "Sister Souljah" moment. Expect more of them.

This is just McLame trying to establish some conservative bona fides. He may be fooling the media and the dopey college youngsters, but he's not kidding us.

Hard to know who to cheer for in this fight. But I must say that at point in history did the commencement speaker 'represent the views of the university' or other similar nonsense? Or are just admitting that their school has a social agenda and those who aren't anti-military, anti-life, anti-christian, anti-family, anti-democracy should just stay the hell out of NYC?

He was invited to speak at the college by his good friend, Bob Kerrey.

Kind of hard to feel sorry for McCookburger.

Osama bin Laden still has not been found, nor have those weapons of mass destruction

Now that these children are college graduates instead of college students I wonder how many of them will join the fight to accomplish these tasks? They should go track down some of the recruiters they have been banning from campus and join up.

Let's see how many of them can put their lives where their mouths are...
