Bush at LSU graduation.
It's been over for a little while, but I got a report from a friend who was at the LSU graduation where Bush spoke. News reports mentioned a standing ovation or two, but didn't mention that they were apparently overmatched by negative reaction.

Bush made a comment to the effect that he was sacrificing a lot by being their because he was missing his own daughters graduations. He received a long standing booing from most of the crowd.

1. Why the hell would you get someone so controversial to speak at graduation
Granted I would love for John Kerry to be my graduation speaker but frankly I don't think it's appropriate.

2. An appropriate Southeastern Conference school welcome!
Good to see LSU making the SEC proud.
