Weekend Captionfest III Democratic presidential hopeful, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., receives a honorary degree during the commencement ceremony at Wesleyan University in Middleton, Conn., Sunday, May 25, 2008. Filling in for Sen. Edward M. Kennedy, D-Mass., and tying himself to the family's legacy, Obama urged college graduates to "make us believe again" by dedicating themselves to public service. (AP Photo/Chris Carlson) |

Must be for adding those additional seven states to the union recently!

May 25, 2008 - 23:53 ET by Noel Sheppard24 hours after falsely claiming Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez came to power while George W. Bush was in the White House -- as well as repeatedly referring to Sunrise, Florida, as "Sunshine" -- Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama receives an honorary degree from Wesleyan University in Middleton, Conn. As the commencement ceremony draws to a conclusion, Obama prays nobody asks him to name the capitals of America's 57 states.
Beautiful
May 26, 2008 - 20:41 ET by geoff.galeMay I suggest an alternative last sentence, however?
As the honourary sash is placed over Senator Obama's head, he lowers his head and prays that the sash doesn't snag on his ears and cause a scene on the podium.

But who will pay the public service salaries?
May 25, 2008 - 23:56 ET by mom_roxYeah, just like Michelle said (paraphrasing): Don't go into corporate America. Don't go into corporate law (Hillary Clinton) or hedge-fund management (Chelsea Clinton).

Hail, the Chief
May 26, 2008 - 09:49 ET by badger.Just another fake dog and pony show folks, with all the bells and whistles, ruffles and flourishes, many more will follow. I'm sure Obama swaggered his pompous behind all the way to the stage, actually believing that he is deserving of this honorary degree.
Getting in some practice/rehearsal time in for the already planned, real inauguration ceremony on 20 Jan. If everything goes according to plan, Obama will continue being showered with numerous other accolades/degrees/honors/. As was his other liberal Democratic predecessors, Carter/Clinton/Gore. So many that he will need a huge library with 1000's of square feet just to house them all.

Order yours today. Delivery is set for January 2009.
This morning there was a clip on one of the news shows...
May 26, 2008 - 10:58 ET by Prester John....in which Obama said to the graduates, "In a time of war, you must work for peace".
Funny, I thought in a time of war you work for victory, but then again this is not FDRs or Harry Truman's Democratic Party.

Heck, why not, they gave my ignorant wife a degree from Prinzdon. I'll tell 'em to go into public service. Them guilty white folks 'ill fall for that line, big time.

NEVER,NEVER trust a "liberal"
No surprise
May 26, 2008 - 11:36 ET by BobAnthonyA Marxist speaking at a communist run college like Wesleyan. Symbolic don't you think?
Oh and to the staff, Wesleyan is in Middletown, CT, not Middleton. That happens to be the surname of CT Public Radio talker Faith, who like any NPRer is weird and leftist.
Middletown by the way is home to local radio station WMRD 1150, one of the few independently run radio stations in the country. And part of the commie crowd should like the programming--Stephanie Miller airs on that staiton. But so does to the chagrin of the Hippies and the Weslyanites, Michael Savage. WMRD serves Central CT (2500 watts day, 500 watts night). Its calls could mean Middle of the Radio Dial (of course with digital radios one can't tell).
Its sister station WLIS 1420 in Old Saybrook, covers the shoreline East of New Haven to near the Rhode Island Border (5,000 watts day, 500 night.) And as its calls suggest, the signal could reach across Long Island Sound.
With exception to some local election coverage, WLIS and WMRD air the same programs. When you see the sked of programs it's a wide variety.
I know, I had a job interview with the owner Don DeCesare, in Norwalk, a few years ago. I won't go into why a man who runs two stations up the line lives in Norwalk, CT. But boy is he rethnking things here.

Since we have no help from conservatives or republicans in congress or government, is there nothing that we can do ourselves to BRING sanity back into our culture.
