As an earlier poster said, he’s free all he wants to come on campus and talk in the quad.

To invite him to speak at commencement is an insult to the intelligence of the student body.

Oh lordy, it’s Miss Manners.

We not only have the freedom to disrupt his speech, it’s our duty to do so. It’s called dissent. Look it up.

gg and bert left at 85 & 92…..you guys are carrying their water for them……

If GG says anything else but yes, he’s being disingenuous. Of course I have a right to not give my hard earned dollars to this person. Since the University is using money derived in part from my tuition, I have a right to say ‘no, you may not spend it on that.’ That’s the whole purpose of the SGA, which I suspect was not consulted in this, and for campus-wide votes, for which there’s more than enough time to set one up in this instance.

I am not advocating the removal of the right of Rove to speak in any circumstance. I’m standing behind the student’s rights to have a say in their graduation requirement. Rove is free to fly there and go to their quad and stand on one of the benches there (or whatever they have that passes for a quad) and deliver his speech to anyone who wishes to listen during the graduation. But if the students do not wish to pay to listen to it, their rights should be respected as well.

Of course, good_golly and bert aren’t here to debate, just to stir shit, hence why they stand so firmly for the excrement that Rove wishes to shove down these student’s throats in exchange for their hard earned dollars…

Wonder what possible inspiration this man could offer those students — instead, if he must attend, he should do the listening while they do the speaking.

No wonder he doesn’t believe in an afterlife — he knows where he’d be spending it.

bc’s a conservative, mocking the dead is part of his “character”.

here’s another recent example:

there will be more to come. death and misery is so funny to a conservative. that’s why “the half hour news hour” is such a success.

wait, it wasn’t a success, was it?

Rove has a right to do whatever he wants within the scope of the law, which includes his speaking out.

Good Golly: do I not have the right to refuse to _pay_ him for speaking out?

The REAL bert convy had much more class, that’s for sure…
it’s a shame to make a mockery out of a dead man…

hi bc, saw this pic (and article) about you on line:

this is you right?

dude, no offense but you should think about losing some weight.

eh?

I’ve seen infantile trolls before but this “Bert Convy” person certainly takes the first prize.
