The graduates who boycotted the ceremony held a prayer service at the Grotto, out of respect for the university.
That's a good way to protest, I admire those who chose to do this. Interesting, though, that 12,000 people went to the graduation ceremony. Why weren't there 12,000 students at the grotto if this was such a universally upsetting situation to these graduates?
IF JFK allowed it he was wrong...Problem is you condone it but claim to believe in the constitution. Once again, you find a way to give Dubya a pass..Oh yeah, you didn't vote for him

[quote=Johnny B. Fury;8854948]Of course it's way over your head to understand that life begins with a single cell. Only a liberal could revise biology to fit their agenda. Very sad indeed.
"life begins with a single cell" is trumped by the rights of a woman to govern her own body. period. you want to pound it into anyone head that it is murder, that is opinion. abortion is sad, outlaw it and see how many women die from back alley abortions. will you stand up for the women who die from unsafe abortions like you do for a single cell?
If Obama was not such a egotist, he could have easily declined the offer to speak and be awarded an honorary degree, or simply withdrawn his commitment when he learned that his attendance was causing the university to be in the center of a swirl of controversy.
His presence proved he has the strenght to face adversity head on. To do otherwise would be saying he agreed with the protestors, they were right regarding the abortion issue and he was wrong. He does not believe they are right. He stands before us all who he professed himself to be to the people of the United States. The University of Notre Dame knew exactly who he is and what his beliefs are when they asked him to speak and, know full well, they still asked him to speak.
MM, your personal hatred of the Obama's has been and continues to be transparent every time you post something about them. I am curious to know what you think they did to you? Somebody didn't get a promotion, a speaking gig went to the 'wrong' person, someone's family member/neighbor didn't get a job....But, not so curious, I want to discuss it with you.
I am watching B. Hussein Obama's commencement speech at Notre Dame, and I was glad to hear people stand up and shout. I normally do not condone that kind of stuff, but what our President supports is inhuman (no, I don't mean inhumane). He supports killing a baby after it is born (partial birth abortion) just because the mother decides that a baby is too much of a burden to her lifestyle. Abortion is an unnatural, and selfish act. More selfish than anything else in the world.
Some people have decided that getting arrested would be worth making a point, and I congratulate them. They are doing what is right. I would do the same if he was at my school.
So thanks to all of you who interrupted a man who supports the murder of millions of babies. You are true heroes. Just as Rosa Parks refused to move, it is time that we refuse to move. We also have morals on our side as did Dr. King and Ms. Parks. We will win, and we will not be silenced, because we must speak for those who never will be able to.
Please DO NOT compare your "struggle" with the Civil Rights struggle that Miss Rosa Parks and Dr King and others fought for. There is REALLY no comparison. It's downright insulting.

Oh this explains a lot..You're still wet behind the ears. You condone Bush by intentionally overlooking his transgressions. You jumped 50 years in the past to try and nail a democrat.
It's like watching the Jonestown debacle all over again, another famous socialist movement go awry.
