Bush Will Attend 3 Commencements, His Twins' Not Among Them

Mr. Family Values. What a freakin' liar. Bush has been saying for weeks that neither he nor Laura are going to attend their daughters' college graduation ceremonies because of the disruption it would cause for other graduates due to increased security requirements. Yet, Bush is attending 3 other college graduations instead of his daughters, including the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Louisiana State University, and Concordia University in Wisconsin.

Obviously, inconveniencing the families of graduates isn't the concern since Bush will be doing just that at the other graduations. And if the issue were Bush's fear of protests, sure, he won't get any at the Air Force Academy, but I'm not so sure about Louisiana State (and anyway, daughter one's graduation is at Yale, where there would be protests, but daughter 2 is at the U of Texas - is that really going to have any more protests than Louisiana State?)

And more importantly, if Bush is worried about protests and that's why he's not going, then he lied to us - and whether it's about his travel plans or WMD, I'm getting a little tired of this man's serial lies.

But most important of all, the man is blowing off his daughters' college graduation. And he wonders why they drink.
