I know that just about everyone I know and love (besides my dear husband) received some degree or another from the illustrious Brigham Young University (including both of my dear parents, who were professors there and retired from there). This is not meant to be an offense to you... I'm just becoming less and less interested in your University.... which is difficult... since they've been on my very-dark-if-not-completely-black list for some time now...
I just heard the SUPER DUPER news today--Dick Cheney himself is going to be speaking at BYU's commencement this year.
Our dear Vice President was available, of course, because NO ONE ELSE ON THE PLANET WAS INTERESTED IN BOOKING HIM!!! Seriously, people! Dick Cheney? The guy who tried to convince the American public that TORTURE was okay? The guy who stands beside our dopey president as he breaks one federal or international law after another?? The guy who leaked info about a CIA agent?? And does ANYONE besides me remember Haliburton???
Oh, but wait. He's a Republican. And this is, after all, the land of the Blind Republican Sheep. He could eat your children in front of you, but he's a Republican. Therefore, we must admire him and shout his praises. And maybe even teach a few Sunday School lessons about his endless virtues...

Anne....I may not agree with you- I actually don't even have an opinion on who speaks at commencement, since I only really went to convocation at BYU....BUT, I do think you're funny. AND AND AAAAAND, I admire your willingness to spew venom. A.N.Y.W.A.Y....not enough Anne in my life.
