This story about Chris Hedges being booed off the stage while giving a commencement address really depressed me. I keep expecting to hear that it was not students but Republican dirty tricksters. Then I saw the one about the Dixie Chicks being booed again yesterday at an awards ceremony. I thought that was already over.
UPDATE: Steve Bates also suspects dirty tricks may have been involved in the Chris Hedges scene.

My mother noticed that GWB didn’t make any speeches himself. What a sad generation that does not yet know that it takes courage to say no and that cowardice is when you just go along.
The flowers remind me of the matilja poppies that have been blossoming around here.
