p>The problem with liberals of E.L. Doctorow's ilk is that they
are too full of themselves and their perverted sense of
righteousness. I witnessed a similar occurrence at our recent
graduate commencement ceremony. But unlike Hofstra, we were honored
to have President George W. Bush speak to our graduating seniors.
Instead of boos, there were 30 minutes of nearly the entire
assembly cheering and giving standing ovations and not just to the
President, but to the subjects of his inspirational speech...the
parents, the graduates, and the many men and women sacrificing for
our country. Hundreds left early to line the street and catch a
glimpse of the motorcade. The Democrats need to wake up and realize
that today's youth are not inspired by their constant
negativism.

Among other interesting observations, you made one that the Bush
team could develop into a campaign sound bite, such as:
p>"The same people who accused Ronald Reagan of lying about
Communism are now accusing George Bush of lying about Islamic
terrorism. Vote for the party that has consistently defended
America's interests and freedom: Republican."
