Seems to me that all those Kansas State students
who were applauding Bush and his policies should drop out of college immediately and sign up for Iraq/Iran.

8. No, they were real students

I was there, protesting, and they were real KSU students. It's sad and makes me want to :puke:

Here in Kansas, it's only too easy to find freaks to willingly support THE Freak.



On Edit, see our protest pics here:

10. Were any that asked questions "real students?"
I would suspect that the deck was stacked, and the students were "extras", like in a movie set, and the soft-ball question tossers were sanitized by the Bushies.

11. Supposedly at least 3 of them were KSU students
and of the 3, 1 asked a 'tough' question re: cuts to financial aid programs.

Hey, for Kansans, 1 out of 3 isn't bad. Sadly.

2. Do they know that their financial aid has been cut?
This worries me personally as a college student, and it should for any undergrad or grad student who is not independently wealthy.

3. I heard that group was "invitation only" - Yellow elephants, maybe?

All these events are staged - the whole thing is as phony as the person addressing the crowd.

5. When I was in college
If the President had shown up (Nixon) I would have clapped and cheered like crazy and I didn't even like him. But I would have been excited about even seeing a sitting president. I guess I was a bit star struck.

I've matured now.

7. did you hear about the person who asked.............
....if he had seen Brokeback Mountain? What the hell kind of question is that to ask a President?

Forget about people's civil rights violations by the administration, this guy wants to know if he's seen the gay cowboy movie!!

You're right..........if they can't think of a better question than that, a college education is definitely wasted on these people!!!
