Bush: Chosen as a Role Model?

Bush is coming to Miami Dade College Kendall Campus in Miami, to speak at the graduation ceremony on SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 2007.

The Worst. President. Ever. is a really terrible choice as a role model, don't you think?
I mean, what sort of advice do you suppose he has for the Class of ’07?

Please help us Un-Welcome Bush and sign our petition:

But they're both big on ed-ja-ka-shun.

... graduation pep-talk. The one where he gloats about how he was a C-student, and now he's President while everybody who slaved and strived to get a degree now has to cater to his every whim. Sometimes he gets some poor PhD up on the podium with him, just so he can point out "look which of us is the more powerful!".

"The public education system in America is one of the most important foundations of our democracy. After all, it is where children from all over America learn to be responsible citizens, and learn to have the skills necessary to take advantage of our fantastic opportunistic society."

"You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test."

"One of the great things about books is sometimes there are some fantastic pictures."

"Then you wake up at the high school level and find out that the illiteracy level of our children are appalling."

"We want our teachers to be trained so they can meet the obligations, their obligations as teachers. We want them to know how to teach the science of reading. In order to make sure there's not this kind of federal—federal cufflink."

A lot of the comments on the petition are wonderful. Who sez South FL is apathetic?
