If you've posted in forums you might remember writing some decent responses. I usually spend a lot of time polishing my discussion forum responses depending on the subject or who I am talking to. Often I want to remember what I said about something, but finding the original post can be difficult. So it makes sense to capture the better responses for later review.

Why we're going to be OK. (Politics Forum)
"E.L. Doctorow, one of the most celebrated writers in America, was nearly booed off the stage at Hofstra University Sunday when he gave a commencement address lambasting President George W. Bush and effectively calling him a liar."

Interesting read. I especially got a rise out of the final line in this article:
"I thought this was a totally appropriate place to talk about politics because that's the world our students are entering," said sociology professor Cynthia Bogard. "I only wish their parents had provided them a better role model."
What cheek! I can only hope my own kids turn out to be like these Hofstra kids. Thankfully, the parents were a better role model. Or maybe she had Michael Moore in mind.
Anyway, it's nice to see the shoe on the other foot considering that it's usually conservatives getting the boo's on campus.
