As I type this, Obama is either speaking to the graduating class at ASU or he just finished. Of course, his presence caused great traffic snarls, but I suppose that would be the situation for any president appearing at ASU.  No one was allowed to bring containers of any kind inside the stadium. However, when they got inside, everyone found out that bottles of water cost 5.50 EACH! Considering they started arriving around 1 pm in the hot Arizona sun, I sure hope everyone stayed well-hydrated and safe.

I confess that I didn’t watch the television coverage of Obama’s visit. I would hope he would encourage the grads to start on a path of self-reliance, and to accept responsibility for their prior actions. Then again, the Democrats aren’t accepting any responsiblity for the financial problems that started two years ago when they took control of the Legislature. I mean, how can Obama tell the seniors that they are responsible for their futures when he and Pelosi refuse to accept any responsiblity for their past actions?
