Andy Card ‘Loudly Booed By Hundreds’ at UMass Commencement

Maybe there is hope for America yet:

President Bush’s former chief of staff Andrew Card was loudly booed by hundreds of students and faculty members as he rose to accept an honorary degree at the University of Massachusetts on Friday.

The boos and catcalls - including those from faculty members who stood onstage with Card - drowned out Provost Charlena Seymour’s remarks as she awarded the honorary doctorate in public service.

The AP report says one faculty member on the stage with Card held up a sign: “Card - no honor - no degree.” Grads held up yellow signs that read, “Honor Grads, Dis-Card.”
