My family protested my nephew's graduation from Notre Dame

We were so pissed that aunts, uncles, and grandparents could not get tickets.


But we were so glad my nephew and his brothers and his parents got to see President Obama.

1. Congrats to your Nephew.
Who protested? And -- -how did your nephew feel about this?

That said -- I think it is sad that a family would use the joy of a child graduating from such a prominant school to push a BS agenda. Wherever my nieces and Nephews go to college, I would never do that to them --- this is about the kids, after all. They did the had work to achieve this degree.
