Not all at Y. back Cheney

I want to voice my opinion over the recent announcement that Vice President Dick Cheney will speak at my university's commencement. Please let the public know that not all students at BYU support this idea. I personally find Dick Cheney to be a morally reprehensible man. He has lied to the American public a number of times, including the Iran-Contra affair and this unfortunate war in Iraq. I do not think Mr. Cheney should be a representative of our school.

The LDS Church and Brigham Young University claim to be politically neutral; however, when we invite such a polemic figure to speak at our university we cannot hold that position. We ought to have invited someone who can offer moral and spiritual advice to the graduating class, not a man who is a combative politician.
