<div class="posttitle">Bushes not attending daughters' graduations</div> 

<p>President Bush and Laura Bush <a title="CNN.com - Bushes decline twin daughters' graduation ceremonies - May 6, 2004" href="http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/05/06/bush.twins.graduations/index.html">will not be attending the graduations of their two daughters this spring</a> because they want to avoid disruptions for the other families and graduates.<br />
<blockquote><br />
They want the focus to be on the graduates and their families and not how long they're going to have to wait to go through the metal detectors.</p>

<p>--<a href="http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/05/06/bush.twins.graduations/index.html">CNN</a><br />
</blockquote><br />
This is basically the same reason President Bush gives for not attending the funerals of soldiers.  The Left gets up in arms over that and says the President doesn't care about the dead soldiers.  </p>

<p>Can we then assume that the Left believes this is proof that President Bush doesn't care about his daughters?</p>
