LOL She'll be working, and it's only for a couple of months... Did you see this? College Host Chides Cheney Tuesday, April 27, 2004; Page A07 Vice President Cheney was rebuked by his host yesterday after lambasting Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) in a speech at a private college in Missouri. Fletcher M. Lamkin, president of Westminster College in Fulton, Mo., e-mailed students, staff and faculty shortly after Air Force Two headed back to Washington. "I must admit that I was surprised and disappointed that Mr. Cheney chose to step off the high ground and resort to Kerry-bashing for a large portion of his speech," Lamkin wrote. "The content and tone of his speech was not provided to us prior to the event -- we had only been told the speech would be about foreign policy, including issues in Iraq." The speech was a Bush-Cheney campaign event, but Westminster officials said they had been led to expect academically oriented remarks. Cheney drew frequent applause and a standing ovation mid-speech. Lamkin invited Kerry to come and "make his views known." The Bush-Cheney campaign said in a statement that "robust debate about how best to protect our country from the threat of global terror is central to this election." -- Mike Allen © 2004 The Washington Post Company
