BroKrap would complain if more Red-Rider BB rifles were produced.

I went to a small state college, and this woman spoke at my graduation. I must say, this is an advantage of going to a small state college. They won't get a turd like Brokaw or Michelle Obama, or Clinton to speak there. A little too far below their "station"...

But this woman, was interesting, down to earth, and...historic!

Tom Brokaw probably has quite a few guns at his Montana ranch.

Ya know, he bought that ranch knowing there was an adjacent (bow, iirc) hunting ranch next to it, and then wanted to shut the hunting facility in case an errant arrow ended up on his property.

Just read here last week roughly 80% are liberal, 20% are not considered liberal. Commencement speakers.

I would’ve walked out. Tom sounds like an old drunk.

I enjoyed listening to her, she was down to earth, and had a lot of humor in her address...and I remember she smiled a lot.

His philosophical retardation is showing.

Well, that was clear in 2008, on the eve of the election, with his stupid admission that "we [the press] really don't know much about Obama...".

As a managing editor at NBC, don't you think he could have gone after BHO to the same extent he did McCaniac, especially on the question of place of birth???

Contrary evidence never means much to these people because liberalism is a mental illness.

Here's the thing I don't get about Tom Brokaw. He's the one who wrote The Greatest Generation, which is probably more responsible than any other single source for engendering in the modern public the respect for the World War II generation that they so richly deserve. Surely, the author of that book must be aware that those great men used guns (and bombs, torpedoes, etc.) to defeat our country's enemies. Even if Brokaw himself doesn't like guns, can't he at least read his own book and realize how indispensable they were (and still are) to preserving our freedom?

Clearly old Brokaw wishes the colonists had no way to overthrow the King.

How did he give the whole commencement without using the letter L?

Tommy: either you’re stupid or you think we’re stupid.

Which is it?

Don’t know that ‘he’ doesn’t like them. For him. Us, on the other hand, not so much.

Oldest son is an Ole Miss grad.

He stopped contributing to the place years ago because of crap like this.
