You are exactly correct about the story but I think that the University was, the University to the south of Northwestern, i.e. the University of Chicago. Those individuals (there were apparently quite a few) showed great courage.

Found reference here.

The former president told students it was his hope that as they went through life they would use their education to draw the distinction between the trend lines and the headlines.

Trend Line & Headlines?? .. What is this the new DNC key words??

``But ... you are less likely to vote and participate in politics than previous generations of young Americans. And that's a big mistake because it does make a difference,'' he said.

Pushing for votes huh??

``It was nice to hear something of substance and not just rah-rah words of advice. He made me think about what he was saying. It's a speech I'll definitely remember,'' she said.

$10 Bucks says a year from now .. she won't remember a thing he said

Yea, like Clinton cares about any of the people he speaks to or supposedly "for". Give me a break.

[CommandoFrank]

The trend line is..

Hey, I never thought Clinton would be so brave to tell they to go with the trend.

The trend line is that the country is going more conservative...

[The Wizard]

This asshole wants to be king of the world.....

[The Wizard]

[Gritty]

He has his facts all wrong on SARS. Anybody who spent more than 10 minutes on Free Republic would be more knowlegeable on the subject than him.

No doubt none of this clueless crowd noticed, or cared. All they wanted was their diplomas and to get out of town.

Will this buffoon ever go away and leave the rest of us to a decent and well-deserved peace?

The Toon should participate in life without the possibility of parole.

"A citizen of the world."

A citizen of nothing.

[Graewoulf]

I am stunned that in this speech, IMPEACHED sick willy did not mention "family values." When he was democrat's President for eight loooooooong years, he spoke of "family values" often in his speeches.

Gee, and here I thought we were citizens of the USA.

``The trend line is, we are growing more interdependent.

IOW, it takes a planet!

Hey, where does Clinton get off wearing that robe? Isn't this a phoney photo op? I am shocked, and offended by this I tell you.

[solo gringo]

The drugs,Booze and V/D has turned clinton brain to water IMHO.
