I remember when this pervert invited himself to the Northwestern University graduation. One of the girls that graduated got her diploma but refused to shake his filthy hand, and side stepped the president. At the time I thought, that girl is going far in life. She has a lot of common sense. He stood there with his dork a sh--y grin on his face.

It was too much for him to note, when speaking of "their generation", that this very generation just fought a stunning victory and some think of THEM as the greatest generation.

No, it wouldn't do to address something of substance, (despite the twit at the end's comment), and instead exhort them to join.....The Peace Corps.

Found reference here.
