UC Berkeley To Charge Seniors To Attend Their Own Graduation So They Can Hear Nancy Pelosi Speak
2014-05-01
Unbelievable, but maybe it will reduce some platitudinally-induced global drivel.

I'll leave it to our more lyrically-oriented readers to submit ......Priceless thingies.

#13  She's the perfect political storm,
A hack since she lived in a dorm,
The safest seat-warmer,
The perfect conformer,
A nightmare who runs true to form.

#12  For a commie-bastid institution, the fee to "cover costs" sounds... capitalistic.

#11  ...there are just some things that money can't buy. On the other hand, this "fix" may be achievable.

#10  I didn't read the article, but figure the charge will be assessed to all seniors, regardless of whether they attend graduation, just a $10 surtax on their tuition.

#9  10 bucks apiece? Does she need another face-lift?

#8  I graduated in 1970 from Berkeley. After taking my last final, packed up my sea bag and headed back up to Alaska to work.
Four years was enough, though the college of civil engineering was great.

I could not imagine listening to that traitorous witch for an hour.

#7  I'd pay to not hear her speak.

#6  There once was a house who wanted a party
But the owner said guests would be tardy
You'd charge them 10 clams
Their reason to be shim sham
And tutt the décor as quite gaudi.

#5  Why is it, that every time I hear about Nancy Pelosi, Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon" album comes to mind ?

#3  All attending submit to a grope
As nonworking dogs check for hope.
Please remain in your seat
While she washes your feet
And remember to smile at the scope.

#2  If she was speaking at mine, I wouldn't go. Then I'd take that ten bucks, save it and, when she croaks, go out and buy a six pack and piss on her grave.

#1  Proof she does not belief in free speech.
