    McIdiot!

    I can't believe that this guy actually teaches philosophy on the university level! So glad am I that I didn't spend the thousands and thousands of dollars in tuition required of studies at this university.

    This is so ridiculous. What an honor to have any president come and speak at any commencement ceremony! These silly catholics, with all their religious, political nonsense, have ruined it for the students of Notre Dame.

    This reminds me of the the time that America "boycotted" the Olympic games because of Cold War silliness. When will these idiots ever learn...
