And the ***-d*mned idiot nearly destroyed America and the Republican Party with his socialist policies. His insistence that banks give mortgages to illegal aliens (based on a legal interpretation from Clinton, to be fair) is what caused a huge portion of the mess we’re in.

[count-your-change]

Yep, the very same. As the captain of the Titanic said,
“Trust me, I’ve had a lot of training”.

[The Comedian]

Right. And we're supposed to trust this idiot organization with turning out our best and brightest? After Barry gets an obviously affirmative action PhD?

We've established they know nothing about law and now finance. What other Cracker Jack box degrees are they scamming tuition for?

Harvard should close and sell the campus as an ornate whore house. That's all it is now anyway.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Meh. Anyone ever associated with Boston college life would know the "tie-on-the-door knob" signal ... but now days, I understand they just use a condom. 8-D

When the dorm room's a-rockin, don't come a-knockin?

or

When the temporarily-assigned college-affiliated student housing sleeping quarters are presenting quasi-harmonic(*) motion, please refrain from striking the usually wooden, but sometimes likely to be metal or metal-and-wood, hinged entryway in a rhythmic, but such rhythm not necessarily in resonance with the harmonic motion of the room, fashion, in order to gain the attention of the occupants? /Harvard>

Cheers!

(*) or hormonic, actually.

"hormonic"

HAHAHAHA!

Nah, I don’t think it makes us bad people at all. Besides, laughter is really good for your health, and I’ve been laughing about this all morning.

[Daffynition]

Heck. I’m so pumped up by Harvard’s good luck, I’m going out to buy a PowerBall ticket.

It's very hard to sympathize with them. They have a $34 BILLION endowment. Most Universities would be lucky to even have a third of that.

[Daffynition]

I agree, as noted above. ;-D

[Tax Government]

They should have hired a team of Harvard MBA’s and finance professors to manage their money. Oh, wait...

[Daffynition]

All the *good* ones have been recruited as czars in the Zero administration. Harvard was left with the dregs. ;)

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I’m crying a river for Harvard—NOT!!

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

A liberal and his money are soon parted.

[Daffynition]

LOL ...that would be the Charles River, to be exact. ;P
