No sense taking a chance with feisty old white men. You never know what they are going to say.

#3 The Champ is most comfortable with feckless, cheering, youth audiences in safe, controlled, liberal academic environments. Like him, most [students] have yet to hold a job or pay their own way. Their concept of the future goes little beyond Thursday's midterm, or Saturday's keg party. No shame to be had, we were all like them once, and we might all of taken the candy and admired the righteous rhetoric of a popular clownish leader. Thankfully however, we survived our youth and are now adults, and able to sort his rubbish out for what it is.

I just hope few will take the candy, leave the swings, and jump into his clown car.

#4 The late Neil Armstrong once lambasted the administration for its space-program fecklessness during a Congressional hearing. Although a one-off occurrence, I suspect the White House didn't want a repeat.

#5 Probably didn't want Buzz to bust any conspiracy nuts in the nose during the event. Buzz, you rock.
