When did you develop all this disdain for the children of the left? Does it include people like Noam Chomsky, Robert Reich and other left-wing intellectuals that supported Bernie and agree with the kids?

You always tout the fact you were at UC Berkeley in the 60s, of which I'm very envious, but the left today seems to be exactly the same left that I remember in the 60s, just a different generation and time period.

Does not the fact that so many great left-wing intellectuals hold the same feelings as the millennial's give you any pause?

I do not remember you thinking this way a few years ago.

Alex: "that actually is one of the positives of the left, i"

Wharf: "That's one of the negative of the children on the left. While Panetta was talking about the treason of asking Russia to hack us, the attention was on kids who thought this convention was about them. Bern down the mission, we've got a bowel movement happenin' here."
