Jeff Tiedrich - elderly golfer shits the bed in batshit CPAC speech
yesterday, a frail old man in serious cognitive decline managed to slip past his caregivers at the White House Home for the Aged, and wandered across town until he found himself at CPAC.
as he looked around, a dim memory was roused within the old mans long-gone mind.

meandering to the front of the hall, the old man got up on the stage, and, finding himself in front of a microphone, began to gibber incoherently.
