Sen. Fulbright: "Where is that"

Sen. Bush: "Senator, I am very glad you asked that question, because it shows something is happening to your memory, Yale having honored you two years ago with a doctor of laws degree."

Sen. Fulbright: "I just wanted to give the Senator from Connecticut an opportunity. . .
