President Biden appeared before media at the White House yesterday to give out the Presidential Medal of Arts to several people.

First was singer/songwriter Bruce Springsteen. Whether it be ‘Darkness of the Edge of Town’ or ‘Born to Run’ or any number of great albums that SPringsteen released in his earlier career, these songs have become the life soundtrack for a generation of Americans.

Before giving out the medals, Biden made a strange comment about women’s hair. He can be quoted as saying…
“Any woman who I’m giving one medal to, please don’t get angry with me if I mess up your hair,”
