I disagree with you.

A commencement speech is the perfect opportunity to prepare them for the real world.

A good “bop on the head” may be the only thing to shake indoctrination and ignorance out of their mushy minds.

If a man is a conservative at 20 he has no heart if however at 40 he is still a liberal he has no brain

Winston Churchill

some of these people have 20 years or less to get it right and some of the faculty have not after 40 or 60 years.

the kids are there to get a diploma and graduate, not get bopped over the head with a political message.

Hello! That's exactly what liberals have been delivering at commencements for a long time now.

Wow, This sounds like something Ayn Rand herself might have written!

Not this part: "You have a right to live free, and to the results of 60% - 75% of your labor."

...not get bopped over the head with a political message..

YOU THINK FOUR YEARS OF LIBERAL, COMMIE BRAINWASHING IS OK, BUT A POLITICAL MESSAGE THE LITTLE BASTARDS CAN’T HANDLE?

"...i dont think this is the right forum for this type of speech.

What better time and place to hear the truth after 4 - 5 years of liberal indoctrination?

A speech like this could stop many a starry eyed budding liberal from throwing their lives away.

It would be to their benefit if each graduate was required to hear (and understand) it before they are sent out into the real world.

i never said anything about it being ok that kids are being brainwashed at college. i fought the ridiculous bias at college my entire college career.

what is not ok is for a commencement speaker to get up there and start preaching his politics to a graduating class that is there to get a diploma. for every conservative speaker, there are 10 liberal ones. i had the unpleasant experience of sitting through an awful wacked out liberal commencement address. its not the place for it.

Too bad. I’d pay to see him give it under those conditions just to watch the faculty squirm.

Why? Too many young minds filled with liberal mush? No, sir... they should have heard this wisdom in 4th grade.

Great read! Here’s to hoping there’s a video out there of this.

Ripped from your tag line:

OSAMA BIN LADEN IS DEAD! There, I said it. Prove me wrong.

I'm digging out the hospital records as I write this, but it appears that he had extensive plastic surgery and language lessons and is now running for President as the Democrat nominee. At the moment, this is just an assertion: birth certificate and hospital records to follow...

Boortz is a pretty hard-core, straight-up, small-l, libertarian.
