HOW MUCH YOU WANNA BET YOUR COMMENCEMENT SPEAKER IS A LIBERAL? 

By Neal Boortz

The Young America's Foundation has been keeping tabs on who is being invited to speak at commencement ceremonies around the country ... notice that I am not one of them ... and it won't shock you to hear that far more liberals are invited to speak at graduation ceremonies than conservatives. Why is this? Well it is very simple: liberals are preaching to the choir where as conservatives are more likely to spill the beans about the realities facing these fresh graduates.

So here is the list of just some of the liberals invited to speak at the nation's top colleges this year:

President Barack Obama, Notre Dame
Vice President Joe Biden, Wake Forest University
Hillary Clinton, New York University
Rahm Emanuel, George Washington University
Matt Lauer, Harvard University
Katie Couric, Princeton University
Ellen DeGeneres, Tulane University
Deval Patrick, governor of Massachusetts, MIT
Steven Chu, secretary of Energy Department, California Institute of Technology
Oprah Winfrey, Duke University
Wynton Marsalis, Northwestern University
Vicente Fox, Emory University
Gwen Ifill, Georgetown University
Suze Orman, University of Illinois
Tom Brokaw, Fordham University

Now, only five recognizable conservatives were selected to speak at the nation's top colleges this year:

Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.), Miami University
Laura Bush, Southern Methodist University
Rep. Jack Kingston (R-Ga.), University of Georgia
Judge J. Harvie Wilkinson III, University of Virginia
U.S. Court of Appeals Judge Morris Arnold, University of Arkansas
