Origins:   Although this much-forwarded piece was indeed penned by syndicated radio talk show host Neal Boortz, it was never given by him as a commencement address at a university or college, nor was it written with that intent. Mr. Boortz wrote it as a protest of his never having been invited to deliver a commencement speech, despite decades of hosting radio talk shows. As he says, "The final straw was when Kermit the Frog got an invitation from a Northeast college."

He has delivered the speech on his radio show and used in his 1998 book, The Terrible Truth About Liberals.

Neil gave this at Texas A&M

This is one of the best, well-informed, and honest commencement speeches I have ever heard or read. In this time of turmoil and diversity at his own alma mater, Texas A&M, whose faculty vision is to turn a wonderful university into another Cal-Berkley or UCLA by 2020 (arrrhhhhggggg).

This message should be required reading for all graduating college seniors.

What a superb speech

According to debate coach up is not up and down is not down. Those are unsupported allegations. Debate Coach doesn't seem to be very bright.

Neil Boortz, on the other hand, is a great speaker and his speech truly resonates. I think it's worth reading again and again. He nails it with that speech.

WHAT A FUCKING JACKASS!!!!!

"God, i feel so stupid"

In addition to God, what other fairy tales do you believe in? Santa Claus? The Easter bunny? The Tooth Fairy? You're nuttier than Mr. Peanut!!!

Shit. BA, everything you say is a lie unless by mistake, you tell the truth.
You even lie to yourself.

an injury to one is an injury to all.

' Liars cannot be trusted, even when the liar is the president of the United States'

this belongs in the -Bush Press Conference: "I Am A Lying

Homophobic War Criminal"- thread

and I just thought you were dull, BA; you're also a lieing bastard.

Where's my brain?"

and other items on this thread and others that are obviously not written by the authors named and are nothing more than the same (as you regard it ) "spam" that you erased. How about some consistency? Is that too much to ask?
