A Word from Neal at Graduation Time
Every year around this time Neal Boortz has a special message for all those graduating from institutions of higher learning. It is the Neal Boortz Commencement Speech.
You could describe this speech in many ways. You could call it crass, overbearing, mean-spirited, etc. For a recent graduate, you could simply call it essential. Whether you agree with his particular views of the concepts examined in the speech, they are accurately described. The difference is whether you think big government is a pro or a con. New grads, and many others, need to read this speech to get the anti big government argument, since they most likely did not hear this view from their professors.
If you haven't read this speech for yourself, it is worth a read. If you know a recent college grad, do them a favor and send them the link. They may thank you for it later.

Just a mini-brief comment that epitomizes my consternation at the confusion of "conservative" (traditional) vs. "libertarian".
Neil B.: "From the Liberals you will hear references to groups --The Blacks, The Poor, The Rich, The Disadvantaged, The Less Fortunate. From the Right you will hear references to individuals."
Nope, you'll never hear references to groups such as "gays" from the conservatives. (/irony)
