The roster of lectures at George Washington University ^[1] is about as balanced as an MSNBC broadcast. This year, the university brought in:

• William Jacobsen, advisor to Colin Powell during the Reagan years;
• David Plouffe, campaign manager, Barack Obama for president-2008; and
• New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman.

Why not invite:

• U. S. Sen. James Inhofe, R-Okla.;
• U. S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn.; or
• Frank Gaffney of the Center for Security Policy, who also served in the Reagan Administration?

Not bloody likely.
