Liberal McCarthyism

This is an excerpt from a recent commencement speech delivered by a famous person. Read it and then try to guess who it might be:

"It is just a modern form of McCarthyism," [he] said of university censorship of conservatives. "Think about the irony: In the 1950s, the right wing was attempting to repress left wing ideas. Today, on many college campuses, it is liberals trying to repress conservative ideas even as conservative faculty members are at risk of becoming an endangered species"

"And that is probably nowhere more true than it is here in the Ivy League..."

"In the 2012 presidential race, according to Federal Election Commission data, 96% of all campaign contributions from Ivy League faculty and employees went to Barack Obama," he said. "There was more disagreement among the old Soviet politburo than there is among Ivy League donors."


Any guesses? Well click through to find out, because you won't believe me if I just tell you.
