welcome Gonzo

Cambridge, Mass. – Alberto Gonzales was confronted by student protesters and forced to leave through a back door on Saturday during a visit to Harvard Law School for his 25th reunion. After two weeks clinging to save his job and defending allegations that he fired eight U.S. Attorneys for political reasons, what might have been a relaxed day of reminiscing with old classmates became instead yet another reminder that both his job and his reputation are in serious jeopardy.

The Attorney General was on campus, unannounced to students, to deliver a lunchtime speech. But word quickly spread that a suspicious motorcade had been spotted by the campus center, and by the time Gonzales and his fellow classmates assembled on the law library steps for their class photo, a group of current students were there to greet him, having donned black hoods and orange jumpsuits. As the photographer told the class of 1982 to smile and say "cheese," the students yelled out that saying "torture," "resign"

Typical libeal thugs. Nice that his job is to protect the rights of those slops and dolts. Wasting thier time in college - why not go right ot work for moveon.org.
You post this like youare proud of them......figures.

This is the trash that needs to be taken off campuses and room made for people who want an educatin and cannot afford one. Probably a bunch of "liberal arts" students. Liberal arts - for those too stupid to take real courses.

Now, now, Tom, don't use too broad a brush there. Speaking as a former political science major (which I guess would fall under that heading), I'd say it has more to do with Harvard than with liberal arts as a discipline. The college that I went to (along with falconridge)(Claremont McKenna College) was (at least at that time) about as conservative as they come, but the students were overwhelmingly political science or economics majors.

Shouldn't these students be charged with one of them new fangled "hate crime" laws enacted to protect minority groups in this country?

And isn't it odd how minorities appointed to powerful positions are worshipped as role-models when they have a (D) next to their names, but when they are part of the dreaded (R) they suddenly can do no right?

In the liberal dictionary this is referred to as the Clarence Thomas rule.

Didn't you know that the R's had sold-out? That they are traitors to their group? Because if you don't think like the group, well... then you're not open-minded.

"You! Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"

We don't need no education
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.
