Gonzo At Harvard Reunion

I'm not the biggest fan of political protests, but this is funny.


A small group of student protesters, including one wearing a black hood and an orange jumpsuit, heckled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales as he posed with old classmates Saturday during their 25-year Harvard Law School reunion.


"When the photographer was getting everybody set up and having people say 'cheese,' the protesters yelled: 'say torture, instead,' 'resign' and 'I don't recall,'" said Nate Ela, a protester and third-year student.


Law school spokesman Mike Armini said the impromptu protest was so small that some of those attending the photo shoot did not notice it.


Ela said the protesters followed Gonzales into the law school's library, chanting "shame" and "resign," before the attorney general's security detail took him to his motorcade.


Gonzales has become a walking punchline. People in the Beltway are attacking opponents by saying they are like Gonzales.

Hey he HAD to go to his reunion LOL !! I think that's pretty effective, actually and a good use of a law-student's time. Thanks for sharing I would have missed that one.

Karl Rove had the same thing happen to him when he spoke to College Republicans. It's bad PR for them. The drawback is people like David Howowitz will rant on about how college campuses are controlled by the Left. Recent polling I have seen show young people dislike the Bush administration. The White House is doing a better job of turning young people into Democrats than Howowitz's conspiracy ideas about college liberal programming.
