Photo (Plus Video) of the Moment: Alberto Gonzales’ Eternal Shame…

Share article:

May he never again be able to go out in public again without being brought face to face with his eternal shame…

The University of Florida’s student paper has details. ThinkProgress has more details. RAW STORY has a previous similar incident for poor poor Gonzo.

He was paid $40,000, out of student tuition, to speak at the University of Florida, where a student was recently tasered after asking John Kerry uncomfortable questions. Nobody was tasered during Gonzales speech.

Video of the incident follows. NOTE: Though not seen in the following video, another protester, dressed in army fatigues and holding a sign which read “HABEUS CORPUS”, also took the stage in front of Gonzales, as he again averted his gaze, before being similarly escorted away. Kudos to both of the two courageous patriots, as well as those who protested from the audience…

    Brad, Thanks for posting this. The more attention the AGAG story continues to get the more people will notice and possibly realize this isn’t just about politics, it’s about protecting our Constitution, our way of life our standards, our Traditional Family Values!

    Ideally the mainstream press would report these things and help us to protect the world from crazies who would try to get in charge and do real physical damage, uh, except that the media didn’t and the Bushies already have done tremendous damage.

    OT,..

    A couple hundred thousand potential 2008 voters will be denied their rights to vote by bu$$hCo. A backlog of immigration applications for citizenship will not be processed in time – these people will not be allowed to vote in the next pResidential election.

    ::::

    The Department of Homeland Security failed to prepare for a massive influx of applications for U.S. citizenship and other immigration benefits this summer, prompting complaints from Hispanic leaders and voter-mobilization groups that several hundred thousand people may not be granted citizenship in time to cast ballots in the 2008 presidential election.

    Bush administration officials said yesterday that they had anticipated applicants would rush to file their paperwork to beat a widely publicized fee increase that took effect July 30, but did not expect the scale of the response. The backlog comes just months after U.S. officials failed to prepare for tougher border security requirements that triggered months-long delays for millions of Americans seeking passports.

    What planet do these media reporters live on ? Bob Woodward has no idea what a voter caging list is. (????)

    ::::

    Bob Woodward Still Has Never Heard Of The Voter Suppression Tactic ‘Caging’
    Earlier this week, Washington Post investigative reporters Bob Woodward and Jeff Leen hosted an online chat at washingtonpost.com. One of the participants asked Woodward and Leen how pervasive the voter suppression tactic known as “caging” is. The investigative reporters had no idea what it was:

    Washington, D.C.: Don’t you have a duty to report criminal activity to the appropriate authorities?

    How pervasive is “caging”?

    Bob Woodward and Jeff Leen: We publish what we can find and document. Many times over the years government authorities have pursued the information we have dug up and launched their own investigations. But we’re trying to serve the readers, and we do not act as police or prosecutors. And please send us an e-mail explaing what “caging” is.

    As a graduate of the University of Florida, I am distressed by how its current leadership is acting.

    First, its security abuses a student who asks a taboo question about Kerry conceding the 2004 election when evidence was coming in of voting irregularities across the country. On one of the videos, the student asks his question of Kerry and men in suits can be seen ordering police to get him. See,
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TIYTJ75U4NU

    Then, UF pays a member of the Bush regime who has lied to Congress and who has been actively involved in violating our Constitution to come and speak. Please”¦..

    UF alumni should demand removal of those at UF who were involved in attacking the student and those who were involved in inviting Gonzales to speak. UF should not support police brutality, should not stifle free speech, and should not spend money bringing disgraceful former officials to speak on campus.

    You can reach the President of UF at 352-392-1311 or by fax at 352-392-9506. Tell him that Gators are not fascists!!!
