Gonzales heckled at his law school reunion.

    Poor privileged baby!

    I love the article –

    “Say torture cheese!”


  3. Knappy Headed Ho says:

    poor gonzales, thank god he won’t recall it in the morning. the only reason he remembered which school to go to is because his wall showed a diploma from there dated 25 years ago.


  4. david says:

    I think Gonzales should be America’s test case at the ICC. America has been reluctant to join the International Criminal Court, but one case of crimes against humanity starring Alberto Gonzales as the defendent should convince Americans that the ICC is a good thing.

    well I guess the strike through doesn’t work….


  6. Stupid Git says:

    Too bad Harvard didn’t revoke his degree.


  7. Stupid Git says:

    I wonder how his classmates feel about the shining beacon of liberty and justice for all their old pal has become. Must have been interesting hearing the conversations when he wasn’t around.


  8. Roger says:

    Is he smart enough to be “annoyed?” I thought he could only make puppy dog eyes at Dubya and forget things.


  9. the fly-man says:

    Yes it’s true, the Attorney General was there to dedicate the new wing of the Kennedy School of Government for the advanced study of memory reclamation and organizational obfuscatorial management.


  10. George says:

    I would not want to pose with that shithead?


  11. unbelievable says:

    I used to date a guy who worked in the Admissions offices at Harvard, and he said that once they let you in, they don’t fail you because it reflects poorly on their reputation of being super selective…

    With Chimp and Abu as representatives of that ‘no fail’ policy, Harvard should rethink their strategy on this… Really.

    got this link from Rawstory –

    http://www.jtmp.org/

    It’s a remake of John Lennon’s Happy Christmas / War is Over.


  13. Hedley Lamarr says:

    These awful people need to be confronted whenever they appear outside the bubble. Let Broder & Co. clutch their pearls; these are felons, fascists, and fools.

    keep eating the french fried paint chips gonzo, long term memory will be a distant curse…


  15. Pete_Bogs says:

    and it’s only gonna go downhill from there, Gonzo…


  16. Zooey says:

    How can a guy be so f*cking clueless?

    He actually thought he could go to this reunion, and experience no public consequences.

    This isn’t the Bush Administration — it’s the Bubble Administration.


  17. Jay Randal says:

    Gonzales probably desired to have the students arrested, but he does not have Bush’s goons with him to do it.


  18. katy says:

    harvard… whodda thunk it… really…
    i did not know that…
    i still want to see the law degree…


  19. Marie says:

    I don’t think anything embarrasses him or humiliates him.
    Remember, as Jon Stewart pointed out, AG would rather look like a total pinhead than contradict Bush and his policies.


  20. Dick Pinch says:

    Like he’s going to remember anything in the morning…

    (how did he remember he even WENT to Harvard? Do any of his classmates remember HIM, or is memory-loss a given in the trade?)


  21. Chocolate Jesus Love Anulingus says:

    > how did he remember he even WENT to Harvard?

    the diploma on his office wall reminded him after he studied it for several weeks.

    There are some folks out there who didn’t like Slobodan Milosevic either.

    That’s nice.

    What no pictures/videos?


  25. VerbalKint says:

    I like the orange jumpsuit. Nice touch. I doubt it was lost on Abu.


  26. Scott says:

    This is one thing that annoys me.

    I hate Gonzalez like the rest of you, but come on, heckling him at his law school reunion? That is fucking ridiculous and the people who did that should be ashamed of themselves.

    Quick, someone give Alberto a Purple Heart. Lord knows, those emotional wounds can take a lifetime to heal.


  28. Karim says:

    Gonzalez gets what he deserves.

    Mission Accomplished


  30. bdrube says:

    ANYONE who who pose for a photograph alongside this useless piece of human garbage is themselves a disgrace.

    Absent a war crimes tribunal, this type of public humiliation should follow ALL members of this criminal administration for the rest of their lives.


  31. big papa says:

    I’m TOTALLY peeved…

    …heckled?

    …they should’ve kicked his a*s…

    …Ivy League pu*sies…


  32. marlow says:

    HARVARD trained this little lump? Creeping Jeezus…


  33. gemmama says:

    Channel 5 WLVI Boston had the story last night but reported that he was so badly heckled during a speech that he had to leave midway through via a back door. I thought it was great that students at Harvard did that and wish Cheney and Bush would get the same treatment someday.


  34. sconset117@yahoo.com says:

    I cannot believe that he went to Harvard Law School. I have friends who went there and believe me Gonzales isn’t in their league–my pals are bright and curious and intelligent–this guy must have either looked good on paper or he bullshitted his way through his interview.

    When you get to be in your late 50’s you think you’ve pretty much seen a lot in life and then this–I mean I can understand Bush going to Yale as a legacy entrant but Gonzalez at Harvard–he looks like he’s the clerk in the Garden Department at Walmart.

    My relatives went to school there but they made a contribution to society and made the world a little bit better–not like this asshole who is a disgrace–he should be disbarred.

    on the latest monica goodling
    e-mails (document dump of friday):

    i think what is missing
    is more important than
    what has been found, thus
    far. i think too much is
    being made — by very good
    minds — about this particular
    four word sentence
    .

    [i've been off the grid for a bit. . .]

    i think the e-mail they
    DIDN’T send is more important,
    and more damning, by far.

    that’s just my $0.02.

    and, “well-done, one and all!” to the
    harvard law school students for calling
    gonzo to account, at least in some small
    way for all he’s done to undermine confidence
    in the justice department under george bush. . .

    good on ya’s!
