"Alberto Gonzales spoke before law students at Georgetown today, justifying illegal, unauthorized surveillance of US citizens, but during the course of his speech the students in class did something pretty ballsy and brave. They got up from their seats and turned their backs to him. (...) additional students came into the room, wearing black cowls and carrying a simple banner, written on a sheet."

dude - go read my blog entry for today - I transcribed the response to the A.G.'s (assinine) address. The response is by David Cole, a law professor at Georgetown (and a brilliant man). He makes reference to the students actions.
