<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>It was
mentioned in the AP story of January 25:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>Confronting Gonzales during his nearly half-hour speech
were more than a dozen young people in the audience who turned their backs to
him and held up for a banner for television cameras. The banner, loosely based
on a Benjamin Franklin quote, read: "Those who would sacrifice liberty for
security deserve neither."</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>And
Bill O'Reilly sure noticed:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006></SPAN></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>O'REILLY: And in the "Impact" segment tonight, a couple
of years ago I made the mistake of booking far left Georgetown University law
professor, David Cole, on this program. After the segment, Cole ran to Howard
Kurtz of the "Washington Post" and completely misstated his experience on "The
Factor."</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>Of
course, the liberal Kurtz printed the attack, even thoroughly explained to Kurtz
that the professor was wrong in his assertions.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>Anyway, Cole is not a quality guy in my opinion. And
therefore, I was not surprised to see him in the middle of a very troubling
display at Georgetown yesterday.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>Attorney General Alberto Gonzales was invited to the
college to talk about the NSA controversy. And faced a bunch of hostile
protesters who turned their back on the attorney general, disrupted the
proceedings and then didn't even listen to what he had to
say.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>Nothing wrong with protest, but disrespect is another
matter.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>Joining us now from Washington, David Rifkin, a member
of the U.N. Commission on human rights. Mr. Rifkin was at that Georgetown
University event.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>Do I
have it right or I miss anything? I just thought this was disrespectful to the
attorney general?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>DAVID
RIVKIN, MEMBER, U.N. COMMISSION OF HUMAN RIGHTS: It was. And I would say that
every time you go to a liberal campus, and that is unfortunately the case with
most law schools in this country, you may encounter such
protests.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>I
though it was very courageous for the attorney general to go and deliver the
message that needed to be delivered</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>I
thought the students were disrespectful. And, as you mentioned, the thing that
was sad is having finished the speech, we had a debate in which Professor Cole
and I and two other people participated, and the students left immediately. So
obviously they were not interested in listening to the exchange of
views.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>O'REILLY: You know, if I were Attorney General
Gonzales, I would not have attended any event where Professor Cole was seated.
Because he is a virulently anti-Bush far left radical guy. And I don't know why
the Attorney General wants to put himself in a position where, as you said, he
is not going to persuade the protesters or Cole. The protesters are not even
going to listen to him.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>And
Cole has convicted both the Attorney General, the president and everybody else
of crimes. This professor has convicted all of these people already. In his
mind, they are guilty of all kinds of legality.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>So why
would the Attorney General even bother going in there?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>RIVKIN: I would imagine, Bill, that again, if you want
to reach a broad audience -- it was, you know, taped for C-Span. You don't just
look at the audience in the room. You try to reach a broader audience and, quite
frankly, again, if one did not want to face a hostile reception, one wouldn't go
to any law school in this country.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=436434000-15022006>O'REILLY: Well, I don't know. I think you could have
gone to American University, for example, maybe to George Mason and gotten a
fairer hearing and still gotten the C-Span cameras to come
over.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN class=436434000-15022006>I just
-- these radical people, like Cole and his acolytes, disturb me, Professor.
Because they don't, as you said, engage in any kind of -- you can't persuade
them. I mean, their minds are made up.<BR></SPAN></FONT><FONT
