A protestor tries, not very hard, to handcuff Karl Rove as he speaks to a convention of mortgage brokers (boo, hiss) in San Francisco:
There was major political theater involving President Bush’s former chief of staff Karl Rove. A protestor tried to arrest Rove for treason Tuesday morning while he was speaking at the Mortgage Bankers Association Convention, continuing in San Francisco.
There were three protests during a very lively back and forth between former senate majority leader George Mitchell and Karl Rove. Rove blamed the Democrats for everything wrong with the economy.
A protestor tried to smack handcuffs on Karl Rove, but Rove slapped back, and the woman was taken off stage.
Hmmm. Not sure I’d call that ‘major political theatre’: it was a bit lame, really. ‘Slapped back’? Rove looked like he was shooing a fly.
This lot could do with some lessons from Fathers for Justice. Some of them may be certifiable nutjobs, but by heck they’re good at this sort of thing.
