‘Karl Rove, former senior aide to President Bush, spoke to a hostile crowd at the University of Iowa yesterday evening. Students and local citizens protested his appearance at the university and “staged a mock trial” for Rove inside the student union before the speech.’
note that this is in iowa 
‘The University paid Rove $40,000 for the speech and had to agree to limit “recording equipment and flash photography” to “the first five minutes of the lecture.” At the end of the talk, an audience member shouted at Rove: “Can we have our $40,000 back?” Rove replied: “No, you can’t.“‘
can we have our country back?

Congratulations to them! He’s an A.H. He just should have shut up and left. He shouldn’t be allowed in public in the first place.

Who the f#ck decided to hire Rove to speak in the first place? The students should have demanded not to spend their money in that way. Glad they gave him hell though. Interesting the no cameras thing– it’s a variation on the by invitation only pseudo town hall meetings– only those who agree are invited.
