Rove speech greeted with protests, bomb threat, claims of pepper spray

CLAREMONT - Karl Rove, the former Deputy Chief of Staff and senior advisor to President George W. Bush, discussed presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama and gave his take on the legacy of the current president.

But hundreds of protesters greeted Rove before, during and after his speech.

When Rove tried to leave the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum, at least two people and possibly a third claimed they were pepper sprayed while campus officials said they were not.

A bomb threat was also determined to be unfounded, campus officials added.

Rove's speech took place from 6:45 p.m. to 8 p.m. Monday inside the Claremont McKenna College Athenaeum at 385 8th St.

"One of the most important resources is time," Rove said about the 2008 presidential election.

Rove said Obama had not seized the narrowing election days to "advance his case."

For instance, Obama linked the country's economic problems to Bush and McCain instead of showing "he's up to the job" with a specific proposal.

Rove said he felt Bush was a "successful" president but they had "done a lousy job of explaining" why he was.

Rove listed the million dollar AIDS relief fund for Africa, the accountability of the No Child Left Behind performance program, large amounts of money invested in alternative energy and privatizing social security.

After the speech, Todd Logan, 21, of Pomona College, said he saw two people get hit by pepper spray when Rove was led out by security while other students reported three.

Some students said they were hit by the vehicle Rove was drove off campus in but officials denied their claims.

Henry Watkins, consultant for Claremont McKenna College, said no students were hit with pepper spray or hit by a vehicle.

A bomb was reported at 7:31 p.m. inside of nearby Collins dining hall but was later found to not be true, Watkins said.

1. Excellent. nt

[mmnnbb]

2. Its crap like this

so when we can't beat them on ideas, we'll just start a riot.

That will win some votes.

It ain't the 60's anymore.

[ExPatLeftist]

3. We beat them on ideas every time

...and they just steal the elections.

What then?

[mmnnbb]

4. Quite running guys who come off as morons

[rhett o rick]

6. What the hell does that mean. ???? nm

[Amonester]

9. You know... "Quite" instead of "Quit"...

That's a "typical" freeper-moran "Quality."11hug11

[mmnnbb]

13. in case you haven't noticed

The Dem's have a way of picking people only we will like. They have no ability to pick up votes from the other side. Look at gore, a monkey should have been able to win against bush after the 90's. Look at obama now, after the past 4 years, he should have a 20 point lead at this point.

I know they steal them from us, but the leads should be so high that they can't.

16. Well if people can't distinguish

a bold face light of day wide open lie from someone interviewing for the job of president after see the failure and

lies of the current president, then Obama getting nasty isn't going to sway that person... Being a fake politican is not what has gotten Barack

Obama to where he is today. Character, integrity, leadership, judgment, empathy, consideration, responsibility, a caring heart, education, wisdon,

thoughfulness, professionalism, and love for this country has.


He's raised the game to a whole new level...

When republicans are going through neighborhoods stealing Obama signs, like mine was stolen today... You know some are comfortable being in the

ditch. But the vast majority in America always strive and work hard to move forward, and that's what we'll do when Barack Obama is POTUS...

7. Is that "quite" or "quit"?

And what do you like on your pizza?

[rhett o rick]

15. So you are saying that Gore and Kerry are morons? And someone told me

you weren't a troll. lol

[rhett o rick]

5. What exactly do you me by "we can't beat them on ideas"?? Speak for yourself kemo sabe.

We beat the hell out of them over issues. But they own the media and the police. Some people think it is necessary to call attention to the injustice by demonstrating, sort of like throwing tea into the bay.

I hope you haven't been tombstoned before I post this.

By the way, the "riot" you are referring to is only a sample. Just wait 'til we drag out the guillotines.

[Quantess]

14. Can't beat them on ideas? McCain copies Obama's ideas because he has none.

But, if you like McCain's ideas better, then please go vote for him.

And, what does this have to do with the '60s anyway? I'm surprised you didn't also advise us that communism is dead, which is very contemporary advice! Thanks, by the way, for your illuminating wisdom. I'll try my hardest to get out of the '60s and into 2008. :eyes:
