After attending Alberto Gonzales' speech, I have never been so ashamed and embarrassed to attend UF. I simply cannot believe people are so disrespectful and rude to someone who has devoted his life to serving our country.
I really appreciated and enjoyed what Mr. Gonzales had to say, and he has been the first speaker Accent has brought whom I actually wanted to see.
Also, I think the Alligator used left-wing bias in Tuesday's article about the event.
Unfortunately, I could only hear some of the speech due to the commotion caused by a group of people who hate anyone involved in the Bush administration.
While I loathe Sen. John Kerry with every fiber in my being and thank God every day for the fact that George Bush is our president, I would never have dreamed of even going to see Sen. Kerry, and I would never had heckled him while he was speaking.
Those people should be ashamed of their actions and how our university continues to lose credibility due to outbursts like this.
Mr. Gonzales took the high road as always and said, "Our young men and women fight overseas to preserve this kind of freedom of speech."
