One day after Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty announced his resignation, a protestor interrupted the introduction of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales at the National Press Club this morning just moments before he delivered a speech on “Safer Neighborhoods: A Plan for Partnership.”

Protestor at National Press Club calling for U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales to resignCNN captured the video, and Yahoo! is showing it here.

The protestor calls out “Mr. Gonzales resign; you’ve dishonored your country.”

Gonzales then begins to speak from his prepared remarks: “Thank you and good morning.”

Before she is removed from the room by the Attorney General’s security detail, the middle-aged white-haired woman continues heckling Gonzales, shouting: “Resign, please, you’ve dishonored your country. You’ve destroyed the Constitution. You’ve dishonored your country, resign. You’ve dishonored your country.”

The Attorney General’s response at her removal? CNN’s video shows Gonzales snickering with apparent smugness.
