| 2007-12-12 | |
| OWA CITY -- Former Presidents are used to hecklers, but a robot? Bill Clinton was speaking in Iowa City Monday when a man dressed in a silver metallic suit made a scene. "Gort! Klaatu barada nicto!" The protester said he wanted Clinton to apologize for a comment he made in 1992 about a rapper named Sister Souljah and then threw "Don't tase me, bro!" Clinton told him he needed to find a more environmentally-friendly way to protest.
