WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama will deliver a major speech on the economy Tuesday, April 14th, at Georgetown University. The speech will take place at 11:30 AM EDT in Gaston Hall.

The President will discuss how each step his administration has taken to confront this economic crisis fits within his broader vision of how we move this economy from recession to recovery and ultimately to prosperity. He’ll also talk about the significant work that remains to be done to get the economy moving forward once again.

WHAT: President Obama to Deliver Major Economic Speech at Georgetown University

WHEN: Tuesday, April 14th at 11:30 AM EDT
Randall Terry, a nitwit, will hold a protest tomorrow as well. Terry is an extremist. Check him out here. It's interesting to me that you don't have to have any wits to get media coverage. You only need to be loud and controversial. Terry, who's trying to stop Obama from speaking at Notre Dame, calls Obama an "agent of death," which shows you that not only is he ignorant but he also doesn't care much about his cause. He only wants to be righteous--self righteous. The only thing he is doing is inciting unstable people to violence. 
MarketWatch: The following is being issued by Randall Terry, founder of Operation Rescue:
On Tuesday, April 14, from 10:30 a.m. to the end of Mr. Obama's speech, DC area Pro-life leaders and activists will protest at the entrance to Georgetown University at 37th and O Street. Their presence is to denounce Georgetown, who invited President Obama to speak, knowing the scandal and outrage surrounding his scheduled speech at Notre Dame on May 17.
Randall Terry, Operation Rescue Founder, and Missy Smith, Director of WAKEUP!, will lead the protest.
Randall Terry states:
"The University has deliberately poked its finger in the eye of the Bishops and faithful Catholics who have condemned President Obama's appearance at Notre Dame.
"But far worse - they have cast aside the unborn who will perish under President Obama's policies. They have put prestige ahead of life.
"Georgetown's attitude seems to be: Germany's leaders built great roads in the 1930s, they helped save the banks, and they rebuilt the economy. Let's focus on their economy - not that whole genocide thing."
