Um, no .... protesting a speaker is a way of offering the alternate point of view. It's a dialogue. It's extremely rare that a protest is going to prevent the speech, or even attempt to do so. Rather it is way for throngs of people to potentially muster enough bully pulpit that a famous (or infamous) speaker has au naturale.
If Condi is speaking, I find it behooves those who are anti-imperialist-war-machine to ride the media popularity and present an opposing viewpoint to the public. No one is being squelched, but neither is a monologue allowed to go unchallenged.
