Cindy Sheehan describes what happened
Demonstrating yet again, that this woman is heroic, and that the federal government is run by a criminal gang.

Demonstrating once again, that you are a blithering idiot! Anything that the liberals run up the flagpole, you salute it seems... Funny how most of the news reports have a much different story of things. Why am I not surprised. She admits that she was taken out before they even had an idea who she was, so this was not special treatment by a "criminal gang" as you and many others have said. Listen to the drivel below. "I started crying in pain" ... is she going for an Oscar award? Later she admits that she wore the shirt to demonstrate and make a statement to the press ON CAMERA DURING THE SPEECH! What part of this is not allowed during this speech do you and your gang not understand? A person doing the same thing was removed from a speech that Pres Clinton made, or do you have selective memory in this area? I rest my case and am just glad that she was found and found early. JoeA I told him that my son died there. That's when the enormity of my loss hit me. I have lost my son. I have lost my First Amendment rights. I have lost the country that I love. Where did America go? I started crying in pain. I wore the shirt to make a statement. The press knew I was going to be there and I thought every once in awhile they would show me and I would have the shirt on. I did not wear it to be disruptive, or I would have unzipped my jacket during George's speech. If I had any idea what happens to people who wear shirts that make the neocons uncomfortable that I would be arrested...maybe I would have, but I didn't. Lets tell the rest of the story: San Jose News http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/13758989.htm Forbes http://www.forbes.com/work/feeds/ap/2006/01/31/ap2490058.html CNN http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/01/31/sheehan.arrest/ MSNBC http://msnbc.msn.com/id/9493139/ Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/01/31/AR2006013101521.html ABC News http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=1563258 Is that enough? Can get more but doubt you would care to read the truth! All of the above show a different situation than what Sheehan posted. You want to believe yours or the 6 world leading news agencies above?

I do not support the war in Iraq, but Cindy Sheehan picked the wrong venue. The State of the Union address is no place to be disruptive. She could have worn appropriate attire and held a "rebuttal" press conference after the address.

If I were a lawyer questioning this story on the stand, I'd ask her, "Wait a minute, first you said you walked through the tunnel and up 3 flights of stairs, and because you got so warm, you unzipped your jacket, at which time you were arrested. But then you go on to say that you were never told to zip your jacket back up before this time. Something doesn't add up."
Of course, I may be nit picking, but this is the sort of thing that can at least fluster the fibber, thereby diminishing her testimony. Just something I noticed. BTW, a republican congressman's wife was also thrown out of the place, this time for wearing a T-shirt in support of the troops. The only difference was, she wasn't arrested. No political statements on T-shirts, banners, etc are allowed.

Pick your battles, libs. She's just not worth it. Rosa Parks? Not even close.
Maybe you far lefties can trade that opportunistic, exploitative ***** for the far righties' Pat Robertson. I think this country's political debate would be greatly improved by the absence of the two of them. |

Thanks for posting that statement Pat. It’s a sobering read. And the first post following yours from a guy that believes those pesky WMDs are in Iraq, a guy that wouldn't know a civil liberty if it smacked him on the head, calling Sheehan a liar.
Classic. He's probably thousands of miles away (maybe making some war profits, huh Joe?), but knows that Sheehan's personal recount of events is a lie. Joe, I think a more productive use of your time would be finding those WMDs! That way we'll know you are not a crackpot, when you come back proudly displaying all those weapons you are sure are there! Get crackin’ No need to keep us advised of status, just report back when you find them …

So Cindy thinks she has lost her first amendment rights?
She has gotten more press coverage than just about every other citizen in US history, and yet has lost her rights? If she was from Iraq no one would have heard of her because her tounge would have been ripped out before she was killed. With no press coverage. Fastpat, I'm sorry, but if I had noticed this thread was started by you, I wouldn't have bothered looking at it. |

Exactly. If you go to a restaurant that has a "jacket and tie" requirement, do you complain when you aren't admitted in your shorts and T-shirt? She broke the rules, as did the congreesman's wife. Don't cry for Cindy, she managed to accomplish exactly what she set-out to do--generate more media coverage. Big deal.

If you would try this today in: Cuba, China, Mexico, Russia, Burma, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran and many other countries you would be put in jail. You are exercising something that many have fought and died to protect, yet you have no idea of what its like to lose.
