She was arrested for wearing a t-shirt. She offered to cover it up or remove it and was arrested instead. How ironic that dumbya referenced MLK, who used non-violent protest. Just some more hypocrisy from this jackass, and the subsequent lesser jackasses. Sig Heil.
No, it's not ironic. She knew the rules gong in and willingly chose to ignore them. She is not the only, nor the first person arrested for this, it occurs at every SOTU speech as well as others.
It was a grab for media attention pure and simple. This and the fact that she was on with Chauvez (Venz. dictator) and agreed, applauded and promised her support in his attempt to overthrow the US government has made me grow weary of her true motives.
OMG! Really? She wanted to draw attention to the needless deaths of 2200+ soldiers? What a media whore. Perhaps a public flogging would be the best route to limit this type of miscreant behavior. She was a guest of Lynn Woolsey, not just there because she won a ticket. I love CNN's take "Sheehan pestered the dumbya administration since August" (ok, I replaced bush with dumbya). Pestered. Awww, poor georgie, being pestered by a citizen who's speaking their voice, peacefully.
Maybe we can get dumbya some earplugs and blinders, oh wait, he's got those already. I feel so sorry for the apologists for dumbya. Keep goosestepping along to his music, I'm sure there's a spot in his military for his next excellent adventure into Iran.
Alright, you've moved past the point of having an intelligent conversation, completely ignoring the facts.
Fact: She wore a t-shirt.
Fact: Your President can't handle dissent.
Fact: She was not "disrupting" anybody.
As ironic as it is that 2/3 of these are your opinion ("I'd rather lose with truth than win with lies. "), you should try reading some stories on what actually happened before you start stating "facts".
Fact: There are certain rules in place to ensure that the speech is not disrupted.
Fact: She was told of these rules, and told not to violate them.
Fact: She violated these rules by either unfurling or planning to unfurl a banned in the chamber (again, some stories say she did, some don't metion it)
Fact: When asked to obey the rules, she refused.
Fact: When asked to leave the chamber, she refused, and became vocal.
Need I continue?
Sure. Break out your goosestep.
I'll assume from your response that you're conceding the point.
I feel sorry that you worship a President that is too much of a pussy to handle an unfriendly t-shirt in the gallery.
"I'd rather lose with truth than win with lies."
Perhaps you should consider removing this from your signature.
What's the matter? Did I strike a nerve? Wanna baba?
To the contrary, it seems to be the other way around.![]()
I'm stating the obvious. Your President is a pussy and so are his followers.
A woman with a t-shirt that says "2245 dead. How many more?"....
Please, you people are such wusses.
Then I suppose Bill was a "pussy" as well as his "followers" when epople were removed for shirts and banners and disturbances during his speeches concerning stained dresses, etc.?
Man Wearing Anti-Clinton T-Shirt Removed from Senate Gallery at Impeachment Trial
Wed Feb 01 2006 08:47:08 ET
Cindy Sheehan, the anti-war activist who was removed from the House gallery last night before the State of the Union address for wearing a t-shirt with a political message, is not the first person to be tossed from a Congressional gallery at a high-profile event for wearing a political t-shirt.
In the early days of the Senate's impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton in January 1999, a Pennsylvania man named Dave Delp was removed by the Capitol police from the Senate gallery for wearing a t-shirt that said, "Clinton doesn't inhale, he sucks."
The Pennsylvania school teacher was yanked out of a VIP Senate gallery and briefly detained last week during the impeachment trial for wearing a T-shirt with graphic language dissing President Clinton.
Delp, 42, of Carlisle, Pa., and a friend had just settled into their seats when four Capitol security guards approached them. Delp said at the time that he was ordered to button his coat and follow the guards. Outside the chamber, he was told "several people felt threatened by your shirt."
Even after establishing that Delp was a guest of Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.), the guards wouldn't let him back in and escorted him to a basement security area, where they questioned and photographed him.
After being given one of the photos as a souvenir, Delp said he was banned from the Capitol for the rest of the day. "They were polite and professional," Delp added, "but they really did scare me. I think I should have been given the chance to cover up."
Several others were removed during President Clinton's tenure for disturbances related to the Monica Lewinsky affair.
