SpidermanTuba said:And what is that dress code, exactly?
Cindy Sheehan, mother of a fallen soldier in Iraq, wasn't the only one ejected from the House gallery during the State of the Union address for wearing a T-shirt with a war-related slogan that violated the rules. The wife of a powerful Republican congressman was also asked to leave.
jAZ said:So I can now be arrested for breaking dress code? Wow, I guess kicking you out of the building is not enough when you are a liberal? You gotta lock us in Jail too with up to a year in prison?
What a great country Bush has truned this into.

Of course, the liberal position is that everybody should be able to splash their inappropriate, insubordinate, and trashy values upon everyone else at any gathering all in the name of freedom. They totally ignore the freedom of the majority to choose to operate a particular gathering with decorum and tradition. If you don't like the rules, don't attend.
jAZ said:So much for the "land of the free", I guess. I would hope that even the Libertarian-types around here would be a little outraged at this.
Be realistic, you can't toss out Sheehan without removing the other woman too. If you got something to say, run for office. Or paint a tractor trailer and drive it around town.. But, during the SOTU address, or any time you are allowed to go into the Congressional chambers, I would suggest that one dress appropriately.
Sheehan was probably a plant by the dems as they knew it would be controversial. I honestly feel bad that she lost her child.. I can't even begin to think I know what she is feeling at the loss. But,, her political views, fueled by her hatred for Bush, is annoying me. On the other hand,, it is a free country, and if she wants to campaign against the war, it is her life.. In how many other countries whould she be still alive to do so???

jAZ said:Not until it actually disrupts things. If it doesn't ever disrupt, then it's ok. That's the basic standard I've seen when reading up in the last few minutes. It's the same standard used in allowing students to wear T-shirts in school that teachers try to ban. You can only restrict/ban the shirt AFTER it causes a disruption. Until then, it's protected.
This reported didn't cause any disruption other than the one Bush's henchman caused by hassling her.

You're probably not the only one. Good thing she and Bill aren't really all that close; them "heavy-set" guys need to keep their aggravation level down. He seems relaxed.
jAZ said:You people crack me up... you folks will drive 18 miles out of the way to pick up a load of BS and bring it back to this thread to throw at a liberal.
First, the complaint is and has always been that... stick with me on this.. that Cindy Sheehan was ARRESTED!
Not like in the case of the Republican wife, or the Clinton impeachment trial guy. Those people were merely kicked out for violating protocol. That's appropriate.
Cindy Sheehan was ARRESTED.
Get the details straight... even with they conflict with your bogus attempt at a defense of the situation.
Now, I'm sure you all saw this story, but I see no trace of anyone from this thread saying sharing it. Again, most likely because it contradicts directly the BS being hurled on this thread.
Briefly: Capitol Police drop charges over T-shirts

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2006
WASHINGTON The Capitol Police have dropped a charge of unlawful conduct against the anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan and apologized for ejecting her and a congressman's wife from President George W. Bush's State of the Union address for wearing T-shirts with war messages.
"The officers made a good faith, but mistaken effort to enforce an old unwritten interpretation of the prohibitions about demonstrating in the Capitol," the Capitol Police chief, Terrance Gainer, said in a statement.
"The policy and procedures were too vague," he added.
On Tuesday night the police removed Sheehan and Beverly Young, the wife of Representative C.W. Bill Young, Republican of Florida, from the visitors' gallery. (AP)
CHICAGO: At least five hospitals are advising dozens of people who received tissue transplants to undergo precautionary testing after learning some of the tissue may have been fraudulently obtained from cadavers in New York. Federal officials say there is a small risk of infection from possibly diseased tissue as a result of what investigators call a large-scale scheme in which corpses were cut up and parts illegally sold. (AP)
NEW YORK: A 21-year-old man jumped to his death from the Empire State Building, the police said Thursday. David Abramowitz had bought a ticket to the 86th-floor observation deck but found his way on Wednesday to a vacant office on the 66th floor, where he jumped, the police said. His body was discovered on a sixth-floor landing. More than 30 people have committed suicide at the building since it opened in 1931. (AP)
NEW YORK: Colombian drug traffickers were readying puppies as couriers by implanting packets of liquid heroin into their bodies to ship them to the United States, federal officials said. The scheme was revealed Wednesday as the authorities unsealed indictments in Brooklyn charging 10 people with conspiring to import heroin. (NYT)

The police have admitted they were wrong. It's time for you folks who claim to be intellectually honest and morally suprerior to liberals to admit the same.
Jaz, when the woman is seen hugging Hugo Chavez, do you really find it all that suprising that she was arrested? It's sad that you can't see Cindy Sheehan for the publicity stunt that she is.
