She should be given the Congressional Gold Medal for her acfions; that Boehner, McConnell, and the rest of the RINOs do not consider giving her one should reveal their intentions.

Throwing shoes is so yesterday - she shold have dumped a bucket of feces on her - then it would be Art - protected speech under the First Amendment.

I am prepared to give my life in their defense."

I wouldn’t have thrown a shoe; I would have thrown one of my socks... I guarantee she wouldn’t forget that smell.

" ... undergo mental health treatment at the discretion of probation officials ... "

Clear case of a court that can chew gum and walk at the same time, bound by "the jaw" and did the least amount of damage to a woman that did something .... the court liked and agreed with ....

just that she got caught and charged

The idiot that actually wrote up the charge eats alone

Had someone from the Loony Left thrown a shoe at Sarah Palin, it would be defended as “performance art” and ruled as Constitutionally-protected political free speech

My sole question is this...
What can we do to make this brave woman's one year at home incarceration as comfortable and memorable as possible?
Has there been a fund set up to make that possible?

I would like to contribute.

Another case/situation involving a ‘judge’. I’ll bet the woman involved never had any choice as to whether this person was qualified to be a judge. It is difficult to take that this lady was ‘judged’ by her peers.

So THAT’S why she had that expression. I’ve seen it before and I didn’t know what it was about.
