I'm not sure why everyone is so down on you. It maybe that security is such a big issue, but telling people what sort of content they can or cannot have on their signs has nothing to do with security. It also may be that the Clintons were just as bad, but that is not a standard by which I judge the candidates that I support.
You won't get this from CommonDreams boy, but basically the jerk who got arrested defied the local cops, and got taken to the pokey for his trouble. The fact that he was "protesting" Bush was entirely peripheral.
The CommonDreams author took the incident and created a nice big batch of Protestor Stone Soup, wherein the reader could practically feel the fangs of the police dogs the Bush campaign had specially imported from 1960s Birmingham.
What a crock! Krugman would be proud.
