Peace Mom" Cindy Sheehan's was arrested at Tuesday night's State of the Union address after she refused to yield to warnings from Capitol Hill police to cover up an anti-war T-shirt she was wearing underneath her coat.

Capitol Police Sgt. Kimberly Schneider told the Associated Press that Sheehan kept the anti-war slogan covered until she took her seat. When they noticed her politically charged attire, police warned Sheehan that such displays were not allowed.

The celebrated anti-war protester ignored the warnings, police said.

Police handcuffed Sheehan and escorted her from the gallery about 15 minutes before the president arrived.

"Since Feb.1, 2006" in conjunction with your rambling, incoherent post tells me all I need to know for now.

Welcome to Free Republic. Look out for Viking Kitties bearing lightning bolts, though.

Cheers!

No one is taking free speech. You only like to fantasize that they are...for the sake of feeling like a righteous martyr. I call it Liberal Narcissistic Martyrdom.

Cindy Sheehan broke the law. She didn't have license to protest where she did. She was warned ahead of time, but ignored the warning. She WANTS to be arrested, so it will look like she is a martyr.

I predict a "Death by Caterpillar" soon. Walk the walk Cindy. You NEED to be a martyr to the cause. Elevate yourself to Peace Moonbat Sainthood.

Could be. I'm just of the opinion that she's the type that will hang herself if you give her enough rope. It would have been worse for her, if she'd actually gotten the chance to make an attempt at disruption.

To caught-in-da-middle, if you're still reloading:

...arresting mothers of soldiers who died for their country.

I bet old Cindy is really happy her son died. Before then, she was just another whackjob leftist who hated America. Now, she's in the media eye and she gets to live out all mediawhore fantasies. She's really whoring it up. She seems to love the attention. I'd say her son's death was the best thing that ever happened to her. Maybe second on that list is being rid of the husband and the other kids. Now she's mediawhore #1 when it comes to the "anti-war movement" and she loves it.

I heard a report that she was arrested because she was bra-less and they were afraid someone would get an eye poked out by those udders.



Maybe she would have pulled a stunt of mal-function clothes like at the Super-bowl two years ago!??!
