They should have thrown her over the railing, along with the nutcase that invited her.
These people, (Kennedy, Kerry, Sheehan etc. ) are so intertaining.
This martyrdom of Cindy Sheehan has become a truly tiresome piece of melodrama. She and Woolsey are both idiots for thinking they could get away with this.
Count the number of times the pronoun "I" is used by her.
My guess is that the George Soros gang is giving her all of the money she wants. She now has a spokeswoman and as you said is flying all over the world to every anti-American gathering she can find.
In a way, I wish she had been let in and the whole world would see what Bush has to put up with everyday.
If anyone is interested, this is the email address of the Congresswoman who brought Cindy as her "guest." I am going to write her a brief note about her lack of taste in guests.

Will Lynn be punished for this?
Nope.
LOL! Good analogy!
My wife was at a Girl Scout leaders meeting (years ago) and one of the attendees (wife of a Dayton Daily News editor) decided to throw her weight around. She said, "Do you know how many Presidents I've met?" My wife told the lady running the meeting, "She's referring to US Presidents."
When my wife told me about this I said I would have responded, "So, ..., how well do you know Bill Clinton?" When my wife told some of the other leaders this, they were in stitches.
While I understand that politics is a rough and tumble arena, it saddens me that areas such as the Capitol Building are now becoming sites for grandstanding stunts. The Democratic congressmen who invited Cindy Sheehan to the State of the Union were certain that she was going to create a scene.
I hope that the party leaders review the events that led up to this disgraceful act and take action to prevent it from happening again.
It's hardly appropriate (not to mention, illegal) for a disgruntled citizen to use the inside of the Capitol for protests, there are areas in Washington set aside for just that purpose. But it's quite another when the protester is there to interrupt an invited guest, the President, with the complicity of members of Congress.
The Democratic Party should be ashamed.
Of course, we all know they have no shame.
If the police had any sense, they had a camera on her at all times anticipating her Michael Jackson-like bogus claim of police brutality.
Just an FYI.
The California Congresscritter Lynn Woolsey (D) has her website designed so no email will be accepted by her office from any address outside of her state's 6th Congressional District.
Amazing how effective Democrats can shut off debate and enclose themselves in a bubble when they want to.
Oh brother, that's enough to make one toss their breakfast cookies....
Too bad Woolsey can't be arrested right along with her. It's a no brainer that she helped stage it.
God bless you, Glenn.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- The wife of Rep. C.W. Bill Young, R-Indian Shores, told a newspaper that she was ejected during the State of the Union address for wearing a T-shirt that says, "Support the Troops Defending Our Freedom."
Beverly Young told the St. Petersburg Times that she was sitting in the front row of the House gallery Tuesday night when she was approached by someone who told her she needed to leave.
She said she reluctantly agreed, but argued with several officers in an outside hallway.
In a telephone interview with the newspaper, Young said she told them her shirt wasn't a protest but a message of support.
Capitol Police Sgt. Kimberly Schneider said Young wasn't ejected from the gallery and she left on her own. She couldn't provide additional details.
Young's husband found out about the incident after Bush's speech and called it unacceptable. AND
FLASHBACK: 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."
