THOSE WHO TUNED IN EARLY TO THE STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS LAST NIGHT know Cindy Sheehan got herself arrested before the speech began. Unless they follow the Hate America Left closely, what they don’t know is that Sheehan was ejected because she and her cronies tried to hijack the president’s constitutionally mandated annual speech by shouting him down. And a “progressive” congresswoman may have been her enabler.

She wore a black sweatshirt to the SOTU?

[tarzantheapeman]

So, she's a bull dyke. Do you think she and cindy have something going on? They both probably have a hard time getting dates. Do you think mrs. clinton is jealous?

[cubreporter]

We have friends who live in Napa and...we used to live in Marin. It's beautiful country there and the earth can't help what lives within it. I love Northern California. It's beautiful. If their politics are lefty there's nothing I can do about that but I wouldn't leave a place just because of someone ele's politics. John Lindh's parents produced him...no one else.

[rabidralph]

Yes, underneath she had a black tee-shirt with the number of military who died in Iraq and some slogan "how many more have to die" or something similar, under the number.

"Sadly, it won't happen. Her home district is the same one that Bab's Bouncer is from. Ca is messed up. Pray for us."

In that case, screw that and let's put some heavy duty pressure on our senate folk to punish her!! We should hold our senate pubs accountable if they give her a pass with just a warning or slap on the wrist!

Tax Relief posted this on another thread.....

Lynn Woolsey Refresher Course:
July 2003 - Lynn Woolsey campaigns for women's rights, BUT when the son of one of her staffers brutally rapes a 17-yr-old and stuffs a rag--soaked in toilet bowl cleanser--down the girl's throat, Woolsey sends a letter to the judge asking for leniency for the rapist; She insisted he could "change".

Lynn Woolsey is a member and an officer of the Progressive Caucus, a communist group within Congress founded by Bernie Sanders in 1991. [Congress's Red Army] About 60 representatives in congress are members of the caucus. Until 1999,the Progressive Caucus was openly partnering with the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Their toned-down mission statement can be found here:All in One (pdf) or The Progressive Promise (html).

I like visiting there. Wouldn't want to live there, though.

[bigfootbob]

I woulda preferred to see a congressman cane the moonbat before she was ejected. We have precedence.

what they don’t know is that Sheehan was ejected because she and her cronies tried to hijack the president’s constitutionally mandated annual speech by shouting him down.

This is false. The constitution mandates that the President report to the congress on the state of the union from time to time, and it can take any form the President chooses. Until the television era, and making the SOTU message nothing more than a big campaign/political speech, Presidents submitted their message to congress in writing.

[fightu4it]

The whole "stunt" was designed for the purpose of diverting today's media attention away from the President's speech and making Sheehan the story of the day. I hope the conservative media doesn't take the bait today.

Also at the SOTU:

IS REUTERS SENDING A MESSAGE ABOUT A COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF HILLARY?

[popdonnelly]

"Woolsey should be censured by the House and voted out this
November."

I like the way you think. Whether it's likely to happen or not, it's worth the effort.

Also worth the effort is preventing people like Woolsey and Conyers from taking over the House of Representatives.

[threeleftsmakearight]

Yes, thank you.

Here's mine:

"Rep. Woolsey,
I'd like to thank you for making it possible for Cindy Sheehan to be at the speech last night.
It gave America another opportunity to see what a classless person she is. It also allowed many people a glimpse at how you operate...I guess even a low-life can be elected to Congress if they run in the right district.

Incidentally, Chavez's "revolution" is an armed and violent one. How does a "peace" activist reconcile that?
Violence on behalf of Marxism is o.k., right Congresswoman?"

[ritewingwarrior]

Maybe if Sheehan put on some makeup and washed her hair, and didn't look like she walked in off the street she might garner a bit more respect. Even the liberals know they need to look their best for something like the SOTU.

[popdonnelly]

"She was dumb as a box of rocks then and apparently has never changed."

The key to success in the Democratic Party.

[ichabod_65]

My e-mail to Woolsey wasn't nearly as....civil. When I read this article my body's core temperature went up several degrees.

I know it's FrontPage but I'm not sure any media outlet knows the first damn thing about the Constitution.
