Rep Bill Nelson(R) Florida just told the same story on the House floor about 20 minutes ago. What gives?

Bill Nelson is a Dem, but he's a fairly tame one, because Florida is increasingly a red state and he's got to watch his step.

That said, however, I think this just proves that the law was simply being applied across the board, and that the police had been told not to allow any kind of slogans, positive or negative.

This is a blessing in disguise for the GOP, IMO.

SInce Sheehan is planning on getting a lawyer to sue for her ejection and arrest for wearing a politcal statement on her tee shirt, they can cite the treatment of Nelson's spouse for wearing one...albeit with an opposite point of view.

In my cynical mind, Nelson's wife was setup for this on purpose.
