“We screwed up,” a top Capitol Police official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. He said Sheehan didn't violate any rules or laws.

Cool. If I get an invite to the next SOTU address I'll attend nattily attired in my "Ted Kennedy's Car Has Killed More People Than My Gun" t-shirt.

And yet, someone who was willing to be quoted by name, said something altogether different than this "she didn't break any laws".

Thus far, only the Washington Post has revealed, “She was also vocal, said U.S. Capitol Police Chief Terrance W. Gainer, and after she ignored instructions to close her jacket and quiet down, she was led out and arrested. Demonstrating in the House gallery is prohibited.”

I think you're right and some Congressmen pressured the capitol police to drop the charges.

Watch FNC. Brit just said he'll be back with some things that happened behind the scenes last night at the SOTU. Maybe he'll have more on this.

My take on this is that Cindy was conveniently gotten out of those chambers any way possible, including a "mistake".

This ditz was capable of disrupting the whole enchilada with shouts, wails and screams during the speech. It was worth "making a mistake" to tie her up for a few hours.....and somebody higher up with advanced knowledge (and cajones) that she'd be there worked this out. Better of two evils.

Cindy may be learning the hard way that more than one person can play hard ball. She's NOT going to set the agenda.
