Hmm, a few of the ephors around here are telling me that she's a sanctioned troll. "Token," I believe the word was.

MurryMom is fun to have around. She doesn't post often enough if you ask me. My one complaint about her is that she rarely if ever responds to posts to her comments.

Below is a Lefty Blog report on this. I don't know if this is true or not but they are saying she was arrested for the shirt she was wearing.:

Antiwar activist Cindy Sheehan -- who was invited to attend President Bush's State of the Union speech -- has been arrested, Capitol police say.

"..Invited by Rep. Lynn Woosley (D-CA) to attend the State of the Union, reports are that she was arrested inside the Capitol chamber.

MORE... 9:08p ET - CNN's "Breaking News" banner announcing the arrest at their website now removed, shortly after CNN reported arrest on air. No further news available currently at their site on the arrest...

9:14p ET - AP reports on CNN's report. Says, "Activist Cindy Sheehan Arrested at Capitol".

9:30p ET - The BRAD BLOG has confirmed the arrest moments ago with David Swanson of AfterDowningStreet.org.

According to Swanson, Sheehan was "arrested for wearing the shirt she was wearing all day, which had the number of U.S. troops killed in Iraq...She was lifted out of her seat [in the Capitol Chamber gallery] by the Capitol Police and taken away."

Swanson told The BRAD BLOG moment ago that Sheehan is "now under arrest and lockup by Capitol Police." He confirmed that moments ago with Gael Murphy, a co-founder of CodePink, an organization which has been working Sheehan. Murphy spoke by cell with Sheehan after the arrest, and they are currently arranging for an attorney for her.

"This not the Park Police," said Swanson. "We're used to getting arrested by them. This was the Capitol Police....She didn't even want to go to the speech, she said she couldn't stand to listen to Bush, but she went. She didn't even protest, she was just wearing the same shirt she'd be wearing all day, a black shirt with the number of troops killed. It was already 'out of date' and she had to add 3 more to the previous number.".."

Liberallarry responds to rebuttals. Usually with violations of rules of logic that would make anyone who knows anything about the laws of evidence vomit.

What I've noticed is that the "progressives" are in reality, unbelievable hate-mongers.

There are pics of her getting arrested. She was wearing a dress. These people are nuts.

Nowadays when anybody dares to tell truth to power, he or she is either arrested and thrown in jail or ridiculed as insane.

At least they don't end up in Ft. Marcy Park like they did back in the good ol' days of Clinton and Gore.

And what do you mean by "speaking truth to power?" Are you disappointed because Iraqis now have the right to vote and aren't being fed into meat grinders? That's the truth you hate to hear.

Limbaugh says that liberals love misery. If that's true, and I believe that it is, then I suppose that liberating Iraq and Afghanistan and lifting people out of their misery must be very upsetting to a liberal.

Well, the pictures of her above being escorted out show that it is a lie to suggest her shirt had anything to do with it. Unless Hillary requested her offense for wearing a black pant suit.

Maybe Skinner was caught up in the Bart Abramhof scandal too, as this pic clearly indicates!

Progressive is what liberals call themselves now that we have shelled the word "liberal" into mud. Nobody is willing to stand on that ground anymore. Same crap, different label.

MurryMom's been around here so long, she has sort of been "grandmothered" in.

George Orwell wrote that all pacifists were hypocrits ... of course, the leftys don't want to read the real Orwell,

"DUMMIE LAND IS IN LOCK DOWN!"

Skinner may as well leave it that way. Only the scúm de la scúm will show up there after this - anyone with a synapse in his head will leave or be thrown out now.
