No, no, no. Not that lady. The one that got arrested. And not "get her off" in the "nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more" sense, but in the "get her out of jail" sense.
Oh, screw it. I just opened Pandora's Box. Might as well run like hell now.

A woman accused of heckling Chinese President Hu Jintao during a White House appearance this week was charged Friday in federal court with a misdemeanor of willfully intimidating, coercing threatening and harassing a foreign official.

Wang Wenyi, 47, had obtained temporary press credentials as a reporter for a Falun Gong newspaper and positioned herself on a camera stand.
According to Secret Service translations provided in court documents, she shouted in Chinese: "Stop oppressing the Falun Gong," as well as "Your Time is running out," and "Anything you have done will come back to you in this lifetime." She also shouted in heavily accented English: " President Bush, stop him from killing," and "President Bush, stop him from persecuting the Falun Gong."

It seems to me that this Lady should get a community service award as well as an all expense paid trip to Disney World.
She's got more stones than Murtha does!
Does she have a defense fund yet? I'd contribute.
Does she have a defense fund yet? I'd contribute. We're not allowed to protest out front of no. 10 downing st. anymore (equivalent to your White House). Sadness, it is.
What did she do? Did she punch a cop with a closed fist?
This makes me sick. He's a commie and she's going to be prosecuted. This is nuts.
land of the free home of the 1st amendment ping
I'm guessing Jackass and Sharpton are not answering their phones on this one
"Does she have a defense fund yet? I'd contribute. We're not allowed to protest out front of no. 10 downing st. anymore (equivalent to your White House). Sadness, it is."
It's worse than "sadness". We fought and won a Reveloution over this kind of bullsh*t.
Not any more.
I cannot fathom that we would do China's bidding on this. If Bill Clinton were President I'd be furious! Frankly, I am anyway. How low is this nation going to sink?
Rush and Sean should turn this into a big issue.
It's outrageous. This woman is a heroine and deserves all our support. This administration's (and previous ones') suckups to China stink.
They are too busy defending a stripper.
Yeah apparently mccain fiengold did even more damage to the 1st amendment then we thought. It looks like its down for the count or until we get a republican majority in at the white house congress and the senate.... oh wait nevermind:-(
"..willfully intimidating, coercing threatening and harassing a foreign official."
What a trumped up pile of manure..
Depressin' ain't it? Rather like a real-to-life Star Wars flick...with the Dark Side winning.
They forget they work for us, and we have vocal chords and the freedom to use them.
