Rep. Lynn Woolsey, a Marin Democrat, was arrested at the Sudanese embassy this morning with four other members of Congress.

“May I suggest using your nightstick, Officer?”

[RexBeach]

Were they on a hunger strike at the time?

OMG.

I hope they enjoy the jail.

Five where they belong, 430 to go.

[duckman]

These people must think they are back in the USA. Don’t worry Zero to the rescue.

[gieriscm]

Wonder who the other four are?

Too bad they're not in a Sudanese jail. They'd really get an education.

"a moron Marin Democrat"

Fixed....

[JohnD9207]

perhaps she should write her congressman....geez

[dfwgator]

I see we’ve got a lot of Trading Places fans here.

[green iguana]

Minnesota Rep. Keith Ellison and Maryland Rep. Donna Edwards are both mentioned in the Fox.com article on this.

[GOPJ]

She didn’t bow low enough?

[PLKIng]

Ummm...isn’t that redundant?

[Syncro]

I imagine some of them are members of the racist bigoted military deserting Congressional Black Caucus

Arrested:

Uniformed Secret Service officers put plastic handcuffs on Reps. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), John Lewis (D-Ga.), Donna Edwards (D-Md.), Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), and Lynn Woolsey (D-Calif.)

Three posts of the first 10-12....classic.

[Moorka]

Next week it will be a nude bike rally for Darfur.

[Fred Hayek]

Keith Ellison (D-MN) was among those arrested

[sticker]

[CaptRon]

Other members of Congress arrested, all Democrats, were Reps. Jim McGovern of Massachusetts, John Lewis of Georgia, Donna Edwards of Maryland and Keith Ellison of Minnesota.

34 seconds, you beat me by 34 seconds

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

These people must think they are back in the USA

It isn't made clear, but I believe this WAS in the USA, in Washington, DC, at the Sudanese Embassy. Likely arrested by DC cops. It would be nice if this had been made clear.

[ssaftler]

Don’t worry Zero to the rescue.

And I'd bet it won't take four days of chicken-choking to get it done.

[duckman]

Yes, I read the article several times and wasn’t sure if they were overseas.

[benjibrowder]

I was really hoping Corrine Brown would be on the list.

[Fred Hayek]

I believe that is redundant...but funny.

Woolsey is my “representative”. I can’t tell you how proud I am.

I can certainly vouch for John Lewis’s credentials on that score.

[fieldmarshaldj]

I always love good news.

[shibumi]

You mean 530, don’t you?

(Oh, yeah ... and then there’s the White House Resident, Chief of Staff, and his staff, and the EPA, IRS, BATFE.....

Do we have enough cells?)

[fieldmarshaldj]

Ah, a nice rogues’ gallery of racists and moonbats.

[Little Ray]

Hmmm. Looks like most of ‘em are not just Democrats, but out ‘n out Commies.
Can’t really argue with protesting against the Sudanese, though.

[Ken H]

To the Tower!

[Thunder90]

they don’t have to worry... Obama will order their release and the charges will be ordered dropped.

[SoldierDad]

Is waterboarding legal there?

[KoRn]

Wow! Party affiliation was mentioned in the first sentence! Unbelievable!

[RobinOfKingston]

I wonder if their perspective on “torture” will change.

Should I be feeling more sympathetic?

[ThreePuttinDude]

affiliation mentioned because they’re victims dontchaknow

[wastedyears]

LOL

Keith Ellison, the only muslum member of the house.

[Buckeye McFrog]

since Embassies are technically the sovereign territory of that country, is she on her way to a Sudanese jail?

[yorkie01]

A little Sudanese waterboarding would be nice but I doubt that the Sudanese thug leaders have anything that mild in their little bag of anti-American, anti-Jewish bag of interrogation tricks.
