[Former Military Chick]

I do not know about you, but, when one is given the privilege of attending the SOTU address, than frankly you should dress appropriately. A t-shirt for goodness sake. Does she not have the sense God gave her. Don't answer, I know the answer.

Really, the idea that Rep. Woolsey thinks this is OK and is upset shows she doesn't have the sense either. There is a time and place for protesting, she seems to have figured that out but at the SOTU, wow and this is her spring board to being elected to Congress too.

While Sheehan was arrested this is more about the idiot who gave her the pass.

[Nitro]

It doesn't surprise me that a demon-rat is unaware of the law of the land.

I truly fear for the future, I'll be dead in 25 years and who will watch?

[Pukin Dog]

This the best week Republicans have had in a long time. Democrats just keep on giving us their best gifts. God bless the crazy Sheehan woman, she destroyed any other message the Dems were trying to put out last night.

Excerpt from Cindy "Grief Pimp" Sheehan's Online Diary, re: her arrest last night. :)

I guess Woolsey's other guest, a Middle Eastern suicide bomber canceled at the last moment, having already blown up at a previous engagement.

Woolsey knew exactly what was going to happen when she invited the moron and anyone who thinks different is on cheap drugs.

There actually is a law forbidding any protest "device" in the gallery; the fact that she hid her t-shirt (unfortunately for her, not long enough) shows that she was aware of this, and so was the flake Woolsey, too, no doubt.

She says they're all lying:

Woolsey gave Sheehan her lone visitor's pass for the speech earlier in the day at an anti-Bush event -- Impeach George Bush -- sponsored by the Congressional Progressive Caucus*, which is co-chaired by Woolsey.

Whatever crime they charge her with, Woolsey is an accessory.

[Dont Mention the War]

Was the phrase "Rep Woolsey stunned American arrested for wearing T-shirt" part of the original headline, or did you add that in? I was just wondering because it's not there now, and I was going to comment on how wildly biased the paper was being if they used it:

http://sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2006/02/01/SHEEHAN.TMP

The charge, according to the AP, was "demonstrating in the Capitol building," not "wearing a t-shirt." Woolsey is just spinning as usual.

[frankjr]

Check out Lynn Woolsey and Pete Stark (article from WSJ 9/9/05):

"Osama Six-Pack
The House yesterday passed an anodyne resolution commemorating the fourth anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks. It extended sympathy to the victims and survivors; honored the military, first responders, and others who helped; thanked foreign leaders for their support; declared that America is not waging war "on any people or any faith"; reaffirmed a commitment to the global war on terrorism; and vowed "never [to] forget the sacrifices made" on 9/11 or to "bow to terrorist demands."

No one could disagree with that, right? Not quite. The House vote for the resolution was 402-6; here are the six far-left Democrats who voted "no":

* John Conyers (Mich.)
* Barbara Lee (Calif.)
* Jim McDermott (Wash.)
* Cynthia McKinney (Ga.)
* Pete Stark (Calif.)
* Lynn Woolsey (Calif.)"

While Sheehan was arrested this is more about the idiot who gave her the pass...

Heheh I think Sheenan was duped on this one (but maybe not, not sure how savvy she is) anyhow, whoever gave her the ticket knew exactly what would happen! Presidential security would not allow this ever!

[Berlin_Freeper]

The Democrats and LibIdiots think they are above the law.

If that Cindy traitor were allowed to sit there with her t-shirt, then you can bet next year every single Democrat in the building would be wearing t-shirts, pins, funny hats, sock puppets, etc.

Eventually they would be holding their hand an inch in front of President Bush's face taunting "I'm not touching you, I'm not touching you, you can't do anything because I'm not touching you..."

Rep Woolsey stunned American arrested for wearing T-shirt

Oh please.

Is cheap histrionics all these people are capable of?

It's no wonder moonbats have become the democrat's base...no one else can stand their turgid dramatics.

[hershey]

Brit Hume said there were reports she had a banner she intended to unfurl. If so, it was probably along the lines of ....GW, Butcher of the World!

[msnimje]

Rep Woolsey are you also stunned that the American people want the State of the Union address to be civil and maybe even regal?

These people have no shame and most assuredly no sense of decorum.
