How stupid can you be, arresting Cindy Sheehan while the whole world is watching?

September 27, 2005—Does having Cindy Sheehan arrested and hauled off to the pokey to be photographed and finger-printed make you feel like a man, Dubya? Is this payback for Cindy's Camp Casey in Crawford?

Better pour yourself another drink, George. Maybe pop some more pills, too. You're gonna need 'em.

Nothing can ignite our determination to rid our country of you and your band of criminals than seeing a mother, who opposed your illegal war before her son died in it and who wants all the killing stopped, arrested for not having a permit to sit down in front of the house—the White House—that belongs to the people along with all the other government buildings and public spaces in Washington, DC.

1. It's not as though W. himself hauled CIndy away...
The police did. And they were just doing their jobs :shrug:

2. Speaking of what we own.
I know that a lot of security was put in place to deter terrorists, or so they say, however, why are we the citizens of the USA considered terrorists?

5. It wasn't just Cindy who was arrested
But it sure helps that the peace movement now has a face. It is amazing how one woman can tip the scale. Arresting Cindy was like arresting every single protester out there.

Cindy's not riding the back of the bus, even if they chained her there.
