Has anybody heard about this?

A 15 year old student drew an anti-war and anti-Bush drawing was question had his artwork confiscated by Feds in a small Eastern Washington town.

I am not surpised this happened considering that the town he is living in is pretty conservative. Also, it is not far from the Hanford Nuclear facility. However, this is just ridiculous that he is being subjected to this. It is just a drawing for chrissakes.

1. Two scary aspects to this

As we saw with the "Bush is a terrorist t-shirt" incident, the decision is made that dissent from the the "Bush is a wonderful wartime president" idea might be disruptive, and can be banned.

Secondly, the idea that the Secret Service is following around our own leader of the anti-BBV movement indicates that the Bush Administration is actively using its resources to stifle dissent through intimidation.

When is someone in a major media outlet going to connect the dots and expose this broadly?
