2. CNN went down a few minutes ago

but as I type this it has reappeared. I got a call from my friend who said that's probably what would happen today. She was heading to the WH when she called.

12. How about a citizen's arrest

against Bush, and try him for treason against the American people?

10. MSNBC has it: Cindy Sheehan arrested...

Edited on Mon Sep-26-05 12:58 PM by ticapnews

Breaking now...

edit: They covered it for about 30 seconds. They did show brief live video from the scene, but nothing was happening, just a bunch of people milling around...

It looks like the police picked out the leaders and let everyone else stick around...

update: Dallas Morning News story:
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/dn/latestnews/stories/092705dnnatsheehan.a7d9b65.html

WASHINGTON - Cindy Sheehan, the California woman who has used her son's death in Iraq to spur the anti-war movement, was arrested Monday while protesting outside the White House.

Sheehan and several dozen other protesters sat down on the sidewalk after marching along the pedestrian walkway on Pennsylvania Avenue. Police warned them three times that they were breaking the law by failing to move along, then began making arrests.

Sheehan was the first taken into custody. She stood up and was led to a police vehicle while protesters chanted, "The whole world is watching."
