1. BOOK HER DANO!

[Solly Mack]

2. Bush is a chickenshit - nothing more

he's afraid of the death he caused

[in_cog_ni_to]

3. WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT???? ????!@#$%^&^%$

GEEZUS! Welcome to FASCISM people!:grr:

[FreedomAngel82]

17. After the speech on CSPAN2 I saw

when CSPAN interviewed different politicians and there was one democrat, I can't remember who now, said how it was very telling how Bush hasn't been to ONE FUNERAL of a soldier. I think it was a represenitive woman from California.

4. If someone will provide a site where they're sold...

...I'm so there.

[Twist_U_Up]

6. something tells me theres copyrights on this one n/t

[sabra]

5. notice how the nice man is showing her the way...

OUT THE DOOR :mad:

[mb7588a]

7. Is it so different than painting your finger purple? nt.

[feistydem]

8. She looks like she's having fun with them all!

...and why is that room so empty, anyway?

[wordpix2]

14. she must have come in early. Should have waited for a packed house.

But...she's making the Big Headlines, yeah, Cindy, you go girl.

[Twist_U_Up]

9. AAR News just said she had a banner ??????

someone better get this under control

[orleans]

10. i'm sorry she wasn't allowed to stay--and see--and watch up close

to look into the eyes of evil

air america just reported that another news source (?) said it had to do with a banner she had brought in.

come on. i don't see no stinkin banner!

[JusticeForAll]

11. Wow...arrested.

After seeing this picture, I really don't think an arrest will reflect poorly on her. It will show even clearer to the uninformed what is wrong with this country.

[wookie294]

12. Grown men are afraid of this woman

EVERYBODY HIDE!!

:rofl: :rofl:

[never_get_over_it]

13. Actually I'm glad Cindy got arrested

especially since she seemed to not be doing anything but wearing the t-shirt - It makes them look like such freaking ass holes for arresting her.

[wordpix2]

16. so much for free speech in our nation's "Capital"

[mikelewis]

18. But who's looking but us?

[txindy]

38. And the morning shows are reported to be clamoring for an interview

So says a headline at Raw Story: http://www.rawstory.com Actually, "swarm" was the word used.


Hey, way to go, security. You just guaranteed Cindy more national coverage. :toast:

[Selteri]

53. Maybe this will show a lot more

With luck this could end up becomming a tipping point when a mother who is sitting peacefully wearing a t-shirt that isn't politically approved of by the leadership is arrested. As much as I dislike it, it is terribly telling and if people don't stand behind her being arrested for wearing a T-shirt then we shoul just report for chipping and processing. We won't be free much longer.

[graywarrior]

15. Next it'll be the oven.

What in hell is happening in this country?

[UnseenUndergrad]

19. The HEEEEL?!

This is outrageous! To treat the mother of a soldier fallen in a war that's iffy at best and Hague-worthy at most and has chosen to challenge the legitimacy of said war and its masters, as a threat and an annoyance is the epitome of arrogance. May these worms be thrown out in a timely manner.

[DemonFighterLives]

29. Good First Post

Welcome to DU!
:hi:

[Twist_U_Up]

32. Welcome to DU !

:hi:

[buddysmellgood]

36. Welcome to the Underground my unseen friend.

[Canuckistanian]

46. Well said, your unseenness!

Welcome! :hi:

[mmonk]

20. I believe her question was

for what noble cause? Amazing how afraid they are of that question.

[Twist_U_Up]

26. is that what is printed below the # ?

[jbnow]

21. She looks much more appropriate

then Cheney looked at Auschwitz

[Twist_U_Up]

24. bwahahaa

I forgot about that pic. lol

[fed-up]

22. I think I have a black t-shirt and white tape to make a matching one :)

Using 1" tape is a great way to make signs especially if one is not artistically inclined.

Tape would also be easy to change as the numbers go up...

[Gregorian]

23. They cannot tolerate the truth. Chickenshit chickenhawks.

[Straight Shooter]

25. Maybe it's just me, but I think a lot of Americans will see this pic ...

And they'll say, "OMG, are there really over 2,240 dead soldiers?"

People aren't paying attention. Maybe this will help.

[peekaloo]

27. Different kind of wardrobe malfunction.

Bless her!

[The_Casual_Observer]

28. Most powerful country in the history of the world?

[doublethink]

30. Ha ha !!!!!!!

I got the 5th vote tonight to put it on the Greatest Page! What a beautiful picture! Peace. :)

[Secular Agent Man]

31. I'm totally stunned by this.

Just stunned as I can be.

[pacalo]

39. You speak for me, too.

And consider the circumstances of the arrest: Blatantly out in the open, at the Capitol, in the presence of our nation's congresspeople, for wearing a t-shirt in the nose-bleed section.

I hope there are congresspeople who will speak out about this. I feel as though we've all been violated.

[MaggieSwanson]

33. I'm proud of Cindy Sheehan

Thanks for posting this pic, Twist_U_Up.

[katinmn]

35. Me too! She has guts, something decidedly lacking in that house

:patriot:

[Twist_U_Up]

37. I feel for her, I couldn't imagine how she must feel.So sad

[DemonFighterLives]

34. Banner up!

It looks like a sweatshirt and not a T.
Cnn was showing a clip with her in a sweatshirt with a Stop sign on it.

:dem: and Nom.

[In Truth We Trust]

40. is that photoshopped? Doesn't look right to me. Check the lettering and

the colors of the cloth out closely.

[Twist_U_Up]

42. Why would it be photoshopped?

[Jersey Devil]

48. can you post the link where you found it?

I don't doubt it but would like to see the story that went along with it.

[sabra]

50. here:

http://articles.news.aol.com/news/article.adp?id=20060131204009990009

[file83]

43. The "2," is printed on the T-shirt, and the "24(can't see the rest)" part

is on a piece of paper that Cindy obviously taped on after finding out the latest number today. Plus, the T-shirt is on underneath a black blazer. Other than that, what were you talking about? I'm looking closely in Photoshop and don't see anything questionable.

[Jersey Devil]

47. She changed the numbers as more deaths occurred during the day

and covered the old numbers with paper - see bradblog

[txindy]

51. Yes, Cindy altered it herself as the death toll kept rising.

http://www.bradblog.com/archives/00002355.htm

"...This was the Capitol Police....She didn't even want to go to the speech, she said she couldn't stand to listen to Bush, but she went. She didn't even protest, she was just wearing the same shirt she'd be wearing all day, a black shirt with the number of troops killed. It was already 'out of date' and she had to add 3 more to the previous number."

[file83]

41. The POLICE STATE DICTATORSHIP is now in session....

first to go: freedom of speech.

[quiet.american]

44. Cindy Sheehan - patriot. Period.

:patriot:

[radio4progressives]

Hear! Hear!

:toast: :applause:

[dweller]

45. the rePIGS will want her charged with false advertising

they know the numbers are not that low. . .

dp

[mb7588a]

49. FYI: This happened in America.

Washington, Adams, Paine, Franklin, Jefferson et. al would shit a brick.

[hippywife]

54. And they would also be

standing with her not politely standing and clapping at Dimson's speech.

[ourbluenation]

52. she stole * thunder. period. msm will be talking about this non stop.

Thank you Cindy for having bigger, stronger balls than any man I know. Damn.

[W_HAMILTON]

55. I just don't get America today

The hypocrisy of giving a speech where you go on and on about freedom, all the while a lady was ARRESTED for a damn t-shirt. Whatever, I can maybe understand removing her from the audience if need be, but where do you get off ARRESTING and detaining her?

It's just amazing to see how far this country has fallen. That whole cliche, about how "you're free to do <insert whatever>, it's America" is just that now -- a cliche. It doesn't ring true at all anymore. It's sad.

[mdmc]

56. Welcome to DU!

[Vinca]

57. To think our sons and daughters die every day to protect our

freedom of speech. Bush should be ashamed.

[MADem]

58. So now you can be arrested for stating SIMPLE FACTS

That shirt has a NUMBER on it--the number of kids killed. So, what happens if the Monkey doesn't like the weather? Do people get arrested for stating the temperature? What if he's late for a nine o'clock meeting, and doesn't want to hear that it is ten past nine? Arrest the staffer?

Some truths are fucking SELF-EVIDENT. Count the aluminum "personnel transfer tubes" coming into Dover.

The distinguished Senator from New Jersey must be counting his blessings; with this behavior he was fortunate not to be arrested for carting this poster into the Senate:

[YOY]

59. Woah that's VULGAR!!!
