Police remove anti-war protester Cindy Sheehan from Bush speech

Nothing less would be expectd in today's police state of the union event.

Correct, nothing else would be expected, they did as they should have. She is an idiot. She had an invitation and she blew it.

Its very sad that so many troops are being killed. She should protest in another, more constructive way, like writing a letter not threating the president and trying to become a celibrity and martyr. Does she think one lone crazy soccar mom can get all the troops in Iraq home? If so she is sadly mistaken.

Did you actually go to Crawford or Washington and meet Cindy? OR SEE fro your self what Cindy Sheehan is about? I DID and she is far from a 'crazy soccer mom" I am proud to have gone to Crawford and see the memorial of the 2000 soliders that have died in this war it really registers the amount of human life that has been lost over there. It is unpatriotic not to question the government, we employ them to protect our constitution and rights such as freedom of speech. Also she was wearing a shirt that had the number dead soliders on it that said "How many more?" and she was arrested 30min. before the state of the union adress even began, on suspision that she "might" so something to get the attention of the TV cameras. She didnt do anything illeagal she has NEVER threatend the President and wearing a T-Shirt is a constructive way to protest, I know cindy is glad she was arrested it just made our point loud and clear. Thanks Paranoid White House Nazi's

Did I not say that it was horrible that the troops are dead? It is a high risk horrible occupation but it is neccesary for the protection of our basic rights as human beings. I have two cousins entering in the military and i pray everyday that they will not have to be deployed. my grandfather was also in the military in WW2 and he saw his friends die beside him and other atrosities no person should have to see and you wont have to because they gave their lives to protect you and Sherri whater her last name is ever though you mock and blasphem their honorable service to our country.

What mocking did I or anybody else do? The memorial in Crawford was not a mockery but a reminder, a memorial, if you had gone then you would have seen the same. I lost one of my high school friends barely a year ago when he was killed in Iraq, Tony Hernandez a graduate of Smithson Valley High School in Spring Branch TX, we played tennis together. My stepdad who spent 25 years in the Air Force and was in Vietnam went to Crawford also he is the last person on earth that would ever mock another solider. My grandfather (who also served in Vietnam) just got his VA bennifits cut not even two months ago, thats a far bigger mockery to our Veterans and returning soliders than anything I've ever heard of, I wonder how our Government is going to treat the soliders coming back from Iraq, I honor every solider that has died by asking WHY? and demanding accountability. I come from a family with very strong military ties and I have lost a friend over there so I will use what they are fighting for in a productive manner, and give thanks to all the brave men and women who are fighting now and all the veterans who came before.

This woman is so far over the edge, I don't know how anyone can take her seriously. She abandoned her family including her son when he was 12. She had nothing to do with him until he VOLUNTEERED to serve our country, which she opposed. When he was unfortunately killed, she cynically used his death to support her far left political agenda. Then when she is invited to attend the President"s speech to Congress, she uses it for her own purposes rather than giving proper respect to the President (he is President for all of us), respect to Congress, respect for the occasion, and respect to the American people. In case you are wondering, I also support removing the Congressman's wife with the t-shirt supporting the troops. All freedom's including Freedom of Speech are subject to time and place restrictions. Wrong time and wrong place.

I agree. They did get paranoid, my huby is getting sent over and we have a child on the way. He may not live to his own son grow. Those of you that don't have family going over-put your place in my shoes (and others). My personal oppinion is to go ahead and send our men over, just do it and get it over with. In other words just bomb them and get out, and focus on the problems we have here. Rich are getting richer and not putting near as many hours as the little guy. And what is this about them not lowering the gas prices so the bigger guy has a pension plan. Our president almost went bankrupt now big oilfield businesses are in the middle east put it together, and what do get. Pur president and the big guys are making billions off the oil there, and keeping our minds on the war. There many different points on this, I aslso feel that we are at the brink of WWWIII.

I hope you all feel like idiots now that the troop surge is working and victory to the United States of America is all but complete. There was once a time when there wouldnt have been any question involved when in came to supporting your soldiers. If people like Cindy Sheehan wanted to see to the safety and success of our soldiers then instead of screeching like a maniac she and her followers could have demanded a troop surge and the replacement of Donald Rumsfeld. Oh, sorry, I said success; I dont think that our victory is what she wanted. Rot in hell, Sheehan.

Cindy was a psycho witch from hell. The Democrats played her to their friends in the media to get in a lot of Bush bashing. When Cindy turned her mentally unstable attacks on the Democrats they dropped her like a hot potato. The media wasn't going to give Democrat bashing any press so they dropped her too.
