ASSOCIATED PRESS

HAMILTON, N.J. — A woman wearing a T-shirt with the words ``President Bush You Killed My Son" and a picture of a soldier killed in Iraq was detained Thursday after she interrupted a campaign speech by first lady Laura Bush.

Police escorted Sue Niederer of Hopewell, N.J., from a rally at a firehall after she demanded to know why her son, 1st Lieut. Seth Dvorin, 24, was killed in Iraq. Dvorin died in February while trying to disarm a bomb.

As shouts of "four more years" subsided, Niederer, standing in the middle of a crowd of some 700, continued to shout about the killing of her son. Secret service and local police escorted her out of the event, handcuffed her and placed her in the back of a police van.

Laura Bush continued speaking, touting her husband's record on the economy, health care and the war on terror to those attending the rally in this suburban community of 90,000 people near Trenton.

1. Good for her. I remember reading about Lt. Dvorin's death shortly

after it happened. Very sad.

3. my daughter asked me how my day was

and I said it was busy and full of hate.

"Hate?!?"

Yes, it seems the whole world has nothing better to do than wallow in hatred and exclusion and refuse to listen to people with real issues.

What a sad, sad story.

I would like to see a thousand more women like that at all of Laura's speeches, and coverage to the point where the Bsuh Gang would hesitate to arrest and detain anyone who chooses to disagree with them.

5. If Pickles can get away with

murdering her ex-boyfriend, this lady should be released and the charges dropped, WITH AN APOLOGY!

6. 4more months

What......dont they care about the troops
I thought they all "supported the president and supported the troops"
or do they only support them when they are alive?
They are a bunch of sick hypocrites

[liberalhistorian]

9. No, they only support the troops and their families

when said troops and families toe the repuke line. Anything even slightly out of lockstep, and they want nothing to do with them, brand them "hysterical", "unpatriotic", etc., etc.

7. How very, very sad.

But the Bushes do not send their children to war...

they do not want to bother their beautiful minds.

[Leilani]

10. How cold they are.

This story has me furious.

If she had 1 ounce of compassion, she would have not had the woman taken away in handcuffs, & would have spoken to her personally...
the very least she could have done.

[liberalhistorian]

8. How typical of that Stepford robot that

she just kept blathering away about her fascist idiot husband's total waste of the past four years while a woman who suffered a real loss due to said fascist idiot husband's selfish, idiotic policies is made into the villain.

But then again, why should she, in the immortal words of her even more selfish and idiotic mother-in-law, waste her "beautiful mind" on such trivial matters, anyway? It's not like she or anyone else in that diabolical Mephistophelian family have ever suffered, or will ever suffer, the loss of a child in an ill-begotten war.

11. "Touting her husbands record"???

13. They arrested her? OMG! If the Bu$h twins were killed in Iraq.....well,

who knows how cold hearted Laura actually is?

After all, she did kill her boyfriend some years back.

[maryallen]

19. Story on Olberman tonight ...

Despicable that they had such little respect for her loss.

Send George as the boy's replacement.
He still owes the government time...

[lasttrip]

14. teresa should call her.

[NJmaverick]

15. bush kills her son and then locks her up?!?!?!

Please let there be justice in this world.

[sffreeways]

16. A mother more courageous than the president

That coward that has no respect for anyone but his uber wealthy friends bails out of his cushy job with the ANG and half the electorate thinks he's got courage. Then you hear about people like this. Real courage. Serious courage and strength.

When you loose a child most mothers are so broken for so long I can't imagine the strength it takes to do something like this. A REAL hero with REAL courage and strength.

My admiration and empathy goes out to her. Bless you Sue Niederer bless you and your family and your son. And thank you for your sacrifices.

17. WTF???

"Too many people here had a loved one that went to work in New York that day," Bush said. "It's for our country, it's for our children, our grandchildren that we do the hard work of confronting terror."

And 9/11 is related to the Iraq invasion how exactly????

[Liberal Veteran]

18. WTF? Why does a person get handcuffed for exercising the first?

That's just fucked up.

21. Is there anything we can do to help Sue Niederer?

Just broke my heart seeing this woman placed in handcuffs, especially since she has made the ultimate sacrifice.

She has a perfect right to question that stepford wife Laura. And if Laura had any class, she might have the decency to let her have her say and respond to her.

At the very least Laura could have asked she not be arrested.

There is no reason that the bush twins can't enlist, they could spend their time, just like their father did, in the guard at home. They support daddy's war? Fine. Let them do it in uniform right here in the states.

A poll was done of young republicans at the convention in NY. They all "support" it, but not one of them wanted to enlist.

I thought I was sick enough listening to Laura spout her 9/11 mantra, until I saw what they did To Mrs. Niederer.

Is there anyway we can give her some support? Thank You.
