265. I thought this might happen -but
then I dismissed the notion thinking the bushies couldn't be that stupid... apparently they are that stupid

from a political standpoint -- this is the dumbest thing they could do

We had company over the weekend so I didn't catch much "tv-spews" -- I was off from work yesterday (monday) and did channel surf the tv-spews -- majority of the stories were about Peter Jennings, didn't see one story about Cindy Sheehan

according to another posting on the DU - Cindy Sheehan was scheduled to have several major "spews" interviews - but they all canceled. They must have gotten their orders to not cover her story.

Lack of coverage in major "spews" outlets would have squashed the story all by itself - but if she's arrested - not only will it get air time but it will also elevate Cindy Sheehan's status from a protester to martyr. and given the poll numbers about Iraq - this is a very dangerous thing for the bushies to do...

Rhetorical question: Would bush* refuse to speak to Sheehan if she were there with "support bush" signs and wanted to thank bush* for the Iraq war? Would they arrest her if she gushed with praise for bush?
