MSNBC just showed a clip of the NJ woman being arrested.....

[speedoo]

For asking pickles why her son died in Iraq.

This woman looks like a real fighter. We will be hearing a lot about this, and the coWard just lost any chance of putting New jersey in play.

Maybe this will also get some local play in neighboring Pennsylvania.

1. I guess she's pissed Bush nor Pickles went to the funeral. n/t

2. I'm amazed the networks are even showing protesters

generally they show the "stinky hippy" stereotype protesters to conform with the Rove agenda. That poor mother-did they rough her up like they did to the protesters at the RNC?

[speedoo]

7. They showed cops (all male) handcuffing her.

She was resisting so they had some big guys restraining her forcefully.

Not good for the coWard.

3. she deserves some attention

we can hear Pickles any time, let's hear what this woman has to say.

4. so what did she do that was against the law that...

...warranted her arrest?

5. More compassionate conservatism in action

Obviously Laura Bush were she thinking could have said something to the effect of "My husband and I realize your child made the ultimate sacrifice. Please accept our condolences and just KNOW your son did not die in vain." BUT NO...she had to have the woman SHUT UP!

8. Silence the dissent!

It's quite disturbing that this has become the mentality of the media in this country. We're not supposed to know about anything bad going on, unless they want us to know, and that's usually an 'everyone's going to die' terror alert or nonstop coverage of hurricanes to divert attention from other stories.

6. And Pickles knew the answer to the mom's question

But I haven't the balls to repeat it for taking the chance of sounding like I will disrepect the memory of the mom's son.

9. Do you hear that

It is the resounding echo of BRING IT ON!

I hope every parent, relative, friend, neighbor, stranger of a soldier who died shows up at these rallies and demand the questions be answered.

Arrest is scary, but silence is scarier (now I'm gonna scurry back to anonymity).

[speedoo]

10. Local New York coverage.

On WABC and WCBS was very limited. Just the bare facts, plus some coverage of the coWardess speaking. Lumped in with "NJ in play" garbage.

I certainly hope the woman sues the cops and the shrub campaign for arresting her without cause.
