Cindy Sheehan: What Really Happened
Late last night I posted that I heard Cindy Sheehan was arrested in the Capitol's House of Representatives while awaiting Bush's SOTU speech. At that time, CNN only made a short mention of this, saying she had "unfurled a protest banner", or something to that effect. However, since then it's come out that Cindy was arrested for merely wearing a shirt which said "2245 Dead. How many more?". She tells what really happened, in her own, anguished words, and she is clearly shaken and aghast by what her country has turned into.You will also find the erroneous Washington Post article reporting of this, where the paper said Sheehan was arrested "after demonstrating in the spectators gallery".... When you read Cindy's own words, you will see that this is far from the truth.
