Anti-War BannersT-Shirts of Mass Destruction and open thread
Posted by Jill | 9:06 PM

MSNBC just reported that Cindy Sheehan has been arrested for unfurling an anti-war banner from the gallery of the Capitol, where she had been given a pass by Rep. Lynne Woolsey.

Any bets on how long it takes before he talks about spreading freedom around the world, after jailing a dissident only moments before his speech?

Rant 'n' rave about the State of the Union Address in the comments. I'm working on my blog template and listening to The Majority Report, so I'll liveblog whatever of this crap they actually play.

UPDATE: Turns out Cindy Sheehan did NOT unfurl a banner, but was wearing an anti-war T-shirt. She was not asked to leave, she was not asked to cover up the shirt, she was arrested. Nice way to introduce the idea of spreading democracy. Either that or they hired Carson Kressley to enforce tasteful attire. If that's the case, then what was with Elizabeth Dole's suit?
