Well, the Capital Police have apologized for arresting Cindy Sheehan last night, at the president’s annual Trust Me, I’m Not A Megalomaniac speech. Which is nice. What would’ve been better? A little training day for the officers, on the fundamentals of the US Constitution.
I really think somebody needs to lose a job over this one, as a matter of principle. Though I’ll bet Ms. Sheehan isn’t entirely sorry. She went there to make a statement, not to hear the speech, and damned if she didn’t. A lot more so than if her shirt had been on camera once or twice.
Just for yucks, read the article. You don’t want to miss the part about the other woman who got tossed out.
