The First Amendment is now dead and buried in the USSA. You guys
should be
both afraid and ashamed of allowing the Bush cabal to engage in these
sorts of shenanigans.

Sorry Trevor, but you don't know what you are talking about.
This is not about the 1st Amendment.
No one is allowed to do anything like what she tried to do.
If it had been a pro bush banner she was trying to unfurl the results
would
have been the same.
No such behavior is allowed in the Senate, by anybody. People have
been
removed in the past for chewing gum and reading books in the Senate
chambers
while State of the Union addresses were being given.
Some other Republican congressmans wife also was asked to leave for
wearing and I support the troops T-shirt. Back in the Clinton era
people were asked to leave the gallery for provocative T-shirts.
Nothing new here. Theres long been a dress code enforced for SotU
speeches. Trevor, you might want to find a more in-depth news source
than MTV.
**Here are Sheehan's own words about this whole, disgusting abrogation of
the basic rights of US citizens:

I have no doubt that her ultimate intention was to make
a verbal protest during the speech.
**"Intention" is not a crime.
There is no place for that, not against Bush, not against Clinton,
or not against any US President, no matter the policies
or behaviors being protested.
**She was wearing a T-shirt. Nothing more. She did not deserve to be
handcuffed, fingerprinted and detained for several hours.
