Cindy Sheehan arrested before SOTU

[gldstwmn]

Mrs. Sheehan was wearing a t-shirt when she took off her coat that had the number of soldiers killed in Iraq on it. So they arrested her. There was no banner.

And so the right wing Bush police state continues. Even as he defends wire tapping and the Patriot act from inside the forum..Chilling.

What the fukc was this "human-animal hybrid" business he was rambling about? He's been hitting the bottle.

Last year it was sterioids, now it's "human-animal hybrids."

I dunno maybe he got the idea after looking in the mirror?

A hopeful society depends on courts that deliver equal justice under law. The Supreme Court now has two superb new members, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Sam Alito. I thank the Senate for confirming both of them.

This is why the Democrats will continue to be the minority party. With Bush thanking them, the average voter sees no difference between Dems and Repugs.

Tonight I ask you to pass legislation to prohibit the most egregious abuses of medical research -- human cloning in all its forms ... creating or implanting embryos for experiments ... creating human-animal hybrids ... and buying, selling, or patenting human embryos. Human life is a gift from our creator -- and that gift should never be discarded, devalued, or put up for sale.

Gotta love the way he threw in his creationism bull****.

A hopeful society comes to the aid of fellow citizens in times of suffering and emergency -- and stays at it until they are back on their feet.



Yeah, societies other than this one.

As we recover from a disaster, let us also work for the day when all Americans are protected by justice, equal in hope, and rich in opportunity.

I think I'll have the opportunity to breastfeed Gary Coleman before any of that happens.

That did really jump out at me from the rest of the Bu****.Maybe some footage of the "Island of Dr. Moreau " got spliced with his Teleprompter cues.

Except it is he who knocked us on our asses. Lying, smug, deluded, dumb bastard.

Three different people came up to Ed Shultz yesterday talking about the job market, or lack thereof, and how it is affecting them. He said it was random, the people just approached him to tell him what was going on. Yet this president has the juevos to stand up there and say how well the economy is doing. Shame shame shame on him.

Statistics indicate the economy is recovering I mean I do not want to give any undue accolades to W, whom I despise, but facts are facts. I do think, however, that the number of jobs created has been far less than the economic recovery figures suggest should have been created. Thus, it is a relatively jobless (or lower rate new jobs) economic recovery.

Here are some sites:

Again - I give no praise to W other than the facts indicate.

I didnt watch SOTU. if the man's lips are moving, he's lying. However, I dont see a direct correlation between Bush thanking the Senate and equating Dems with Repugs. The Senate has more Repugs than Dems, so, in effect, he's thanking his rank and file. no surprise there. But, from the emails Ive gotten from the various groups I subscribe to and the posts on various Dem boards (including your Democratic Underground) I sense a new sense of battle fever. I think I am seeing a new rallying spirit, and a different attitude than I certainly expected...just when I thought all was lost, and that I was going to give up on my party, I see a new determination from many sectors, and I am amazed, humbled and ashamed of my prior bout of despair.

I could only watch for a few seconds at a time.

"The T-shirt bore the words “2,245 Dead — How Many More??” in reference to the number of U.S. troops killed in Iraq, protesters told NBC News."

Wow I forgot it was illegal to mention on a tshirt how many have died in a war--

[tynan88]

I found the speech poorly delivered and the applause from everyone in the room; democrat and republican alike really absolutely digusting.

Whoever decided to let that new governor give the reply speech; especially in the setting he did is an absolute moron, he looked and sounded uncomfortable and gave a limp-dick response to the most dangerous person in the world and letting him get away with it.

I don't think it is unreasonable to compare the democrats letting off Bush with Bush letting off Osama.
