Activist Mom Arrested During Anti-war Protest At White House
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9, 2006
(AP) Activist Cindy Sheehan has been arrested again as she led about 50 protesters to a White House gate Wednesday to deliver anti-war petitions she said were signed by 80,000 Americans.
The petitions opposed use of military force to resolve the festering dispute over Iran's nuclear program.
The California woman whose son was killed in Iraq more than two years ago was taken into custody with three other women on the sidewalk outside the White House gate, said Lt. Scott Fear, a U.S. Park Police spokesman. They were charged with interfering with a government function, he said.
"It was taking too long for them to decide whether to accept them or not, so we just delivered them," said Sheehan. The petitions were tossed over the wrought-iron fence after the protesters waited about 15 minutes without a response.CBS (http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/11/09/national/main2165318.shtml)
How long before the Democrats, now that they've "got the power," will want her out of the way? And how long till they make sure she is?
Watch yer back, Cindy. You've outlived your usefulness.
