1. oh my!

:popcorn:

"You killed my son you son of a bitch." Might be coming from the gallery.

Bush would wet his pants.

[Fridays Child]

2. I hope she stands, in silence, throughout the speech, the message being...

...we're in the same room and he still won't meet with me.

[rodeodance]

3. she is billed as leading the protest in the Mall.

[rodeodance]

4. she should be sitting next to Laura-that is her rightful place.

[orleans]

30. olberman just said she got a ticket from james woolsey.

(who's james woolsey?)

[The Backlash Cometh]

35. Not a chance it was James Woolsey. He's ex cia director, neo-con

[rodeodance]

5. Lynn Woosley gave it to her but Cindy is undecided--

Bay Area Congresswoman Lynn Woosley gave anti-war activist a gallery pass late Tuesday, just hours before the planned State of the Union speech. Sheehan was in Washington to protest the president during his national address, but then came word late Tuesday that she was invited to see the speech live.

A spokesman for Sheehan says as of 3:30 California time, she has not accepted the invitation. She will decide soon. The spokesman also said they Sheehan will be respectful and listen to the address if she does choose to attend.

9. Maybe I'll watch to see what happens!

I'll need a few :toast:

[hiley]

10. she would never get into the

Gallery pass or no pass.

[rodeodance]

11. I am thinking the same thing--her being a very active activist.

[hiley]

13. Bush could not handle that

the attention would be on Cindy not him..

[buzzard]

16. That would not bode well for the narcissist in him.n/t

[hiley]

25. boy, was I wrong!

:wow: would have never thought they would let Cindy that close.

[Tesla]

12. She should turn her back on him

[rodeodance]

14. "Sheehan will be respectful and listen to the address if...."

....A spokesman for Sheehan says as of 3:30 California time, she has not accepted the invitation. She will decide soon. The spokesman also said they Sheehan will be respectful and listen to the address if she does choose to attend.

[hiley]

15. yes that would be beautiful

wouldn't it?!

[mcscajun]

17. As a guest of her Congresscritter, she will do nothing inappropriate.

Anyone holding a gallery pass from their Congresscritter is a guest of that Representative; she's not going to do anything IN the Capitol. All bets are off AFTER the speech when she steps outside where the reporters are. :)

18. now for this i might watch...just to see him squirm

[babsbunny]

19. It Is Mentioned on KO that Cindy has a ticket!

[demnan]

20. She will be ignored

just like Helen Thomas.

[xiamiam]

21. ive got a feeling she will not be able to sit there and just listen to the

bushcrap....interesting thing about a with no personal agenda and nothing left to lose..shes already lost her most precious son...shes already been swiftboated and even people here are disparaging because she doesnt fit some mold they think she should fit in....im excited...she is going to do something...and the congressperson who gave her the ticket deserves kudos....bush cannot ignore her while thanking the soldiers and their familes...well, he will...but he is going to look stupid..

[babsbunny]

22. KO just said Cindy will be there!

GO CINDY! :toast:

[hiley]

24. Can't believe it !!!

This means something, I just am at a loss to know what..

[Reader Rabbit]

23. She should pull a Mrs. Alito...

...and run from the gallery crying. Hell, the second he says any BS about our brave soldiers, she should start to cry. That definitely would drag the cameras away from ol' Shit-fer-Brains.

[xiamiam]

26. pull a mrs alito....new american slang...funny..nt...but a good idea.

[Wheezy]

28. You mean...

...a Malito? :)

[lala_rawraw]

27. arrested with guest pass... nice

[Wheezy]

29. ooooh, get the scoop, lala! n/t

[0007]

37. WE'll soon find out what it was that took Cindy down.

I heard that it because she unfurled a banner.
