Cindy Sheehan will be at the SOTU tonight – “A spokesman for Sheehan says she decided to accept the invitation two hours prior to the speech. The spokesman also said that Sheehan will be respectful and listen to the address because she is a guest of a member of congress.”

I don’t believe that for a nanosecond. If Sheehan actually does show up, and is allowed into the visitor’s gallery, it’s a sure bet she’ll make some kind of spectacle.

Extra – Lorie Byrd is torn: “But isn’t Cindy Sheehan a great representative of the modern day Democratic Party? Don’t we want to see her on television as often as possible? I have not yet made up my mind on this one.”

Follow-upThere she goes. There she goes again.

it's best for the GOP to have Cindy Sheenanigans on tv at regular intervals, but not too often.. nobody but the Birkenstock Brigade can tolerate her for more than a few minutes at a time.. if she had more 'real time' exposure, the average Donk would wake up and smell the Starbucks double-decaf and start to see why their party is hemorrhaging votes.. no, it's much better to keep Cindy's minutes of fame to under 15 minutes a week.. otherwise she'll start to come off just like the unleashed Tom Cruise of last year

"Cindy Sheehan, the mother of a fallen soldier in Iraq who reinvigorated the anti-war movement, was arrested and removed from the House gallery Tuesday night just before President Bush's State of the Union address, a police spokeswoman said.

Sheehan, who had been invited to attend the speech by Rep. Lynn Woolsey, D-Calif., was charged with demonstrating in the Capitol building, a misdemeanor, said Capitol Police Sgt. Kimberly Schneider. Sheehan was taken in handcuffs to police headquarters a few blocks away and her case was processed as Bush spoke."

What? A public protest that wasn't just purposely designed to attract attention, but which also occurred in a location that's inconvenient to the person or policy being protested? There's just no fathoming the drooling insanity of some people. Loony loony loony!

Police Apologize, Drop Charge Vs. Sheehan
WASHINGTON - Capitol Police dropped a charge of unlawful conduct against anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan on Wednesday and apologized for ejecting her and a congressman's wife from President Bush's State of the Union address for wearing T-shirts with war messages.

Awww. Another perfectly good snit... ruined!
