Am I in Some Weird Parallel Universe?
Bono and ????? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WTF!!!!!!!!!!
I don't want to live in a country that prohibits any person, whether he/she has paid the ultimate price for that country, from wearing, saying, writing, or telephoning any negative statements about the government. That's why I am going to take my freedoms and liberties back. That's why I am not going to let Bushco take anything else away from me...or you.

Woolsey Statement Regarding Cindy Sheehan
February 1, 2006
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- U.S. Representative Lynn Woolsey (D-Petaluma) today
issued the following statement regarding Cindy Sheehan’s arrest in the
gallery of the House of Representatives before the State of the Union
address. Mrs. Sheehan was Rep. Lynn Woolsey’s guest to the President’s
State of the Union address.
“Since when is free speech conditional on whether you agree with the
President? Cindy Sheehan, who gave her own flesh and blood for this
disastrous war, did not violate any rules of the House of Representatives.
She merely wore a shirt that highlighted the human cost of the Iraq war
and expressed a view different than that of the President. Free speech and
the First Amendment exist to protect dissenting statements like Ms.
Sheehan’s last night.
“Stifling the truth will not blind Americans to the immorality of sending
young Americans to die in an unnecessary war, against a nation that posed
no threat to our security. The President's speech last night was yet
another attempt to distort history, as he suggested -- once again -- that
the 9/11 terrorists came from Iraq. Everyone knows this is not true. We
must not be afraid to say that the emperor has no clothes. It's time to
bring our troops home.”
