*****BREAKING NEWS*****

Cindy Sheenan (above, America’s cutest little Jihadist this side of Cynthia McKinney,) apparently the guest of Lynn Woolsey, was as of moments ago, reportedly taken OUT of the gallery of the House for trying to unfurl a banner! She had planned TO be in the galley earlier, according to a breaking story on Drudge!

Updates to come…….

************************UPDATE FROM DRUDGE!********************************

Breitbart breaks it out!

Jan 31 9:07 PM US/Eastern

WASHINGTON

Activist Cindy Sheehan, who was invited to President George W. Bush’s State of the Union speech, has been arrested, according to CNN.

Sheehan, who was invited to attend the address by California’s Democratic Rep. Lynn Woolsey, was reportedly already seated in the House chamber when she was detained, CNN said.

A Capitol police official reportedly said Sheehan had unfurled a banner, which is a violation of House rules.

Parents of fallen soldiers have been special guests at Bush’s State of the Union speeches. But Sheehan was one invited guest he couldn’t have been eager to see: Sheehan, gained international fame with her anti- war protest outside Bush’s Texas ranch last year.

“I’m proud that Cindy’s my guest tonight,” Woolsey said in an interview before the speech, and reported arrest. “She has made a difference in the debate to bring our troops home from Iraq.”

Sheehan’s vigil in memory of her 24-year-old soldier son Casey, who was killed in Iraq, reinvigorated the anti-war movement. Woolsey had offered Sheehan a ticket to the speech as Sheehan attended an “alternative state of the union” press conference by CODEPINK, a group promoting the end of the Iraq war.

FURTHER UPDTATE ON CINDY BY BREITBART!

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.

Schneider said Sheehan had worn a T-shirt with an anti-war slogan to the speech and covered it up until she took her seat. Police warned her that such displays were not allowed, but she did not respond, the spokeswoman said.

Police handcuffed Sheehan and removed her from the gallery before Bush arrived. Sheehan was to be released on her own recognizance, Schneider said.

“I’m proud that Cindy’s my guest tonight,” Woolsey said in an interview before the speech. “She has made a difference in the debate to bring our troops home from Iraq.”

Woolsey offered Sheehan a ticket to the speech _ Gallery 5, seat 7, row A _ earlier Tuesday while Sheehan was attending an “alternative state of the union” press conference by CODEPINK, a group pushing for an end to the Iraq war.

Sheehan was arrested in September with about 300 other anti-war activists in front of the White House after a weekend of protests against the war in Iraq. In August, she spent 26 days camped near Bush’s ranch in Crawford, Texas, where he was spending a working vacation.

I have to say, I wasn’t really shocked at what I saw when I was watching “City in Fear” tonight, a true crime story on the “MSNBC Investigates” series. This report was about Richard Ramirez, also known as “The Night Stalker,” who gripped not only the Los Angeles area, but the entire state of California, in fear with his brutal rapes, murders, and tortures during the mid-80s.

According to Court TV’s Crime Library, “The police were baffled. But, in the months to come, they were to encounter a madman whose lust for killing and depravity equaled, if not surpassed, that of Jack the Ripper or, more contemporary, the Hillside Strangler. Soon to be named the “Night Stalker” by the press, this madman bore, according to true crime author Richard L. Linedecker, “the horror in his soul of a Stephen King or a Clive Barker fright novel – and more.” A Freddy Kruger. For real.”

The police and L.A. Sheriff, Sherman Block, had finally gotten the true identify of the “Night Stalker,” and they were withholding that and other key factors about the case known only to the police and Ramirez, and this information had clearly been marked “For Law Enforcement Only.” They were most disheartened to see any lead they might have had in their investigation be blown…. on national TV, no less; by none other than then-mayor of San Francisco, Diane Feinstein.

As most police officers know, you never “deal your full hand” to the media when trying to solve brutal crimes, or any high-profile crime for that matter. The police did not have AFIS (the finger-print database), DNA, or many other sophisticated tools that we have today for crime scene investigation. They relied on wit, cunning, and skill as investigators. Sometimes it is best to leave some things unknown to the public; something that only the perpetrator and the police would know. When major crimes happen anywhere, especially serial or mass murders, many psychopaths try to claim responsibility for these crimes due to their notariety and desire for spotlight; but if they don’t know that one important fact that is known only to law enforcement and the true killer, they can easily be elimininated, thus less investigative time is wasted.

Enter Mayor Feinstein. As the then-Sheriff says, “some agencies released more information than they should have,” but I would think someone in the position of Mayor should have known that releasing such details might harm the investigation (I would hope that she would have consulted law enforcement before the press briefing, but apparently she didn’t). Leave it to a power-hungry politician to jump the gun and ruin all of the investigation that had been done thus far. Now, Richard Ramirez, “The Night Stalker,” previously unknown, knew exactly what the police knew of his identity, his crime scenes, signature, and for all we know, he may have been enabled to continue his killing spree for longer than he might have been.

You might be thinking I’m stretching it a bit, saying Mayor Feinstein was just ‘looking out for the community,” but wouldn’t you have expected her to consult the investigators before doing so? Whatever you think, I believe it shows you that certain politicians not only can’t be trusted with matters of local security; but now this particular politician is privvy to issues of national security, and I have to wonder if she can be trusted at all? She’s on the Senate Committee for Homeland Security! It’s no wonder she’s been aghast at the uncovering of the NSA’s secret terrorist spying program, probably claiming she didn’t know about it. But should she have? She’s certainly shown her colors when speaking about the administration’s policy on gathering foreign intelligence and dealing with terrorist threats, whether abroad or at home. I trust Pres. Bush and our military commanders more than I do any senators or congressmen.

Oh, you’re offended? Ask me if I care…..

Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center today wrote a brilliant piece in Townhall.com about the glorification of rap “music” and those who spew it out for play on the airwaves. This glorification of the gory, greedy lifestyles of the gang culture have been assaulting us for a long time now.

The most recent exposition of this was the Hollywood love affair with long-time Crips gang member and co-founder, Tookie Williams. They went to great lengths to get Americans (and the world) to feel sorry for this career thug, overlooking the victims of his crimes, to which, I might add, he confessed to killing early on. He was convicted of the murders in 1981 of Albert Lewis Owens, 25, Tsai-Shen Yang, 63, her husband Yen-Yi Yang, 63, and their daughter Ye-Chen Lin, 43 - all murdered in 1979.

Brent Bozell states the case beautifully:

Turn on a pop radio station today and you’re likely to get an earful of stupidity. I don’t mean the kind of innocent dumb pop song of the old days. I mean songs that glorify lust and greed stupidly.

One of the biggest radio hits right now is Nelly’s song “Grillz,” all about the goofy new rapper trend of “grills,” diamond-encrusted dentures over a full set of teeth, like the one worn by his rapping partner on the song, a white “artist” named Paul Wall. At its low point, Nelly urges the audience to “rob da jewelry store and tell ‘em make me a grill.”

For lust and greed, it’s hard to top “My Humps,” by the Black Eyed Peas. The man in the song asks what his lady’s going to do with “all that junk” in her trunk. She replies she will get him “love drunk on my hump … my lovely lady lumps.” Why seduce him? For greed. She lists the fashionably expensive brands he will buy her: Dolce and Gabbana, Fendi and Donna Karan, and jeans by Seven and True Religion. Those designer-label jeans at fancy department stores go for $175 to $300 a pair. It’s what stupid people buy.

But there’s competition from the new song from B4L called “Laffy Taffy,” which has all the usual oral-sex metaphors (I won’t bother with examples), and the chorus asks the girl to shake her “laffy taffy” about eight times in every chorus. It’s infected with a serious case of stupid.

But the dumbest rapper of the new year is Kanye West, who is boldly going to that final frontier of egomania, the Jesus comparison. He’s pictured on the cover of the new Rolling Stone magazine with a crown of thorns on his head and blood on his face, a persecuted martyr. The cover reads “The Passion of Kanye West.” That’s pretty bold for a millionaire superstar rapper. Perhaps it’s a crucifixion at the hands of people who took issue with him — how dare they! — for ruining a Red Cross TV hurricane fundraiser with his wild, divisive bleatings about white racism, soldiers shooting at blacks, and President Bush’s disdain for black people.

I just don’t understand it all. When are we going to wake up as a nation and realize that our country is going to hell in a proverbial handbasket, as long as society accepts this crap as the norm? We not only have the garbage that the rappers spew out, but we have these games now - like Grand Theft Auto,where you can get points and extra ammo for killing cops, and get rewarded with sex with prostitutes for going to higher levels of the game, etc., ad nauseum. The list goes on and on, and painfully on.

The bastardization of our culture is rapidly taking over, and we, as what Nixon called “The Silent Majority,” need to take a stand and denounce this LOUDLY and COMPLETELY! We WILL NOT STAND for this normalization of cultural ideas that should not be allowed in our society. We will do so only at the polls in 2006 and 2008 - and by letting your elected representatives know how we feel. We can be “silent” no more - we have to act, and act now!

FOX NEWS EXCLUSIVE

I doubt very much that I will see this anytime soon on the MSM outlets, but H&C had the EXCLUSIVE tonight with former Saddam General, Georges Sada, who is the author of the new book, “Saddam’s Secrets.”

Tonight he told Sean and Bob Beckel, all about Saddam’s WMDs, nuke plans, what happened to all of it, and where it was taken. He also provided some insight as to which countries aided and abetted Saddam, and about how Saddam knew what and when we were going to act; i.e., waited until just the right time to get rid of his WMDs so we wouldn’t find them (although I still maintain that we did… just not in as voluminous numbers as we could have).

Mr. Sada gets semi-challenged by Beckel, and you can tell Beckel is ITCHING to ask him if he was guilty of the same crimes since he was a soldier for Saddam’s army. Hello… earth to Beckel! He’s COMING OUT now and helping us, giving us information about the crap we KNEW was there! Haven’t you ever heard of “plea bargain?” Beckel is an asshat, but I kind of agree with Gribbit… it’s almost a nice reprieve from Alan, and DEFINITELY better than Susan “Carol Channing” Estrich!

After yesterday’s brutalization of America and her troops by Joel Stein in the L.A. Times(up), Hugh Hewitt did a BRILLIANT interview with him. What’s more amazing than the fact that Stein admits several times over that he is not very educated, is the fact that he stays on with Hugh so long to take his verbal beating! TRUE excellence, and dressing-down, of a liberal at its FINEST!

Hugh includes the audio of the interview in a downloadable .MP3 file.

Here’s just a portion of the transcript which can be found at Radio Blogger:

HH: Do you support the troops presently deployed along the Colombian border in the battle with FARC, when FARC slaughters whole villages of people, our Special Forces down there. Do you think that’s a good thing?

JS: I don’t…in my opinion, I don’t think the U.S. military should be a police force.

HH: So you don’t want them in Colombia?

JS: I don’t, no.

HH: We have troops in Yemen, Mongolia, Jabuti, all across the globe in the Global War On Terror. Do you support those troops?

JS: It really…uh, the straight up troops? Or do you mean like…it really depends on the activity, but no, I don’t…I don’t believe that our forces should be a police force.

HH: And so, you would withdraw from everywhere in the world?

JS: But again, I think you’ve had people on your show, and you’ve got people much smarter than me, obviously, who are against the war. I mean, just have a simple argument against the war, for the war isn’t what I mean to do with that column at all. I think that’s been hashed out over time, and…

HH: I want to make sure I quote it correctly. “I don’t support our troops. This is a particularly difficult opinion to have, especially if you are the kind of person who likes to put bumper stickers on his car.” Evidently, supporting the troops is a bumper sticker position?

JS: It’s not. Supporting the troops is. I think a lot of people have bumper stickers, and really don’t do anything else, and are against the war, and have the bumper sticker anyway.

HH: “And at the end, I’m not advocating that we spit on returning veterans like they did after Vietnam.” That’s big of you. “But we shouldn’t be celebrating people for doing something we don’t think was a good idea.” What I’m trying to figure out is what do you think is a good idea for the military to do?

JS: Well, again, that’s not what my column was about, and that’s something that people talk about constantly, and people give opinions on. There’s a lot of Americans who are against this war and still think we should have a military.

HH: Now wait. This is the last…well, let me give you the two last paragraphs of your column. “I’m not advocating that we spit on returning veterans like they did after the Vietnam War. But we shouldn’t be celebrating people for doing something we don’t think was a good idea. All I’m asking is that we give our returning soldiers what they need: hospitals, pensions, mental health, and a safe and immediate return. But please no parades. Seriously, the traffic is insufferable.” So you obviously do not honor their service?

JS: I don’t honor their service? The people serving in Iraq right now?

HH: Yeah.

JS: I honor them as human beings, and I want them home safe.

HH: But you don’t honor their service?

JS: And honestly, I think that all these…for people who don’t believe in the war and are putting up these stickers saying they support the troops anyway, my fear is that it’s prolonging the war and putting them in further danger they don’t need to be in.

Speaks volumes, doesn’t it folks? Transparency is our greatest ally. We all know what their agenda is (or lack of), and it’s gleefully out of touch with mainstream America.

Geez-o-petes. As with the previous “feel good” article, I can’t (nor do I want to) embellish, editorialize or enhance this liberal piece of dog squeeze.

This was printed in the Opinions section of the L.A. (Looney Always) Times today, by author Joel Stein. I’ll let him dig his own proverbial grave as one of the world’s most prodigious ass-hats of today (remember, Sean Penn was hired by the LA times to go over and “report” on the elections in Iran. Penn also decided to take his rowboat and go rescue the poor, dis-enfranchised in New Orleans)…..

JOEL STEIN:
Warriors and wusses

I DON’T SUPPORT our troops. This is a particularly difficult opinion to have, especially if you are the kind of person who likes to put bumper stickers on his car. Supporting the troops is a position that even Calvin is unwilling to urinate on.I’m sure I’d like the troops. They seem gutsy, young and up for anything. If you’re wandering into a recruiter’s office and signing up for eight years of unknown danger, I want to hang with you in Vegas.

And I’ve got no problem with other people — the ones who were for the Iraq war — supporting the troops. If you think invading Iraq was a good idea, then by all means, support away. Load up on those patriotic magnets and bracelets and other trinkets the Chinese are making money off of.

But I’m not for the war. And being against the war and saying you support the troops is one of the wussiest positions the pacifists have ever taken — and they’re wussy by definition. It’s as if the one lesson they took away from Vietnam wasn’t to avoid foreign conflicts with no pressing national interest but to remember to throw a parade afterward.

Blindly lending support to our soldiers, I fear, will keep them overseas longer by giving soft acquiescence to the hawks who sent them there — and who might one day want to send them somewhere else. Trust me, a guy who thought 50.7% was a mandate isn’t going to pick up on the subtleties of a parade for just service in an unjust war. He’s going to be looking for funnel cake.

Besides, those little yellow ribbons aren’t really for the troops. They need body armor, shorter stays and a USO show by the cast of “Laguna Beach.”

The real purpose of those ribbons is to ease some of the guilt we feel for voting to send them to war and then making absolutely no sacrifices other than enduring two Wolf Blitzer shows a day. Though there should be a ribbon for that.

I understand the guilt. We know we’re sending recruits to do our dirty work, and we want to seem grateful.

After we’ve decided that we made a mistake, we don’t want to blame the soldiers who were ordered to fight. Or even our representatives, who were deceived by false intelligence. And certainly not ourselves, who failed to object to a war we barely understood.

But blaming the president is a little too easy. The truth is that people who pull triggers are ultimately responsible, whether they’re following orders or not. An army of people making individual moral choices may be inefficient, but an army of people ignoring their morality is horrifying. An army of people ignoring their morality, by the way, is also Jack Abramoff’s pet name for the House of Representatives.

I do sympathize with people who joined up to protect our country, especially after 9/11, and were tricked into fighting in Iraq. I get mad when I’m tricked into clicking on a pop-up ad, so I can only imagine how they feel.

But when you volunteer for the U.S. military, you pretty much know you’re not going to be fending off invasions from Mexico and Canada. So you’re willingly signing up to be a fighting tool of American imperialism, for better or worse. Sometimes you get lucky and get to fight ethnic genocide in Kosovo, but other times it’s Vietnam.

And sometimes, for reasons I don’t understand, you get to just hang out in Germany.

I know this is all easy to say for a guy who grew up with money, did well in school and hasn’t so much as served on jury duty for his country. But it’s really not that easy to say because anyone remotely affiliated with the military could easily beat me up, and I’m listed in the phone book.

I’m not advocating that we spit on returning veterans like they did after the Vietnam War, but we shouldn’t be celebrating people for doing something we don’t think was a good idea. All I’m asking is that we give our returning soldiers what they need: hospitals, pensions, mental health and a safe, immediate return. But, please, no parades.

Seriously, the traffic is insufferable.

Hey, while you’re being fitted for your wrap-around, long-sleeve jacket to wear in the nice, calm, padded room,
take comfort in the fact that you’re in good company with the likes of “Jihad” Cindy Sheehan, Jesse “Race Warlord” Jackson, Al & Al (Sharpton & Gore), “Calypso” Louie, the Hildabeast, Jimmy “Peanut” Carter, Sandy “Pants” Burglar, Cynthia “the cutest little jihadist in the south” McKinney, and Slick Willy. This is a veritable “who’s who” for a Democratic romper room. Oh, hey… who is the milk monitor this week? Sit down and SHUT UP, Bill! I’m not talking about THAT kind of milk, you jackass pervert!

Just one more feather in the cap of Republicans who wind up being the winners in this “Gong Show” spectacle that has become the floundering Democrapic party.

If any of you have seen this video, you know what I’m talking about. If you haven’t, you should. I have been in contact with the producers of IraqiTruthProject.com. It is my hope that every man and woman of the world see this video. It’s not for children, but you can learn enough from it to teach your children about the TRUTH of what Saddam Hussein was all about. He himself was a WMD!

The producers of this DVD have given me a fantastic opportunity. The DVD normally sells for $19.95 each, and if you buy it together with the original documentary that was the inspiration for the main film, “Mass Graves,” you can buy both for $29.95 together. There is a shipping charge for those orders (but trust me, it IS one of the most significant and important DVD purchases you will EVER make, so don’t hesitate!)

But the best deal is this….according to my contacts at the IraqiTruthProject, if I personally order in lots of 10 DVDs or more, I can get them for $10 each - and they will pay the shipping! Here’s the content of the letter in which they responded to me (including their response to my original request). (Note: Their responses are in italics.)

So, if anyone is interested, please write me at MsUnderestimated@gmail.com. I will place orders for lots of 10 per order, if anybody shows an interest. I find it very heartening that he’s also getting this documentary shown in some colleges/universities as we speak.

Here’s the link to purchase/view a trailer of the video

Again, please email me to let me know if you want to purchase a copy or two. I’m personally buying at least 5 so that I can send them to my elected officials, and some liberal friends so they can see EXACTLY how important it was to take out Saddam!

Thank you!
