The First Amendment Is Dead Under the Bush Administration - Why Are You Continuing to Vote For Republicans?

ABC News is reporting on its website "DEMONSTRATOR CHARGED WITH TRYING TO INTIMIDATE CHINESE PRESIDENT AT THE WHITE HOUSE".

Here's what I've seen on video on the part of the heckler/demonstrator - rude behavior and her willingly being escorted out by the Secret Service (to jail it turns out).

Now there may be scenes of which I'm not aware that might change my mind, but I'm not getting a good feeling right now about the true reasons for the charge.

UPDATE: Here's the ABC News article: "China heckler at White House charged". Now I'm convinced she's being persecuted for unfavored speech.

Well she wasn't in a Free Speech Zone, so naturally she didn't have Free Speech at the time. Remember, everything changed after 9/11!!
