Cindy Sheehan, meet Beverly Young, wife of Conservative Republican Bill Young.
Like you Cindy, Ms. Young was also kicked out for wearing a t-shirt:
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. --The wife of Rep. C.W. Bill Young, R-Indian Shores, told a newspaper that she was ejected during the State of the Union address for wearing a T-shirt that says, "Support the Troops Defending Our Freedom."
Beverly Young told the St. Petersburg Times that she was sitting in the front row of the House gallery Tuesday night when she was approached by someone who told her she needed to leave.
That sounds very similar to Cindy's story:
I had just sat down and I was warm from climbing 3 flights of stairs back up from the bathroom so I unzipped my jacket. I turned to the right to take my left arm out, when the same officer saw my shirt and yelled; "Protester." He then ran over to me, hauled me out of my seat and roughly (with my hands behind my back) shoved me up the stairs. I said something like "I'm going, do you have to be so rough?"
Which is worse, overzealous Secret Service or overzealous, illiterate secret service?
