Sheehan arrested

Cindy Sheehan was arrested at the SOTU speech.

Sheehan, whose son was killed in Iraq, opened her jacket to reveal a T-shirt that, according to a supporter, gave the number of U.S. war dead and asked, "How many more?"

She was also vocal, said U.S. Capitol Police Chief Terrance W. Gainer, and after she ignored instructions to close her jacket and quiet down, she was led out and arrested. Demonstrating in the House gallery is prohibited.

A caller to Dennis Prager's show asserted Cindy Sheehan is not free, because she was arrested for protesting. Okay, she's not free to protest in the House gallery.

This reminds me of an interesting double standard. We've heard the media drumbeat, giving the tally of the number of soldiers killed in Iraq. To those who know how many soldiers have died in Iraq, I have one question: How many soldiers, to the nearest thousand, have died fighting in Kosovo?

(No fair Googling.)
