On nonexistent threats

Bushco crosses yet another line that should never have been approached, as supporting American troops is now officially illegal. And no, that doesn't refer to Cindy Sheehan:
The wife of (Republican) Rep. C.W. Bill Young said she was ejected during President Bush's State of the Union address for wearing a T-shirt that said, "Support the Troops Defending Our Freedom," a newspaper reported Wednesday.

Beverly Young said 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...

"They said I was protesting," she said in a telephone interview with the newspaper Tuesday. "I said, 'Read my shirt, it is not a protest.' They said, 'We consider that a protest.' I said, 'Then you are an idiot.'"
Tough to argue with Young's take...but we all know far too well that that fact won't stop Bush's apologists from trying.
