I was wrong.

Bet this gets some hits but since I posted it and got sucked in its up to me to clarify. And its really more telling of my beliefs both ways

I just love libs they are so upfront and honest. NOT

Quote:
UPDATE: When Originally Reported by Philip Rucker At the Washington Post it was reported as Obamacare Protesters at Senator Michael Bennet's Office. He has since changed his story to Joe Lieberman's office, and he isn't sure what they were protesting.
Hours before the rally began, Capitol Police arrested nine protesters in the Hart Senate Office Building and charged them with unlawful entry. It was unclear whether the protesters were affiliated with the Tea Party protests or were with other groups. They were arrested about 10 a.m. in the seventh-floor office of Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman
Roll Call is reporting that the protesters were from Code Pink not the health care protest group:
In an unrelated incident, nine activists were arrested in the Hart building, and they are being processed at police headquarters, but Roll Call is reporting that these were protesters from the opposite end of the political spectrum - Code Pink
. All the buildings in the Capitol complex remain open for now.

I apologize to Senator Bennet and most importantly to my readers for believing the mainstream media without getting a second source.

Since then there were Tea Party Protesters arrested...but in Nancy Pelosi's office apparently for Shredding copies of the House version of the healthcare bill.This is from the Plum Line Blog at WAPO:

A Dozen Demonstrators Arrested At Pelosi’s Office — Shredded Copies Of Health Bill
Looks like the demonstrators really are serious about storming the Congressional barricades.
A dozen people were arrested this afternoon in or just outside of Nancy Pelosi’s office, some for unlawful entry and others for disorderly conduct, the Capitol Police confirm, adding that some of the arrested were throwing papers around.
Four demonstrators were arrested for refusing to leave her office in the Canon House Office Building, and eight more were arrested for unlawful or disorderly conduct, Capitol Police spokesperson Kimberly Schneider tells our reporter, Amanda Erickson.
Apparently those who were arrested outside her office were also throwing papers in the hallway, the spokesperson says. It couldn’t immediately be determined what sort of papers the demonstrators were tossing or why the paperwork ticked them off.
This is less serious than arrests at Pelosi’s office in the Capitol itself would have been, but a dozen for unlawful entry and disorderly conduct is definitely noteworthy. More soon.
****************************************
Update: Pelosi spokesperson Drew Hammill confirms that the demonstrators were Operation Rescue people and that they were shredding copies of the health care bill.
Amanda Carpenter is reporting that one protester was "man-handled"
Things also got rough for Smart Girl Politics Founder Teri Cristoph who says she was physically rebuffed by a senior staffer for Rep. Gerry Connelly, Virginia Democrat.

Ms. Cristoph, a Burke resident, attended the "House call" event and attempted to meet with her congressman and interview him about health care legislation. When she arrived at the office she was questioned by Connelly's staff about her camcorder. They told her she was not permitted to video tape because she was not press. At this point, she says Mr. Connelly's Communications Director, George Burke, used some degree of force against her.

"He put his whole body into me so I would put the camera down," she said, although she noted it was not an aggressive assault. "He bumped into my right arm and his staffers saw it. I was shocked that he physically ran into me. it was not accidental."

Ms. Cristoph contacted the Washington Times about the incident at roughy 3pm. Multiple messages to Mr. Burke's cell phone and email over the last two hours have not been returned.
