Reply #6: the thing about this is....Mike Allen, Bush apologist extraordinaire,

[Gabi Hayes]

was on Washington Journal the other day, talking about this, and was very careful to make it sound as if this guy created a scene, made it sound very much like he was stopped, and arrested ON THE SPOT, because he'd created a clear danger to the VP, and said that ANYBODY who approaches somebody as exalted as that should EXPECT to be arrested!

he really said that crap, and it turns out NOT to be true

what a surprise

just as the doctor in NO who told Cheney to go FFFF himself, and was arrested some time later, the SS had no trouble with the initial encounter, obviously realizing that NO THREAT AT ALL existed at the time

wouldn't you love to know why they decided to arrest him after the fact, and what machinations went on before they made the decision?

Mike Allen can go FFFFF himself, the lying little weaselworm
