Dead Soldier's Mom Arrested After Interrupting Laura Bush


POSTED: 12:24 pm EDT September 16, 2004
UPDATED: 12:46 pm EDT September 16, 2004
HAMILTON, N.J. -- A Hopewell woman whose son was killed while serving in Iraq was arrested Thursday after she interrupted a campaign speech by first lady Laura Bush.

Sue Niederer had refused to leave the rally and demanded to know why her son was killed in Iraq. She was eventually escorted from the rally site, a local firehouse, by police.

Niederer wore a T-shirt that bore the words "President Bush You Killed My Son" and a picture of her son, Army 1st Lt. Seth Dvorin.

2. answer the question, facists...
why are these people dying?

Seems like a valid question, to me. :shrug:

Oh, and don't try and tell me they're dying for freedom. That's hogwash. :grr:

3. That is just so cold!
Mrs. Bush should have ditched her prepared text to offer sincerest condolences to that woman and her family, and should have thanked that woman for her son's ultimate sacrifice for all of us. Mrs. Bush should then have parroted her husband's insistence that we are fighting for our freedoms in Iraq, and that our brave soldiers are not dieing in vain.

Mrs. Bush showed no sense, no poise, and, most importantly, no compassion.

I hope that this is all over the news!

5. But why do that when the Secret Service and police are standing by?
Then your audience can growl and jeer, and you can just hop, skip and jump back to Happy White House Prozac World in seconds flat!

7. Don't count on it
but she had a right to ask the question... and Laura showed that just like her mother in law, she has no time to trouble her beautiful mind with the dead

8. Oh, it will be...
"Crazed anti-war protestor shouts down First Lady...is dragged out and arrested like the America-hating dog she is...."

Film at 11. :eyes:

11. Before being dragged through the streets and pelted with broken bottles
Her traitorous utterings ended once and for all when she was enclosed in an iron coffin with spikes on the inside!

All hail the Chosen Bush!

6. disgusting cold hearted bitch
laura bush has no care for the poor woman who lost her kid. anyone who cared would have at least said something like she would like to speak with her after the speech is over or at least ask they not arrest her .

this wasn't just any protestor but a woman who lost her son who was fighting in war. but laura bush doesn't care about her.

10. Give Laura a break. She could have knocked her down and kicked
her, but she didn't.

/sarcasm off

13. Sue Niederer was interviewed
by Deborah Norville the other day - along with a pro-chimp father who'd also lost a son in Iraq. Ms. Niederer looked devastated by the ordeal she's been through. This woman deserves some answers, and to have been dragged off and arrested is simply unconscienable.

This would be a PR disaster for chimp if the networks covered it, but I'm not holding my breath.
