The reaction of the right wingers is very reminiscent of the reaction to the Vietnam War protestors in the 1960's. Many of Vietnam hawks crowd in the 1960's had bumper stickers that read "America: Love It or Leave It." People like Sean Hannity, Herman Cain, Eric Cantor etc. have no understanding of what America is all about. They do not understand that the main reason we have Freedom of Speech is to protect "political" free speech, like we are seeing with Occupy Wall Street. Hats off to the protestors!

"charged with demonstrating in a Capitol building" - how sick is it that this is a chargeable offense?

This should be taken with a grain of sand. It is a bit too obvious but worthy of attention for educational and historical purposes.
