A protestor who believes President Obama wasn't born in the United States was arrested this morning for disrupting the reading of the Constitution in the House chamber.
The woman yelled out "except Obama" when Rep. Frank Pallone, D-N.J., read the clause in the Constitution that states only a "natural born citizen" may be president of the United States.
This stuff far exceeds the very best fictional comedy writing.
Michele Bachmann was briefly worried that the world could hear her thoughts.
What kind of reporting is that?

Heh - when I first read this I instantly thought of the practice by student sections of shouting "sucks" after the introduction of an opposing player's name. Carry on.

One interesting contrast for those that think Europeans are more prim and proper than Americans. In America you can get censured for a remark like that. In Europe you can get into a fist-fight on the parliament floor and nothing happens.

Yup, Terps fans are mainly punks, but that was just flat out funny.
