The President, Free Speech, and Men in Thongs

Arrested for forming a human pyramid, wearing only thongs, the "Smoketown Six" say they had a right to protest the Iraq War by recreating an Iraqi prison torture image. They wound up in an American jail. Protestors liken the policing at President Bush's events to the Vietnam era. Protestors are kept out of site, any hint that a person supports John Kerry gets him thrown out of a speech. Some protestors have won in court now -- but too late to get their message across.
