Girl arrested for doodling on school desk

http://www.cnn.com

There was no profanity, no hate. Just the words, "I love my friends Abby and Faith. Lex was here 2/1/10 :)" scrawled on the classroom desk with a green marker.
Alexa Gonzalez, an outgoing 12-year-old who likes to dance and draw, expected a lecture or maybe detention for her doodles earlier this month. Instead, the principal of the Junior High School in Forest Hills, New York, called police, and the seventh-grader was taken across the street to the police precinct.

Bush called “that vision thing.”

Tea Party Movement Lights Fuse for Rebellion on Right

http://www.nytimes.com

A article on the Patriot and Tea Party movements. I believe that it shows the mind set of many of the people who go out and hold their flags to protest taxes. It also shows the inevitable co-opting of the movement by the established Republicans/neocons, along with a health dose of propaganda and fear mongering.
