Disturbing
.
WASHINGTON (AFP) "Six members of the peace activists Codepink stood up on their chairs in the VIP section as Bush gave his inaugural speech and shouted "bring the troops home!"

They were escorted out of the inaugural ceremony by the police, and two of the women were taken into police custody, the group said."

On the flip side, I'm heartily encouraged that so many protesters (and their signs) made it through the security. I honestly didn't expect that anyone would get to protest within sight of a news camera.
