#1 The woman is pathetic. Her wikipedia entry already has the arrest and the RNC convention in the past tense, as if they controlled both space and time. A good thing they don't, or we'd all be spinning off into the black vacuum due to the inexorable laws of physics, which can't be argued with.

#2 Nicely shot footage: Amy Goodman pinched by Imperial Stormtroopers. I confess I was hoping for more of a beat-down, though.

#3 Who is she and why should we care?

She got popped for failure to obey a police order to leave a riot area.

Post bail, pay the misdemeaner fine, and learn.

#4 Why learn? A little martyrdom always looks good on the resume

#5 OS - she is the voice of the commie "Democracy Now" on LinkTV 5 days a week. Also her radio station - Pacifica Radio.

Think central command for the left...

LinkTV.org where she stares out at you from this web page

#6 She, along with the majority of those detained during the RNC, were held on charges of "probably cause for riot".

"me fail English? That are unpossible!"

#7 The dry, humorless brand of liberal seems to be the most common these days.

#13 Is this the same democracy Now that's on NPR?

#14 Looks like she went there to get arrested on camera.
Mission accomplished.

#15 They should arrest her and put her through the system and then release her and delete all evidence she was ever arrested to keep her from getting any mileage out of it. You just know she's waiting for her mugshots to be posted on the internet.

#18 She missed her calling as a dominatrix.

#19 She's like Jane Goodall, hanging around with monkeys and all.

#20 Wikipedia entry: A 1984 graduate of Harvard University, Goodman is best known as the principal host of Pacifica Radio's Democracy Now! program, where she has been described by the Los Angeles Times as "radio's voice of the disenfranchised left".

There is a "disenfranchised left?" Hell, the MSM is the voice for the left.

#21 Well, whoever she is, she must be so excited! This could increase her name recognition beyond market of the underperforming venues willing to hire talentless mouthpieces for the left.
