Jeez, you mean it wasn’t those crazed, fringe right-wingers?

Shocker.

From the Hartford Courant:

UConn student among those arrested at protest at Lieberman’s DC office

Nine health-care reform proponents were arrested this morning when they refused to leave Sen. Joseph Lieberman’s Washington office.

Among the arrestees was Brittany Florio, a student at the University of Connecticut. UConn grad John Mohrbacher was also charged.

The protesters are part of a group called Mobilization for Healthcare for All, which has organized civil disobedience actions in cities across the nation.

The group targeted Lieberman’s office because he indicated he would filibuster any healthcare bill that contains a public health insurance option.

“We’re focusing on him because he has said he would block the bill,” said Jason Ortiz, a UConn student from Norwich who is acting as the group’s spokesman.

The protesters entered Lieberman’s office at 9:45 this morning. They asked to speak with the senator, but were told he was not available.

Ortiz said the protestors came to Lieberman’s office to demand the senator return all the campaign contributions he received from Aetna through the years.

They were asked to leave and when they refused, Lieberman’s staff contacted police, Ortiz said. The protesters were still being processed early this afternoon. Ortiz said he did not know what the exact charge was, but said he believes it was criminal trespass.

What a bunch of pathetic, ignorant losers.

Interestingly enough, upwards of 10,000 conservative protesters show up and not a single incident. How ’bout that?
