John Sidney McCain vs. The Librarian, Part Two

By GottaLaff

Funny story. Let me know if you've heard this one... See, there was this librarian, see. And John McCain had her kicked out of an event because she had this sign that said, "McCain = Bush". And you'd think that would be okay, but... oh... Shhh. The librarian is speaking out:
Where is the statement from McCain's staff in this story? And why did it take the Secret Service two days to claim they had nothing to do with my ouster? Also, the part about the security guard had me smiling. The DCPA's Suzanne Blandon seems to be saying that because he is not "a trained speaker," and because it was "the height of the moment," the words "Secret Service" just popped out of his mouth. Huh. [...]

Many of you have been inquiring about the status of legal proceedings. Colorado ACLU has deputized two attorneys to handle my case: criminal defense lawyer Pete Hedeen will take care of the trespassing charge. I will not pay a fine, I will not accept diversion. That leaves two options: dropped charges, or going to trial. After that is resolved, David Lane will proceed civilly.

Carol Kreck is a librarian and former Denver Post reporter who lives in Colorado.

I hope she throws the book at him. Pun intended.
