Wheelchair Bound Protesters Arrested Outside White House

From the AP:
U.S. Park Police say they have arrested 91 protesters in front of the White House, including some in wheelchairs who chained themselves to a fence.

The protesters are calling on the president to support legislation that would give people with disabilities in need of long-term care alternatives to nursing homes.
No word yet on whether Obama knew about the protest or not.

Also, Keith Olberman and company at MSNBC have apparently not--as of today--resorted to crude sexual references when discussing the protesters.
