Sen. Carl Levin Gets a Pie Thrown at Him
A woman accused of hitting Democratic Sen. Carl Levin in the face with an apple pie during the Armed Services Committee chairman's constituent meeting in northern Michigan is due in court.
Twenty-two-year-old Ahlam M. Mohsen of Coldwater will be arraigned Tuesday. She is being held without bond after being arrested Monday on a felony charge of stalking, and misdemeanor counts of assault and disorderly conduct.
Levin took a question near the end of Monday's meeting in Big Rapids, 150 miles northwest of Detroit, from a man who read a long statement. A woman then hit Levin with a pie.
Mohsen told the Big Rapids Pioneer she hoped "to send a message that liberals and Democrats are just as implicated in the violence (of war) as the Republicans."
She has no listed telephone number in Coldwater.

"He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do" Rep. Henry Waxman (D, CA), Oct. 10, 2002-Truth!
"In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological
weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program.
He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members. It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons."

He's guilty of criminal conduct in failing to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, failure to secure the borders, complicity in the needless waging of two wars, the reckless and irresponsible increasing of the national debt limits, and on and on...
If all she hit him with was a pie, he ought to be glad about it!
If she gets a harsh sentence, it'll come back to haunt him with the voters! I'd bet on it!

I hope the senator liked his pie. Maybe some ice-cream next time.
