This week we reported on the death of Muammar Gaddafi. We also has Fox News legal Analyst Lis Wiehl on the program, who for some unknown reason called in from a very noisy location. She explained why she feels that the actions of the Occupy Wall Street folk have been unacceptable, particularly their threats to tie up the legal system of New York over their civil disobedience arrests. Walt pointed out that the Boston Tea Party was also an act of deliberate civil disobedience in violation of the laws of colonial Massachusetts, but that didn't seem to matter to Ms. Wiehl.
