Upstaging BPs Tony Hayward

From The Huffington Post:

Gulf commercial shrimper Diane Wilson was arrested for interrupting BP CEO Tony Hayward's testimony on Capitol Hill. Hayward barely started his opening statement when Wilson, painted to look like she had oil on her, shouted, ""You need to be charged with a crime!"

Wrestling a screaming woman to the ground and then handcuffing her seems like the correct visual before Mr. Hawyard's dead-pan, corporate PR-soaked testimony.
