From the Houston Chronicle:
War protester Cindy Sheehan and several others pleaded not guilty today to charges of demonstrating without a permit outside the White House.
The protesters, who face fines and not jail time, were being tried this afternoon by U.S. Magistrate Alan Kay after several hours of talks with court officials about how quickly their trial could be wrapped up.
Before the trial began, Sheehan announced plans to revive her protest near President Bush's Texas ranch during Thanksgiving week, despite new county ordinances banning roadside camping.
