You have to be seriously devoted deranged to get arrested on behalf of Obama’s train wreck health care law.

COLUMBIA – Eleven protesters were arrested Tuesday for blocking a garage entrance to the Statehouse as they called on lawmakers to accept the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act.

The well-orchestrated protest was part of the Truthful Tuesday demonstrations that the South Carolina Progressive Network and other organizations have staged since lawmakers returned to Columbia in January.

About two dozen protesters met at the garage entrance south of the Statehouse, where they waved banners and signs at drivers making their way into the complex. Eleven protesters then took a few steps forward and blocked vehicles from making their way through.

Columbia police officers asked several times for the protesters to clear the road, but they refused to yield. After each arrest, an officer offered protesters the opportunity to clear the way without being arrested, but no one budged. The arrests were made without incident.
