Protester with blood-colored hands confronts Rice

(Updates with five arrested, quote from protester, charges)

WASHINGTON, Oct 24 (Reuters) - An anti-war protester waved blood-colored hands in U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice's face at a congressional hearing on Wednesday and shouted "war criminal!", but was pushed away and detained by police.

"The blood of millions of Iraqis is on your hands!" yelled the protester, Desiree Anita Ali-Fairooz of the Code Pink organization which often disrupts hearings on Capitol Hill with protests against the Iraq war.

Rice, an architect of President George W. Bush's Iraq policy, appeared unfazed by the incident, which occurred when she entered a House of Representatives meeting room to testify at a hearing on U.S. Middle East policy.

"Out!," shouted the chairman of the Foreign Relations committee, Rep. Tom Lantos, as plain-clothes security men and police hustled the woman away. The California Democrat also ordered the removal of several other Code Pink activists.

Capitol Police said later five people were arrested, including Ali-Fairooz, who was charged with disorderly conduct and assault on a police officer.

Classless ignoramus! I’m still waiting for someone on the left to point out that the TERRORISTS are the ones killing the Iraqis. Our brave military is not doing this.

The head of security should be FIRED over this.

If the nut had had a weapon and other intentions, it could have turned out far worse.

This is inexcusable.

I blew a gasket and called everyone I could think of on Capital Hill today!

Sorry about the gasket. We all hope it gets better soon. So what did you call them? :)

I think she should have asked if that was the blood of all the Iraqis murdered by Hussein, the Afghanis murdered by the Taliban, the Asians murdered by the Vietcong and Cambodians, and the Israelis murdered by the P.L.O.

Or the blood of the unnecessary KIA's on both sides caused by the moonbats prolonging the fight by giving the Islamderthals the impression we are about to fold.

Murderous pacifists make me ill.

Hey, I think that this is great.

1)Makes is easy to tell who the idiots are when they stand up and announce it loudly.

2)Makes Republicans look good.

3)Makes Dems look bad.

Looks like a win-win-win to me....

Hey, isn’t that the fasting/fainting lady who keeled over in some congresscritter’s office a while ago?

This definitely should not have happened. Anyone who lets those Pinkos in to a meeting like this needs to be taken behind the woodshed for a re-education session.

How does security not see this nut and keep her out?

IMO, security is allowing these Pinkos in on purpose, to embarrass the Administration.

I had a chance one time to go to a congressional hearing.
You MUST have a pass from one of the rep’s (his office) sitting on the committee.

Did the Code Pinko pig beast actually touch her? Even her hair? Because that would be assault on a public official.

Check out the look on Dr. Rice’s face, she wanted to smack the $h*t out of that beotch! I hope that weirdo didn’t have real blood on her hands.
