Would someone please get a screen grab of the Kos diary page before it gets taken down and post the image to this thread?

Thanks.

TomGuy, can you do as kristinn requests in post #1? or has the page already been taken down?

You mean this page?

It already has over 300 replies too...

Yesterday Code Pink member Desiree Farooz rushed the stage and came dangerously close to President Bush at Monticello. The weekend before she rushed John McCain. Last fall she got close enough to Condoleeza Rice to place her hands around the Secrtary of State's head.

The Secret Service catalogs threats and potential threats, they know their IDs, where they live, their backgrounds, MOs, what circles they rotate in, and many of them have their movements monitored.

If this same individual has done this multiple times, how is it possible for her to get anywhere near one of these events with or without fraudulent ID?

kristinn said someone please do a “screen capture” because he was thinking that the evidence of code pink using faked credentials to get into events where they can disrupt and even rush the stage, could be removed from that page, and the proof would be gone.

The folks at “Kos” have been quite busy lately with forgeries..........

[cmsgop]

That was very disturbing how close that deranged BeeOtch to President Bush, I was very surprised that agent was so lax about it...

Q: "How does the pro-terrorist group Code Pink infiltrate closed events where the U.S. Secret Service is in charge of security?"

A: They ride in on brooms under a sisters-of-doom mirage-vapor spell?

You nailed 'em dude! I'd print out hard copies of everything you collect off that site and then Fed Ex them to the Secret Service first thing Monday morning, just to be sure that the proper officials receive them.

I'd also send copies of everything to the State Department Security Service

AND the U.S. Capitol Police

If this doesn't result in SOME kind of appropriate action against this bunch of crazies, then I don't know what will.

Here is a small version. If Freepmail can handle an 8.5MB file I can send you the full scale version.

Anyone can print up a media ID. That and two bucks will get you a cup of coffee.

The only media credentials that count are the ones produced by the sponsors of an event. If they were printing fake Whitehouse credentials, that would be a real crime.

All they have is a bogus company ID. It is up to the sponsors of the event to decide if they will let them in.

For example,to cover a presidential event, you would have to get approval from the White House. The White House generally requires evidence of employment in the media (they do check), Government issued picture ID, advance reporting of full ID info, including social security number for a background check, then security screening prior to being issued a pass for the event.

Otherwise unknown media outlets will be required to show proof of publication, including tearsheets, before they will even be considered for admission.

Hey Mark, check this out!

I’ve got it copied and see someone else already posted it- will keep it on file if needed.

These people are ignorant fools.

[Eroteme]

Good points, good questions.

I would add that the press also knows who Desiree and Medea are. To imagine that these misfits go unnoticed hiding out in the midst of press is nonsense. They’re being given safe haven; if not out of sympathy for the cause, then for more “exciting” footage.

[txradioguy]

I’ve got it screen capped too.

[jrooney]

Excellent post! Thanks for keeping us and the SS informed.

[kristinn]

Thank you! Check your freepmail.

Me as well; screen-captured (as a 1.1 MB GIF) and also saved as HTML (233 KB).

Yesterday Code Pink member Desiree Farooz rushed the stage and came dangerously close to President Bush at Monticello.

Desiree Farooz is a PALESTINIAN. Considering past problems with Palestinians and American politicians, I would hope the Secret Service would take this matter very seriously.
