Benjamin is a frequent presence at national security speeches and hearings, and the White House seemed caught unaware of her attendance. A photographer who waited in line near Benjamin saw her wearing a bright green press pass like those handed out to the rest of the media at the event, the name "Susan Benjamin" written in ink.

This was probably the same person who asked the lady from the IRS the planted question.

Perfectly on cue.

Why does the left care about the Yemenis? The Arab world doesn’t. They’re about as useful to their “Muslim Brothers” as the Palestinians would be if they didn’t kill Jews.

We used to have a sheet of jokes about living in Saudi Arabia. One was “If you run over a Yemeni, go to the police station and collect your prize.”

How is it this little bitch and her ilk are able to get into places like this? They have to have help from someone well placed to be able to make it happen. Try telling the security people who handle this that you’re from Free Republic and you’ll be cuffed and stuffed and in a 8 by 10 cell so fast your head will spin.

How does one identify an "Obama drone speech"?

As near as I can tell, he drones every time he gives a speech.

I tried to listen, but the sound of both Obama’s voice and the Code Pink wacko’s voice was like nails on a chalk board. I couldn’t take more than a few seconds.

That’s why I said it’s a setup. Everyone knows her. I’m sure her message is off his target....Her interference then makes his speech broken and incomprehensible.

Is there nothing this administration won’t stage?

Obama is incoherent even without being interrupted.His annoying, clipped monotone voice literally gives me a headache, in addition to his message. I can't stand the sight or sound of him.

All intended for him to appear right of center when he is really left of the gutter.

On 23 May 2013, Benjamin heckled President Obama during a major foreign policy speech while he was speaking about closing Guantanamo Bay. Benjamin shouted at least three times and interrupted Obama's speech.

Medea Benjamin (born Susan Benjamin on September 10, 1952) is an American political activist, best known for co-founding Code Pink and, along with her husband, activist and author Kevin Danaher, fair trade advocacy group Global Exchange. Benjamin also was a Green Party candidate in 2000 for the United States Senate.
