Saddam Hussein, Ayatollah Khamenei, Fidel Castro, Raul Castro, al Qaeda in Mesopotamia, al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Muslim Brotherhood and the Taliban. These are some of the terrorists and state sponsors of terrorism Code Pink has given political, financial and/or material aid to since the group’s founding in late 2002.
Kristinn did try to warn everyone back in January.

They have to have permission to do this...so somebody is ‘designing” these mis-matches from the WhiteHouse...Valerie Jarrett and Michelle Obama come to mind.

At Thursday’s event, they made no apologies for disrupting Cruz, saying they had a constitutional right to be there.

You do not have the right to take away other's civil rights. That is moral equivalent of an act of war.

Thank you, Concerned Women for America for organizing this rally and exposing Code Pink for what it is.

They had a constitutional right to be there? Perhaps they had a constitutional right to disrupt someone else's constitutional right. Hardly a day goes by that we don't learn about a new "constitutional right".

Code Pink - a bunch of old nags with nothing better to do. They're democrat activists! Hello! It has nothing to do with "war" or they'd be all over obomas a$$ for what he's done in the middle east and restarting the cold war!
What a bunch of old, disgusting losers. As a woman, they embarrass me. I bet they smell awful, too.

Press Secretary Josh Earnest declined to comment on the event other than to say: "I was aware that Sen. Cruz was planning to hold a pro war rally in front of the White House today."

It was not a "pro war rally"- it was a rally against the disastrous Iran deal.

(How bizarre that supposedly anti-war code pink is for a deal that gives Iran nuclear capability.)

This was obviously a set up and Cruz was cool under fire- as usual.

How many of the other Republican presidential candidates could have handled this situation without bumbling, stumbling, stammering, and playing right into the MSM trickery?

(Any presidential candidate must have the ability to understand, and be able to counter media attacks- Taking this into account helps narrow the '16 presidential field down to 3 or 4-with Cruz at the top of that list.)

Well whatever appetite I had is now gone. Good picture for me to look at while I am on my treadmill.

No doubt a Wal-Mart shopper, I imagine the electric carts are broken at her store.

I will go out on a limb here and say that panties probably are not an option here.

“From a different article:

“Afterward, Cruz continued the discussion with Code Pink activist Nate Atwell...[t]he two strolled through the park, surrounded by a scrum of cameras, to the occasional catcall of “Warmonger!” and “Trump for president!”

Atwell, 24, said he came away impressed with Cruz, even though he did not share his views. “He’s so much smarter than he appears to be on the television,” he said.”

This is by far the MOST important part of the entire article and the one that Really, Really scares liberals.

Ted Cruz knows how to plant the seeds of changing the minds of confused leftists. That person may not become a conservative today or even tomorrow, but the idea and argument was planted there to at least give them a chance to digest it. That is Reaganesque. Where else is a hardcore leftist going to get a decent one-on-one talk with someone about conservative principles and come away “impressed”.

THIS is how you change the hearts and minds of a country on the wrong path. Sorry, Donald Trump will NEVER be able to accomplish something like this since he isn’t a conservative at heart. But Ted Cruz most certainly can.

Cruz can get leftists to do something no other candidate can: Trust him without changing his views.

Cruz isn’t just vying for votes of Reagan Democrats. He’s actually trying to make new conservative converts.

This is how he wins in a landslide in 2016 if given the chance.
