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.” Right... as Ted Cruz was unaware that the White House would send out the Flying Monkeys.

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."

He's even smarter than that., my friend.

Cruz should know they have no right to disrupt his event.

“Free Speech” — to the Bolsheviks — has always meant shouting down opposing viewpoints.

“Bizarre” seems to be the MSM word of choice these days to describe anything effective being accomplished by a Republican presidential candidate.

... Reporters were disappointed once again with the Republican campaign which strangely refuses to follow the standard engagement and won’t be shouted down like every other conservative position. Demonstrators say they are determined to ensure that there will be no debate, period, on the issue, as the consensus has already decided. Calls from Cruz’s supporters as to just who this consensus was were, of course, ignored.

What a smarmy juvenile we have in the position of White House Press Secretary. This Administration articulate their positions via snarks and half-baked twits. Devolution at its finest.

Code Pink is not in favor of peace. They want nukes to be used against Israel.

Cruz at rally

“I recognize the folks in CodePink like to hold up signs saying ‘Peace with Iran,’” he continued. “Do you know who doesn’t reciprocate those views? Iran.”

“In all likelihood the next president is going to be faced with a binary choice: Either acquiesce in Iran’s acquiring nuclear weapons and risk allowing the annihilation of millions of Americans, or take direct military force to prevent it,” Cruz said.

Cruz also spoke about the 24-day notice before inspection.

“Imagine if we passed a law that said any drug lord, before you execute a search warrant on their premises gets 24 days notice,” he said. “I guarantee you 100 percent of those inspections of that drug lord, you’d never find drugs. That’s what we’ve set up with Iran.”

Actually, the Iran deal is pro-war as it will eventually force Israel to make pre-emptive strikes against Iran's nuclear installations.

“We want a peace president”

Reagan was a Peace President.

The current resident occupier is a Surrender President.

The only relevant question might be, "On whose behalf is he surrendering?"

Code Pink often makes headlines for its aggressive protest tactics...better said for their aggressve ‘counter” protest tactics.

Yes Ted Cruz is one of the very few in Washington who is still able to respond intelligently to issues & demagogues. One of the greatest tragedies is the precipitous decline in the level of public discourse over the past five or six generations. As a student of public debate, I find the stark reality of that decline as perhaps the single greatest threat to an American future. Our politics has been dumbed down to a point where Obama seems almost competent.

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.

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.
