I would happily pay for warning cards to be printed that could be handed out to patients..
"Be alert for anti-war psuedo-pacifists disguised as soccer Moms: They will attempt to use you to aid and abet the enemy."
Murphy had only lied about the budget, but was lying about Code Pink not being connected with the 3 disruptors who hassled us weeks ago.
She denied all knowledge and questioned why I was making up the story. I said I could email her the photos of the disruptors with their "Kill the Poor" signs. She said that she saw them, but the disruptors were not connected with Code Pink.
I told her that we have photos of the disruptors, including the loony who claimed to have a gun in his pocket, when they were making their signs with the Pinkos. She said that the three just happened to make their signs next to the Code Pink people.
Murphy's not even a very good liar, just a habitual liar.
Medea Benjamin claims that the Medea of the play was given a bum rap. Benjamin says that she had read an alternate translation in which Medea wasn't responsible for the death of her children. I immediately said, "let me guess, George Bush was responsible."
Benjamin probably just took the brown acid before she read it.
Thanks for the kind words. More importantly, thanks for your service.
Soooo sweet! Thanks for the post.
Good job... however somebody feels about the war, taking it out on our wounded is sick.
One question though... what's the story about the woman with the dead daughter... was that sign really tesing her about that? That doesn't seem consistant with the message.
Belatedly replying to your question about the woman with the dead daughter. It wasn't real her daughter.
Medea Benjamin's given name was Susan Benjamin, but thirty plus years ago she adopted the name "Medea." Medea was a character who murdered her children in a classic Greek play, but Benjamin told us that she read a different translation in which Medea did NOT kill her children. (I'm not sure whether she is being truthful about that alternate translation story.)
Marla Ruzicka, an activist who previously was with Global Exchange (Code Pink's parent organization), was killed by a IED in Iraq. Benjamin was like a mentor to Ruzicka and Benjamin said, following the death of the much younger activist, that Ruzicka "was like a daughter to me" (they were not related).
Thus, Medea in the play killed her children, whereas Medea Benjamin led her daughter-like protege to the danger which killed her. Moreover, the murder of Ruzicka was committed by "the other side" in Iraq and Benjamin has bragged about giving supplies to "the other side."
So-called social and health programs are devised to provide employment for the "liberal" bureaucracies they create. Since the programs are directed by "liberals", you can be sure they benefit "liberals" and their cronies.
Interesting that Medea Benjamin was kicked out of Cuba. Reminds me of the feminist extremist, but brilliant, anarchist/communist Emma Goldman who was exiled from the U.S. to Soviet Russia from where she was eventually kicked-out for being too radical. Soviet Communism was not very liberal afterall.
Thanks for the response.
Just uploaded the photos for this again.
My web hosting company changed last year, followed by my hard drive failure, with great difficulty recovering data from backup. I’m finally putting photos back on my web site so the photos will be available. I’ll probably do 3 or 4 sets per day when I’m home, but may be traveling for a while so that it may take about 5 weeks to finish all Walter Reed threads.
