SCHLUSSEL: Drudge Should Give Freepers Credit on Protesters of Wounded at Walter Reed
DebbieSchlussel.com ^ | August 25, 2005 | Debbie Schlussel

Posted on 08/25/2005 6:29:02 AM PDT by Cool Chick

Something I wrote about here a LONG time ago is now a "scoop" on Drudge: the taunting of wounded war vets (fresh from Iraq and Afghanistan) by anti-war protesters at Walter Reed hospital.

Drudge writes as if Conservative News Service (CNS) was the first to discover this. Not true. Free Republic counter-protesters wrote about this long ago and posted photos. They've been there for over 2 years.

Here's what I wrote, back in April: "Back on U.S. soil, Code Pink harasses badly wounded American soldiers, protesting them outside the Walter Reed medical facility in Washington, DC."

What Drudge doesn't say--but, again, I wrote here--is that the group doing the protesting is Code Pink, the hate-America (and fund the Islamic terrorists in Gaza and Fallujah) organization of Cindy Sheehan (a/k/a Jihad Cindy #2) and Marla Ruzicka.

When you think of these two, think of the Code Pinkos tormenting our veterans who've lost limbs and are already in a lot of pain.

Drudge was wrong not to credit Freepers on this. So was CNS. And where were both of them for the last two years? It's like they just discovered America.

They've been there for over 2 years.

That's inaccurate. This has been going on for four or so months.

I feel like I'm living in the twilight zone. I thought everybody knew this. I just heard Laura say something about it.

Wow - I had no idea these a--holes were taunting our wounded veterans.

Why isn't this being shown on THE TODAY SHOW with Matt and Katie? Hello, MSM, where are you?

The Today Show, or any of the MSM, doesn't want anyone to know just how despicable these people are.

Doesn't matter who gets credit as long as it gets reported and NO ONE is more noticed than Drudge.

I just spoke with the city desk at the Washington Post. It was just discussed on the Laura Ingraham show. The POST, of course, knows nothing about it.

FAX THE INFO TO THE WASHINGTON POST CITY DESK --

I'd love to see Brian Kilmead go on-site and file a report on "code pink."

I imagine he'd have something interesting to say, as would E.D. However, Brian might pound on someone! That's something I'd love to see!
