Five antiwar activists, four of whom have been on a hunger strike for 25 days, were arrested yesterday...

{snip}

The arrests occurred after the five blocked the entrance and ignored police orders to move..... Three of the people arrested are members of CodePink, including its co-founder, Diane Wilson of Seadrift, Tex.

Fake hunger strikes. Fake filibusters. Fake Americans

25 Days on a hunger strike, huh? Someone must have gotten White House and White Tower confused.

Sorry, I thought "Activists Arrested at White House" qualified.

Next time you post it! ;*)

Right. That's White Castle not White Tower. Thx. Sliders, now I remember.

The great news is they lost their permit, I hope it's a permanent loss.

It won't be. I bet if I went there tomorrow, they would be there, as usual. No one every enforces the law when it comes to these commies.

From the sounds of it, they have few people. If there is less than 25 they don't need a permit.

Captain Geech and the Shrimp Shack Shooters?

Well, anyway, not any new STDs.

Oh I forgot.....from the article.

Despite the revocation of their permit, some of the demonstrators vowed to return to Lafayette Square to continue their hunger strike.

I know it's going to be the catalyst for something,...

Yeah, its working, I joined the NRA this year!

[Just A Nobody]

Of course not...they have been on a "rolling" or "pass off" hunger strike. LOL

The group has issued a nationwide call for people to go on at least a partial hunger strike, if only for a few hours,

I will join the strike at about 3 AM until 9ish. How's that?

[Just A Nobody]

The party of FLAKES...er...I mean...FAKES!

[I see my hands]

Well, of course, White Tower wanted to compete with White Castle, as did Royal Castle. Buy 'em By The Bag!

[Just A Nobody]

Is that a new rock band???

"Yeah, its working, I joined the NRA this year!"

LOL!

It looks like the "journalist" who wrote this just copied a Code Pink press release.

Don't ANY REPORTERS do the slightest bit of homework before they write something they pawn off to readers as news?

What a load of crap!
