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!

… the activists had hoped to block the White House gate until Bush and Blair resolved to end the war in Iraq.
…
The group has issued a nationwide call for people to go on at least a partial hunger strike, if only for a few hours, to show their opposition to the war in Iraq.

Block the White House gate until we agreed to turn tail and allow a massacre of the Iraqis? Do these dimwits really believe the BS they spout?
A “hunger strike” for a few hours. I usually have breakfast between 5:00 and 5:30 AM. I will have a light snack – if I don’t have a beer – around noon. That would equate to a “hunger strike” of close to 7 hours. I generally have supper around 5:00 PM. That is a “hunger strike” of about 5 hours.

Now I have to eat something every hour on the hour so I won’t inadvertently support them? I can’t do it!

This definitely reads like a Press Release. It's so disgusting that the DBM are the PR arm of anyone who is anti-Bush, or anti-USA. After the ruckus in the House Chamber when Maliki was speaking, and Medea was arrested, Code Pink issued a press release that included Medea's cel #. Laura Ingraham must have used it because she had Medea in the studio for a segment of her sub-for-Bill O'Reilly show. Did you see it? Laura was wearing a Code Pink pink suit!! Medea does NOT look good on TV closeups!

And who is the retired Colonel in the article? A friend of Murtha and Kucinich?

Wright, a retired Army colonel, said in a telephone interview after her release that the activists had hoped to block the White House gate until Bush and Blair resolved to end the war in Iraq.

This is such a stupid statement, it does not deserve ink or paper.
