Video: Code Pink Takes Over the Stage at Heritage (Foundation) Event (They're INSANE!)
HotAir.com ^ | 9/14/2007 | "Allahpundit"

Posted on 09/14/2007 1:25:59 PM PDT by Pyro7480

St. Cindy’s just about out of absolute moral authority so they brought along a father of a soldier killed in action to shield them from the flak they’ll be taking for this latest stunt. The occasion was a Heritage Foundation panel on the war led by Fred Kagan, one of the architects of the surge, and featuring leftist bete noire Michael O’Hanlon. The woman in the first clip in the black dress and glasses is Medea Benjamin, of course; she and the Pinkos have traded their standard gear lately for “civilian” clothing the better to infiltrate events like these. Most of the fireworks come in the second clip although I’ve never heard of the woman involved in that scene.

If they just scream loud enough, if they’re just disruptive enough, if they annoy just enough people, maybe the troops will come home. Or something. Thanks to Patrick Ishmael of News Buckit for the tip.

I saw that last night...not only are they insane but they’re the ugliest bunch I’ve seen in a while. No wonder they’re so pissed off.

Why were they allowed to disrupt?...and continue for so long?

Why didn't someone aggressively remove them from the stage the moment they opened their vile mouths?

Absolutely! Wasn't there a police force that could have been called in? Couldn't some of those "suits" walking around and pitifully pleading with these nutjobs tackle them and get them out of there? At the very least, couldn't they turn off the microphones?

We're screwed!

Personally, I think they should have tasered them and had security personnel drag them off the stage and deposit them unceremoniously outside the front door on the sidewalk.

In my mind, it was bad enough for them to enter this private function. It was quite another to refuse to leave when asked, and I gather they were repeatedly asked politely to leave, though it is hard to tell. I was just looking at the body languge of the person in the suit.

Except, maybe the father of the soldier. He at least left the stage when asked, as far as I could tell.

I believe at some point, Code Pink should be put on the Terrorist Groups list, and handled accordingly for their illegal disruptions of events. (either that, or prosecute them under RICO statutes, along with ANSWER, and the other Socialist terrorists).

Because the disruptors are likely backed up by an army of aggressive anti-American lawyers. Who wants to sued by some Erwin Cheminsky type alleging battery and “rights violations”.

Works for me!

"they’re the ugliest bunch I’ve seen in a while"

It's pretty apparent, based on my many, many years of observation, that outside of the Hollywood Liberal-guilt-ridden celebrities (a few of them), the Democrat base consists of the bottom of the gene pool, criminals, illegals, and assorted insundry clock-stoppers and two-baggers, IMHO.

Her name isn’t Medea. Medea is a name from Greek Mythology that she gave herself while at Tufts. People who give themselves titles are often Mental.
