Report: Democrats Demanded Release of Protester Who Assaulted Sec. Rice

In a report posted on the website Atlantic Free Press, Code Pink leader Medea Benjamin claims that a high-ranking Democrat staffer demanded the immediate release of the protesters who were arrested at yesterday's House hearing where Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was assaulted by a Code Pink protester.

Benjamin, who was also arrested by Capitol Police outside the hearing room, wrote this morning that, "The Deputy Chief of Staff of the House Foreign Relations Committee contacted the Capitol Police later in the day to again relay that their (sic) is a policy of that committee to not arrest Citizen (sic) protesters but to instead escort them out of the room. The Deputy asked for the CODEPINK members to be released promptly from custody."

Code Pink has many allies in the Democratic majority who facilitate their illegal behavior. The assault by Code Pink on Sec. Rice crossed a line. That the Democrats demanded the immediate release of the Code Pink protesters is an appalling abuse of power and an insult to Sec. Rice.

The Left is inching ever closer to doing political assassinations.

The Deputy Chief of Staff of the House Foreign Relations Committee

It's coming, people. Arm up. This will probably get worse before it gets better. These traitors know how to manipulate our government and are hell-bent on destroying this country. When you have STAFFERS (a.k.a. unelected workers of politicians) with this much power, trouble like this is bound to happen. You know some of these staffers are sympathetic to groups like Code Pink and are the ones who keep breaking long-standing rules and keep letting these people into events like this. If these rules keep getting broken, one of these times, a member of Bush's administration will not be so lucky as to have a woman with just blood on her hands approach.

Is My memory serving me correctly? Did Boxer invite a “pinko” type to one of President Bush’s speeches in the Senate?

I bet this was another one of “those” moments!
