TAMPA -- Giant, walking vaginas have descended upon the Republican National convention.
Several demonstrators from Code Pink, a feminist group, wore frilly pink costumes while others adorned with cardboard cutouts resembling the sexual organ were milling about on Sunday looking for Republicans.

A Florida website called Shark-Tank.net captured video of some of them during their preparation (video below). The protesters carried signs saying such things as: “Read my lips. Leave my vagina alone,” and argued that pro-life Republicans are waging a war against women.
But with the official proceedings, along with two Lynyrd Skynyrd concerts and the premier of an anti-Occupy Wall Street Movie canceled on Sunday and Monday due to weather, it wasn’t until Sunday night at The Welcome Event that the protesters found a large group of Republicans to confront.
As several thousand conventioneers arrived in buses at Tropicana Field, an indoor stadium where baseball’s Tampa Bay Rays play, they were met by about 400 protesters – some of whom were in their vagina costumes. By that time, though, convention-goers hardly took notice of the crowd, and well-armed police and military personnel kept the demonstrators away from the party inside the stadium.
Inside, delegates chanted the Pledge of Allegiance and sang along to "God Bless America." Many wore red, white and blue, and some dressed in unusual costumes of their own: cavalry uniforms, kilts and, Tampa Bay being the home of the NFL’s Buccaneers, more than a few pirate outfits.
There were even a few Democrats roaming the floor, some obtaining credentials through the St. Petersburg/Clearwater Film Commission.
The show included short sets from Shannon Magrane (11th season of American Idol) and Karla Davis (second season of The Voice).
Headlining was Rodney Atkins singing songs about “freedom, family and the good Lord – and the right to bear arms.”
Keeping his set family-friendly throughout, Atkins even cleaned up some fairly harmless lyrics (“bustin’ our asses ”became “bustin’ our backs”) and earned some of the loudest applause when toasted “the men and the women at home and abroad defending this country” before launching into his song "If You’re Going Through Hell (Before The Devil Even Knows)."
In keeping with the theme, tomorrow, members of the news media will assemble outside the convention center dressed as giant assholes.

HEY OBAMA..THESE ARE YOUR SUPPORTERS...ARE YOU PROUD OF THEM, DO YOU MIND IF YOUR GIRLS JOIN THEIR GROUP DOWN THE ROAD,?
“Keep your laws off my body, uh, well, uh, except in the case of Obamacare, then we want laws all over our bodies!”
Idiots are to stupid to figure out that the policies they desire are actually the opposit of what they espouse in their protests.
Morons.
This is disgusting. I’m closing this post - don’t want to read the comments.
“Don’t look at us as sex objects as you force you to look at us as sex objects.”
“Leave it to Beaver”
Dave Barry once speculated about what it would do to a real boy to have to grow up being known since childhood as “the Beaver”.
Anyway, this is el sicko disgusting cr@p that no mind with even just three normal functioning brain cells could ever think of.
Will the hateful Code Pinkos put on the same sordid act for the Democrat klavern? If they do, a lot of Dems will want to be photographed with the Pink Whatevers.
I thought the whole point of women’s lib was to have people judged by their individual merits and not by their sexual organs.
I see how wrong I was.
(I really think that the best thing for most of the code pink broads would be to get l**d. and yes, I am a woman, but I have NOTHING in common with code pink.)
It’s really just adult infantile behavior.
Like a child that craves attention, it will do anything to get that attention, be it good or bad behavior......
Noone would ever look at these subhuman pinheads as “sex objects”. What demented lost souls...truly nobama voters.
Hmm... Lewd? Loud? Lard? I givvup. ;-)
Life is just like a never-ending episode of South Park anymore
JFK would be so proud of his party now...
Teddy was, so why wouldn’t he?...........
MY choice is ‘lead’....rhymes with ‘bed’............
I confess to being a little farsighted, but those don’t look like vaginas, and the dregs draped in them don’t look like women.
If they misbehave, is it a “Pussy Riot?”
