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.

“Occupying a foreign land is not American”

So it wasn’t American when we occupied Japan and Germany?

Kook.

Right, she is actually the mainstream of the SD’s.

Shame on the democrats, code pink and those that thought punishing the republicans was a good thing.

Nov. 7th, 2006 was the date we handed the inmates the keys to the asylum.

A good criminologists will tell you that once a person loses the fear for destroying property, attacks on a human being is only a short distance away. Look at all your criminals who do assault and battery, and other serious assualts/murders, they all began with petty vandalism, working their way up to smashing property before they culminate with assualts and serious crimes.

Sounds like a good description of the two guys who raped/murdered/burned the family family in Connecticut a few months back.

I’d still like to know who she was able to get that close.

I must agree... the photos of a protester encircling her arms around Sect. Rice is appalling. Rice was there to report to Congress and should be afforded at least the same level of security given to members of Congress themselves.

You FReepers mind telling me what Ron Paul has to do with this incident? Geez Louis does he annoy you that much, that you have to keyword spam a thread about him?

“Rice was there to report to Congress and should be afforded at least the same level of security given to members of Congress themselves.”

The Capitol Police dropped the ball on this one.

LOL... strategy-of-the-century.

IS there such a thing as “Deputy Chief of Staff of the House Foreign Relations Committee?”

[JennysCool]

Complete agreement on that. No one will EVER convince me that heaving a few RINOs overboard was worth having the entire ship of state steered by the socialist creeps in Congress and their zombie followers.

That 'thing' looks like some sort of nightmarish Womb Raider.

I wonder if she was assisted by some Democratic staffer in getting past security.

What security?

[tanuki]

Thanks for posting that. There’s just no way to describe that other than an attack. We’re in for dark days if this isn’t dealt with. These Code Pinkos ain’t funny anymore.

By the way, that loon’s name is Desiree Anita Ali-Fairooz. She’s married to a man of Arab descent.

"Are you saying people like her are the mainstream of the Dem party? "

I believe that he was- If not, I WILL say it-these MoveOn wacos are terrorists, they are domestic enemies of the United States, and they are the mainstream of the Democrat party. Remember, 30% of US citizens believe that GWB and Dick Cheney brought down the WTC. Where do you think these people came from if not the Dem party?
