Code Pink is now resorting to witchcraft to beef up the number of its supporters protesting Berkeley's controversial Marine Corps Recruiting Center.

The women's anti-war group has told ralliers to come equipped with spells and pointy hats Friday for "Witches, clowns and sirens day," the last of the group's weeklong homage to Mother's Day.

"Women are coming to cast spells and do rituals and to impart wisdom to figure out how we're going to end war," Zanne Sam Joi of Bay Area Code Pink told FOXNews.com.

The group's week of themed protests, which included days to galvanize grannies and bring-your-daughter-to-protest, appears to have done little to boost its flagging numbers...

"Witches, clowns and sirens day"

Well, witches and sirens day, maybe. With them, every day is "clowns day".

These loony &^&*(^%&^&( in Code Pink?

“Today’s staged press conference with ‘Sasha Shamszad’, ‘Marine Officer Peaceovic’, and Medea Benjamin wasn’t just a fun joke; we were enacting the change we want to see in our community,” said Berkeley protest coordinator Zanne Sam Joi. “We can envision a Shattuck Square without the recruiting station, and now we are recommitting to take action to make it happen, with daily protests outside the station, community education, and the zoning initiative... It’s about time that the Marine Recruiters and the building landlord respect the views of peace-loving Berkeley!”

One Berkeley resident baked cookies to give the recruiters in thanks for leaving her city. “I was disappointed to learn they weren’t leaving, but I gave them the cookies anyway, telling them they were baked with love and that I hope they ‘go in peace.’”

Does this surprise anyone? I’ve thought these women were witches from day one. Big deal.

It is interesting that they would actually come out of the closet to propose this though.

Just dang folks...

[CougarGA7]

I'm sure they will have no shortage of "pointy hats".

Pretend you are protecting your LIFE and not your LIFE STYLE.

Brainstorm the actions you would take and email me!

Peace, Zanne Sam Joi

As for what's brewing outside his recruiting center this week, Wheatcroft responded, "I think witches won't shock me, but it'll be a change of pace, so that's nice."

WHY is Code Pink allowed to protest at the entrance to the Marine recruiting facility, literally blocking the sidewalk and several parking spaces? Those who would protest the murder of infants at abortion clinics are treated very differently.

At least she didn’t turn me into Newt! Well...I got better...

[GSWarrior]

This should broaden their support among mainstream Americans.

[rwlawrence]

Just hope they dont resort to exposing their Breasts again-that could turn one to stone.

[pabianice]

How do the Marine recruiters keep straight faces?

"Is Hillary, Pelosi, or Sheehan expected to appear as Honorary Witches?"

They are not honorary witches. They are the leaders of the coven.

They are not honorary witches. They are the leaders of the coven.
