Fellow panelist William McGowan, author of "Coloring the News: How Political Correctness Has Corrupted American Journalism," disagreed. He said antiwar activists are belittled because of their "silly, vacuous slogans."

Example from another thread - "The White House is definitely afraid of women in pink and the power of love," said CodePink co-founder Jodie Evans.

Well, it took 54 posts, but someone finally caught the most vicious slam in the article.

I wonder how it must have felt for JG to be sitting on a pseudo-intellectual discussion panel, to have her say...portraying herself as a victim, of course, and to have had her views dismissed as "vacuous" and "silly" right to her face.

I'd have paid the price of admission to see that.

Oh, yes. I'm sure that Pres. Bush and the White House are terrified of those women in pink. If you didn't see Medea Benjamin on Hannity & Colmes you missed a good show. Hannity called her a LIAR because she was repeating one lie right after the other(just like most liberals). If it wasn't for their lies they wouldn't even have an argument.

BTW, her father is a WEALTHY developer(who "donates" several thousand dollars a year to his daughter's "worthwhile" causes). She is a spoiled brat of the "rich & famous" who has never grown up from the 60's wanna-bes. Who else would have time to fly to Iraq(using OIL) to become a "human shield" for Saddam Hussein.

They haven't figured out yet that this is NOT Jane Fonda's Vietnam. They are going to be prosecuted if they lend aid and comfort to the enemy. Just ask Lindsey Graham and Judge Napolitano on Fox News.
