Free Republic

Okay, I can think of quite a few individuals and organization more deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize than the DC Chapter of FreeRepublic.com. But Algore? Come on! Has Algore ever stood at the gate to prevent Code Pink from demoralizing our troops as they come and go? No! Has Algore ever visited the wounded troops at Walter Reed? I don't think so! In fact, Algore has done more to circumvent his own cause by bloviating more CO2 into the atmosphere than any other man or machine on the face of the Earth. But that's okay. We don't need...

Okay, it wasn't really a panty raid, but we did get the pinkos' panties in a bunch. Besides I like the headline. What the D.C. Chapter did do was hold a stealth freep of Code Pink at their Washington, D.C. headquarters this afternoon. The part about the bogus police, fire and BOLO calls is true.Six D.C. Chapter members, a member of Gathering of Eagles, Iraq war vet Phil Kiver and two of his friends went to the so-called Code Pink House at 712 5th St., NE (attn. Keith Olbermann, don't get your panties in a bunch: Code Pink publishes this...

'Scotty, beam them down'– to hell Liberal vigilantes are on a rampage these days, looking for people to string up, torment and silence. Like pretty much everything else they do, the liberals are targeting the good guys in the white hats and chumming up to the bad guys in the black hats. As I write this column, protesters with the anti-military liberal group Code Pink are waging campaigns of defamation, vandalism, harassment and intimidation against the United States Marines. Before this there was Rush Limbaugh, the godfather of the talk radio industry, who had to spend 10 days atomizing the...

Recently, Rush Limbaugh referred to Jesse MacBeth and similar frauds as "phony soldiers."  Limbaugh was then smeared by Democrats' claims that he was slandering real troops. The double irony seemed to escape notice in the media. First, Limbaugh was defending real soldiers from the actual slanders from McBeth and other phonies who falsely claim that our troops have committed atrocities.   Second, the Democrats are the party of Sen. Richard Durbin (IL) (U.S. troops at GITMO are like "Nazis, Soviets in their gulags or some mad regime --Pol Pot"), Sen. John Kerry (MA) (U.S. troops in Vietnam systematically acting "in fashion...

Well, Michelle Malkin got the story partially correct. Code Pink has been "squatting across [Nancy Pelosi's] residence, aggravating the neighbors, and hanging their clothes in her trees". I am one of the aggravated neighbors - and this "news" broke right outside my back gate through which I glared at the guitar strumming, wine-sipping, middle aged hippy ladies dressed like pink Mama Cass fairies, waving peace and anti-war signs at the honking cars streaming by. That was until the San Francisco police showed up and transformed my renowned neighbor's curb into a bright red, no parking - no protest oasis.So here's...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was in a determinedly good mood when she sat down to lunch with reporters yesterday. She entered the room beaming and, over the course of an hour, smiled no fewer than 31 times and got off at least 23 laughs. But her spirits soured instantly when somebody asked about the anger of the Democratic "base" over her failure to end the war in Iraq. "Look," she said, the chicken breast on her plate untouched. "I had, for five months, people sitting outside my home, going into my garden in San Francisco, angering neighbors, hanging their clothes...

So there I was, after battling DC traffic trying to get to the convention center for the AUSA show and what do I see... A pitiful little display of code pinkos...four in all..."protesting" the military-industrial complex, the baby-killing soldiers, Blackwater, or whatever their theme-o-the-week is in particular. I don't post very much any more (that durned real life getting in the way of the Internet), but when I saw that pitiful display of human refuse, my first thought was that I should've brought my camera so that I could post the pics up on Free Republic...so that everybody could have...

Remember all those dirty hippies who threatened to move to Canada if Bush was re-elected? Guess what, Canada doesn't want them either.... Peace activists Medea Benjamin and Ann Wright have been arrested in the U.S. while protesting the Iraq war, but they never dreamed that would prevent them from entering Canada. The arrests landed Benjamin's and Wright's names in an FBI-run database, the National Crime Information Center, which Canada also relies on to screen visitors. When the two women visited the country in August, they were told they would have to apply for "criminal rehabilitation" and pay $200 if they...

Byrd gets tired of Code Pink disrupting the hearing and throws them out. Amusing, if nothing else.

For some time Code Pink has been demonstrating against the war outside Walter Reed Hospital, to the great distress of the wounded soldiers and their families. This is simply unconscionable. Who are these people? Brave counter-demonstrators have shown up regularly and voluntarily to show their support for the troops, and the Code-Pink crowd has dwindled. Among the regulars holding up the line for Code Pink is Bruce Wolfe, of local 2 of the Office and Professional Employees Union, who's called the soldiers "scabs". One of the counter-demonstrators reports: This week, one of their newbies came by our troop-support rally at...

As the Left continues its hysteria over the misrepresentation of Rush Limbaugh's remarks, one wonders when they will denounce Code Pink. In Berkeley, the anti-war contingent defaced a Marine recruiting office, calling Marines predators on children and accusing them of murdering them (via Michelle Malkin and Gateway Pundit): Marine Captain Richard Lund recruits college students and graduates as candidates for officer positions in the marines. But carrying out that job in Berkeley is not always an easy task. He has listened to a variety of complaints from members of the anti-war group Code Pink in recent weeks. "We are so...

<p>I called the USMC Officer Recruiting Office at Berkeley and expressed my support to one of the recruiters. H asked how I knew about the situation, and I told him your blog was my source. He said the Pinkos vowed they would be back on the weekends and during the week, every week, until the office is shut down. They went to the landlord of the building and have been harassing him, and he may complain to the city/mayor about it, as other building tenants do not appreciate their antics since it interferes with their businesses. The recruiter hoped that more support would come in and that the word would be spread. He said earlier this week, some Gold Star and Blue Star family members came to the office to show support. One of the family members was a father whose Marine son had died in Fallujah. A man with the Pinkos said to him, “How does it feel to have your son die for oil?” Tensions, of course, were very high and there was almost a fight. I know that I could not hold my temper (and tongue) as these Marines are doing. I despise what these harridans are doing. Question their patriotism? There’s no question about their patriotism.</p>

NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. (AP) - Peace activists Medea Benjamin and Ann Wright have been arrested in the U.S. while protesting the Iraq war, but they never dreamed that would prevent them from entering Canada. The arrests landed Benjamin's and Wright's names in an FBI-run database, the National Crime Information Center, which Canada also relies on to screen visitors. When the two women visited the country in August, they were told they would have to apply for "criminal rehabilitation" and pay $200 if they wanted to visit again. Neither did. On Wednesday, Benjamin, co-founder of the anti-war group Code Pink, and...

The first thing the members of Congress did before they heard the testimony of General David Petraeus, the Administration's new political point man on the war, was to throw the members of Code Pink out of the room. The Code Pinkers are those obnoxious females wearing their eponymously colored T-shirts with end-the-killing slogans on them. The women of Code Pink are liable to pop up at any solemn public gathering demanding peace at the top of their voices. They are unable to understand that elected officials are better informed and wiser than they are and thus they mistakenly dis people...

Commentary: An Open Letter to Code PinkBy Richard Lund While the protest that you staged in front of my office on Wednesday, Sept. 26th, was an exercise of your constitutional rights, the messages that you left behind were insulting, untrue, and ultimately misdirected. Additionally, from the comments quoted in the Berkeley Daily Planet article, it is clear that you have no idea what it is that I do here. Given that I was unaware of your planned protest, I was unable to contest your claims in person, so I will therefore address them here. First, a little bit about...

A spokesman for the Family Research Council says Robert Byrd (D-West Virginia) was the "ringleader" of a Senate hearing that turned into a "circus" and disrespected two top U.S. military officials. Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman General Peter Pace was shouted down by hecklers from the anti-war group Code Pink after reaffirming his belief that homosexuality is "counter to God's law" and should not be condoned by the military. The hecklers had been booing and jeering Pace and Defense Secretary Bob Gates throughout a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing on the Pentagon's $190 billion funding request for the war in Iraq....

Cindy Sheehan, in a statement published online at OpEdNews.com this evening, announced that she had deliberately avoided her scheduled court appearance in Washington, D.C. today for her arrest outside a House committee hearing room on September 10. A bench warrant for her arrest was issued by a Washington, D.C. Superior Court judge around noon today after she failed to appear for an 8:30 a.m. hearing.Sheehan's spokeswoman, Tiffany Burns, had earlier explained Sheehan's absence from court today as a mix up that would be rectified by Sheehan's lawyer.Sheehan, who is running for Congress against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on an anti-American...

Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates told Congress on Wednesday that he envisioned keeping five combat brigades in Iraq as a 'long-term presence.' Mr. Gates told the Senate Appropriations Committee, "When I speak of a long-term presence, I'm thinking of a very modest U.S. presence with no permanent bases, where we can continue to go after Al Qaeda in Iraq and help the Iraqi forces." He added that “in my head” he envisioned a force as a quarter of the current combat brigades. There are now 20 combat brigades in the country, a number that is scheduled to drop to 15...
