You'd think that sooner or later the communists of Code Pink would get the message - you're not wanted around here.Apparently, though, thick-headedness is a strong trait among moonbats. Let me be clear: When I say that they're not wanted, I'm not so much talking about myself and my fellow FReepers, I'm talking about by the troops. I've been coming to Walter Reed to participitate in these FReeps for almost two and a half years now, and time and again troops come out of the hospital and go down to tell the Pinkos that they're not wanted and would they...

Actually, last night marked a gross plus one. This report is for the previous Friday and I'm just getting it out now. Tell me how ashamed you are of me for procrastinating...while bumping the thread of course. Definitely getting colder. But if we can just survive the next few weeks I think we'll manage to make it through another winter. Maybe if I go buy some Carhartt clothing that'd do the trick. Check out concretebob and TankerBabe's thread about the awesome donation Carhartt made to the troops in Afghanistan. Nothing much else to say about this weeks FReep except...

In a tense meeting at the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court Tuesday night, pro-life and pro-abortion groups braved freezing winds and sleet to commemorate the 35th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that said abortion is a privacy right protected by the Constitution. Several women from the feminist anti-war group Code Pink were among the group of 50 pro-abortion protesters, the latter of whom comprised members of the National Organization for Women, its Action division, and the Feminist Majority. "With regard to the war and this issue, it's very much the same thing," Liz Hourican, a...

Criticism Support of Venezuelan Dictator is Inconsistent With Proclaimed Values The consistency of Code Pink's antiwar credentials and its values as an antiwar group is criticized because while it publicly opposes President Bush and his policies in response to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, Code Pink's leaders have embraced Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez. Most notably, Code Pink's three highest profile members, Medea Benjamin, Jodi Evans and Cindy Sheehan, visited Hugo Chavez in January 2006. After returning to the United States, Cindy Sheehan stated in an MSNBC interview that she would rather live under Hugo Chavez than President Bush...

After a series of legislative defeats in 2007 that saw the year end with more U.S. troops in Iraq than when it began, a coalition of anti-war groups is backing away from its multimillion-dollar drive to cut funding for the war and force Congress to pass timelines for bringing U.S. troops home. In recognition of hard political reality, the groups instead will lower their sights and push for legislation to prevent President Bush from entering into a long-term agreement with the Iraqi government that could keep significant numbers of troops in Iraq for years to come....

Code Pink counter-protesters will be interested in this little story. It all started when a Code Pink member named Salette Latas decided to run for city councilperson of the wealthy community town of Oro Valley, AZ (North of Tucson) on a platform of fighting commercial real estate developers and allowing library porn. I was reading the online newspaper's weekly Saturday political roundup column and I noticed that the Code Pink member was endorsed by my own Republican County Supervisor! The Supervisor is a patriot who attended the Fight For Victory tour of Move America Forward! My immediate thought was that...

The D.C. Chapter of FreeRepublic.com, an independent grassroots group comprised of veterans, military families and other patriotic Americans, is urging Senator Barack Obama to renounce a $2300 contribution to his residential campaign by terrorist supporter Jodie Evans of Venice, California.The Washington City Paper reports in its current issue that Ms. Evans is co-founder of a group that publicly supports the terrorist-led insurgency in Iraq against Americans and free Iraqis:Drawing perhaps the most fire is Code Pink's support for the Iraqi insurgency that has killed more than 3,700 American soldiers and wounded nearly 30,000 since post-combat operations began there in May...

Who's Tired of Pink? Posted January 11, 2008 | 11:45 AM (EST) I am so tired of pink men bombing brown children and rationalizing it as fighting terrorism. I am so tired of pink men telling women (of all colors) what to do with their wombs--which connect with their brains--in case you forgot. I am so tired of pink men telling us we should stay in Iraq for generations. I am so tired of pink men buying bombs and cheating schools. I am so tired of pink men having wives who stand behind them and nod sagely on television. I...

Peace activists in pink dresses and tiaras demanded the arrest of anti-communist militant Luis Posada Carriles Saturday, but aborted plans for a demonstration in Little Havana after Carriles supporters rushed their vehicle.The six activists, of the Codepink anti-war group, had planned to speak to reporters outside the landmark Versailles restaurant to publicize their campaign against Carriles-- a former CIA operative wanted in Venezuela in connection with the 1976 bombing of a Cuban airliner. However they were met by some 200 irate Cuban-Americans who consider Carriles a champion of freedom. Some ran at the activists' truck as they arrived, tearing off...

MIAMI (AP) - Protesters demanding the arrest of Luis Posada Carriles called off a planned demonstration Little Havana after they were confronted by supporters of the anti-Castro Cuban militant. Women from an anti-war group known as Codepink had planned to discuss with reporters their campaign against Posada -- who is wanted by the Cuban and Venezuelan government on charges that he plotted the deadly 1976 bombing of a Cuban jetliner while in Caracas. About 15 Codepink activists were met in front of a Little Havana restaurant yesterday by some 200 supporters of Posada. Several of the Posada supporters charged at...

SNIPShortly after the new Congress convened, Code Pink rented a row house on Capitol Hill with grand plans to host activists from its 250-plus chapters around the country and abroad. The idea was to give folks from Pasadena to Pittsburgh the opportunity to bring their protest to Washington.SNIPThe five-bedroom row house on 5th Street NE is decorated in shades of pink. There are pink lampshades, throw pillows, and quilts. Most of the furniture and décor were donated by supporters or bought secondhand. Stored in the basement are the pink slips that activists wear to suggest America should fire President Bush...

Check out the shirt proudly displayed in the above pic - 'Code Pink are the real traitors.' Make that 'Traitors, and proud of it', I suppose.

Due to weather we have not been able to deploy our MOAB now for several weeks, I think. Winter tends to bring either wind or some sort of precipiation, and neither make large banners practical. As it was, this evening it sprinkled early on, started in heavier by 7:30, and by 8pm was coming down pretty good. Temps were in the upper 40s though so with a bit of rain gear we were all quite comfortable. After having done this for well over two years most of us have dressing for the weather down to a science. Newcomers are advised...

There could be some discord during the Tournament of Roses Parade as demonstrators promise to raise issues during the holiday spectacle that has been going on for more than a century.
