Code Pink heckles McCain

John McCain dealt deadly blows to Barak Obama’s insinuation that Iran is no threat like Soviet Union was today at the National Restaurant Association convention according to the WSJ’s Washington Wire;

McCain’s harsh words today stemmed from Obama’s defense of his foreign policy on Saturday.

Of his plans to meet with foreign leaders, Obama said, “That’s what Kennedy did with Khrushchev. That’s what Reagan did with Gorbachev. That’s what Nixon did with Mao.” Campaigning in Oregon, Obama added: “I mean think about it. Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, these countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union.”

“Such a statement betrays the depth of Sen. Obama’s inexperience and reckless judgment,” McCain said on Monday. “Those are very serious deficiencies for an American president to possess.”

McCain said that while Iran isn’t a superpower and doesn’t have the military of the former Soviet Union, it remains a grave threat in part because Ahmadinejad’s anti-Israel comments.

Then as he began his prepared remarks, three old hags began their childish antics;

…three women in pink aprons stood up to protest the Iraq war. One woman climbed on her chair and waved a maroon banner while singing a song about McCain and President Bush to the tune of “I’ve Been Working on the Railroad.” The crowd, gathered for a convention of the National Restaurant Association, booed the women as they were escorted out of the ballroom.

I don’t see the Code Pink hags protesting Barak Obama or Hillary Clinton for their admissions that they’ll remain in Iraq for a period of time. Maybe it’s because Code Pink are just the SWAT team of the DNC.
