Code Pink (hearts) Ron Paul
Claymore sends a link from Big Peace which reports what we already know; Code Pink and Veterans For Peace are coming our for Ron Paul. It was almost a year ago that we first reported Code Pink support for Ron Paul.
But, as we’ve said before, Ron Paul’s foreign policy isn’t that far from the anti-war Left, which is why he has attracted people like IVAW’s Adam Kokesh and Rethink Afghanistan’s Jake Diliberto. Of course, Kokesh and Code Pink have been tied to each other for ages, like when Adam hosted their Karaoke fundraiser over three years ago, and their recent adventures in dancing at the Jefferson Memorial. It’s a foreign policy that is naive and will intentionally make the US weaker. That Maoists and racists like Medea Benjamin are attracted to him isn’t that surprising;
It’s CODEPINK founder Medea Benjamin, who’s now on record saying: “I think Ron Paul has a remarkable position when it comes to U.S. foreign policy, and his call for no war on Iran is something that many of us support.”
Benjamin has latched onto Paul’s incessant criticism of the wars we’ve fought in Afghanistan and Iraq, and she claims that the Texas Congressman “has tremendous support among many young people who see that their futures are being frittered away by spending trillions of dollars on unjust wars.”
The article goes on to mention that Veterans For Peace, that POS stepchild of the old Vietnam Veterans Against the War which is chock full of phonies and pretenders like Ward Reilly and Doug Zachary. So I guess that’s more proof that most veterans support Ron Paul. As long as they don’t mind getting in bed with Medea Benjamin.

When two opposing sides are both that far around the bend, eventually they’ll meet up somewhere.
“As long as they don’t mind getting in bed with Medea Benjamin.”
Yeah…thanks for inserting that mental image into my morning…
((shudder))
You don’t need the mental image, CI, that’s why I included my favorite picture of Medea from their protest four years ago.
I bet Newt, Mitt and Rick are absolutely shattered that “Code Pink” has thrown in with the paulistinins.
Paulanistas…Ronulans…Paulistinians…LOL
Problem is, Yat–that you’ll still have that 10 percent of fringe idiots (more if an open primary state) that’ll vote for him.
Look at how he does in “closed” primary states. Telling, no?
I’m interested to see how he does in Virginia today, where only he and Romney are on the ballot.
CI–given the fact that you’re not allowed to write in candidates and that VA is an open primary state, Paul will do better than you might expect.
There’s something inherently wrong in that picture. Admittedly there’s something inherently wrong with the people too, but that’s a different issue.
“As long as they don’t mind getting in bed with Medea Benjamin.”
Don’t lie, Jonn; you would hit that, especially the way she’s dressed in that photo.
NHSparky – I sort of expect him to do rather well actually, given that I live in a fervently Catholic area, and Romney doesn’t exactly excite anyone.
@6 NHSparky, unfortunately you’re right!I think there ought to be some kind of competency test give before you can vote.
I live in VA, and IDK if I want to exercise my right to vote…. I like niether of the two. Heck I dislike politicians in general
Old Trooper #10. Yeah, I’d hit that. With a shovel. In the forehead. Repeatedly. Not only is that face fucked up, so’s what’s behind it.
With all this “tremendous support”, it’s no wonder Paul is always in last place….
@14: Hey! You had that coming for you mentioning that there were topless photos of her out there and I was fresh out of mind bleach!
So I hadn’t discovered this site four years ago, can someone fill me in as to why a chick is laying in a bed in the middle of the street with a crown on? Please don’t tell me that she actually had people carrying her around on some kind of weird royal platform.
Adam_S, that picture came from the protest in DC in March 2008, and yes, they pushed that hag all over DC in the bed. I took the picture right after they had protested at the K Street Army recruiters and they were on their way to the Petroleum Institute up the street. Medea thanked me for taking the picture, until she realized who I was.
#16, it’s not my fault that you went googling for those pictures of Old Pancake Tits.
OT #16: I’ve long believed that Jonn has a stash of Medea pictures for his own private use… now we know!
And that ‘come hither’ look on her face… she knows it too.
Wow Jonn, I don’t know if I should thank or curse you for that link.
@18: I didn’t google them, I was too afraid to actually see it (you know, once you see something, you can’t UNSEE it). You mentioning it was enough for me.
Thank you so much for that image, I just threw up on my lap-top. Some things cannot be unseen, must wash brain with trichlor.
Proves that the political spectrum is a circle, not a line. And as long as I live, I will never understand why the people in Code Pink would ever support anything Ron Paul says, they would scream bloody murder if his economic and limited government policies were ever put in place. Kind of like the wimpy guy that doesn’t understand when he joins the anarchists, that if they win, he is the first to die.
Is that the chick from Goonies behind her??
