Code Pink; US troops “terrorists”/new GOE Rally

Redhunter has all of the Freeper links to the dust up that happened outside of the Walter Reed gate this last Friday when Code Pinks aging hippies decided to interupt a Canadian TV crew interviewing the DC Freepers supporting our wounded troops. But to summarize, some old bag said our troops were the terrorists in Iraq. After getting some nasty, bleeped responses from the Freepers and consulting with another old bag, she corrcted herself to mean our troops were “terrorizing” – as if that made the comment better.

Odd what the Left thinks “supporting the troops” means.

Now, I’ve been to the Walter Reed main gate on Friday nights, and when I confronted the Code Pinks hags, I was escorted away from the scene by Metro police last Spring when Code Pink first started their protests. 

Yeah, that was the crowd, and that was the cop protecting them.

Here’s the rest the contingent;

The little old bag in the front begged me to take her picture and when I told her she was too fugly, she sicced the cop on me – demanding that I apologize or she’d file assault charges. I didn’t apologize, but I moved along as the officer demanded.

Doesn’t look like the Freepers enjoy the same protection from Code Pink, though, looking at the video they’ve linked up. I didn’t see any cops on the Freepers’ corner in the video.

It looks like the Code Pinkers have abandoned their post on Friday nights – the Freepers appear to occupy every corner at that intersection of Georgia Avenue. Despite the fact that they had a major protest planned in DC yesterday, according to Ankle Biting Pundits’ Patrick Hynes. Seems that they would have had a bigger crowd for Friday.

Sweetness and Light has a characteristically long post on the worldwide “Impeach!” movement and points out that the Washington post didn’t even have a picture of the protesters.

See the mighty Code Pink website report of the nationwide Impeach Bush protest – they have even linked to YouTube with a stunning video of 164 yellow plastic cups stuck in a fence to spell “Impeach!” some-damn-where in California. Those folks are so fearless. What a bunch of ‘tardbats.

According to ANSWER’s website, another protest is scheduled for May 23rd – a Wednesday. I suppose they figure that if they have protests during the work week, fewer counterprotesters will attend – cuz we have jobs. Code Pinks plans another Mother’s Day protest in Lafayette Park across from the White House. I think I’ll skip that this year – I got escorted by Park Police out of that one, too.

I guess the Leftists are getting all of their protests out of the way before the Memorial Day Rolling Thunder event happens and all of those patriots from the Gathering of Eagles will be back in town.

Speaking of Gathering of Eagles, May 26th from 11:00 -3:00 will be the GOE and Rolling Thunder coordinated “Support Our Troops” rally at the Reflecting Pool east of the Lincoln Memorial for the largest troop support rally ever held in the nation. Clear your schedule.

Completely unrelated but while I have your attention, Mike at Flopping Aces channeled Doctor Suess yesterday, and wrote this hillarious piece about Harry Reid. Kept me giggling all night.
