She had Pete Hegseth (of Vets for Freedom) facing off with Code Pink&#8217;s Medea Benjamin. The video is on YouTube already<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">[youtube epgRg55pCDA]<\/p>\n<p>Medea Benjamin claims that she and her Code Pink minions represent the majority of Americans. I&#8217;d like to dispute that with some of my previously unpublished pictures &#8211; some going back two years. (<strong>Note to the guy that accuses me of photoshopping my Code Pink photos;<\/strong> I don&#8217;t know how to photoshop, so please don&#8217;t start that discussion again);<\/p>\n<p>These pictures are from last month&#8217;s protest;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3137\/2345992302_50defca36d.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2089\/2345989122_a2dc7f31c8.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2291\/2345125615_23cf2a2e87.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2090\/2345120961_4920ac158d.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This picture is from January&#8217;s protest at the Israeli Embassy;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2369\/2219739856_2677391b6a.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This picture was taken at the Myanmar Embassy last September when Code Pink brought their anti-George Bush message to a rally against the treatment of the Burmese people. The guy in the picture above, with the Barbie bed, when he rode up on his crappy little bicycle to this protest, he shouted at the top of his lungs &#8220;Bush lies! Impeach Bush!&#8221; however that&#8217;s related to the Myanmar&#8217;s government treatment of the Burmese people.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1146\/1455649822_8a0d899c73.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>These two pictures are from the Mothers&#8217; Day protest in front of the White House in 2006 (ignore the date stamp)<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i8.photobucket.com\/albums\/a1\/jlilyea\/PICT0012.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i8.photobucket.com\/albums\/a1\/jlilyea\/PICT0011.jpg\" height=\"333\" width=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not America, Medea. It&#8217;s a bunch of drama queens who dress in the gaudiest clothes they can find to hang on their misshapen forms &#8211; Code Pink members are barely distinguishable from gay pride parade participants. No matter how many times you declare that you represent America, it&#8217;s easy to see from these photos, without even hearing your empty words, you don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>I also noticed that Benjamin made reference to the amount of money to which VfF seems to have access. Code Pink bought a house on Capitol Hill (one of the priciest neighborhoods in DC) as well as a house in Crawford, TX. They have resident protesters who show up at EVERY protest in DC (as illustrated by the pictures above). I didn&#8217;t hear her address her source of cash. It seems to me that a house is a bit more expensive than a few rides on a bus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Waking up early this morning, I caught the end of the Bill O&#8217;Reilly show with Laura &hellip; <a title=\"The majority of Americans\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=1494\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">The majority of Americans<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,5,31],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1494","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-antiwar-crowd","category-politics","category-protestsrallies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1494","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1494"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1494\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1494"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1494"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1494"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
