Got my Code Pink email today, and it’s kinda lame. They want me to call my Congressmen about some some chick who smeared fake oil on herself at a Congressional hearing and got arrested for it. I think being a dumbass is only a misdemeanor. Anyway, it made me wonder: Where’s Midge?<\/p>\n

You remember Midge Potts, she’s the ginormous transgendered Navy veteran that traipses around with Code Pink. Anyway, you will be happy to note that s\/he is alive and well, and running for Senator in the Show Me State<\/a>. (Please, for the love of all that is holy, do not show us anything.) She did however recently suffer a debilitating injury <\/a>while walking:<\/p>\n

Midge Potts, Progressive\/Green Candidate for US Senate, who began walking from Missouri’s only nuclear power reactor in Callaway County on April 10th, announced on Monday that she had to end her trek early because of a pulled tendon she suffered during her attempt to reach the Honeywell nuke bomb parts factory in Kansas City….<\/p>\n

Midge Potts said, “I walked 65 miles in 6 days, and I talked to lots of folks in central Missouri about converting the $50 billion America spends annually on maintaining a nuclear weapons arsenal to retool factories for the production of green technologies. From my point of view, this walk was a success; not trying would have been the failure.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Wow, she was really trucking along there! For those who might snark, walk a mile in his\/her high-heeled pumps with a feather boa on before you jest on my site!<\/p>\n

Anyway, I just found this video, and I am……transfixed? Like, I just can not turn it off.<\/p>\n
