Apparently, Code Pink is suffering some popular backlash because of their antics recently. One of them wrote an especially loooonnnngggg post in their blog this morning (at 4:35 AM….jeez maybe their problem is a lack of beauty rest) entitled “To The Haters…<\/a>” in which they disparage us for pointing out they’re ugly, shrieking harpies;<\/p>\n

You like to say that we’re \u201cugly\u201d and we’re \u201cscum.\u201d You like to disparage our intelligence and patriotism. Sometimes you make threats: \u201cIf I see you agian I’ll stop you,\u201d and \u201cIf I see you bitches I will do something horrible to you.\u201d More than one of you suggested we should be \u201changed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nice.<\/p>\n

(Just who are supposed to be the \u201cugly\u201d ones here?)<\/p>\n

Take a good sober look over some of your recent posts… Most of them are about wounding, involving crude sexual references, misogyny, bigotry, and hate… there’s hardly an American sentiment in the bunch.<\/p>\n

Do you really want to sound like some hick counterpart to the Taliban, with your hatred of women, intolerance of views with which you disagree, and your threats of violence?<\/p>\n

Do ANY of you consider yourselves Christians, I wonder? How so… by what definition? (Ku Klux Kristians? That variety?)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sweet. Tell people to stop calling them names while calling their detractors names. Here’s a few reasons I call them ugly;

\n\"DSC_0081\"<\/a>

\n\"DSC_0081\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I have more pictures, but I think you get the idea. I call them ugly because…well…they’re ugly.<\/p>\n

They go on and explain why they’re “flamboyant”;<\/p>\n

Because we’re flamboyant and because we refuse to be silenced, we sometimes get results.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And those results are? Fundraising? Inflated egos? The war is still going on…you’ve accomplished nothing except proven yourselves buffoons and tools of your communist masters.<\/p>\n

Oh, and their analysis of the “surge” shows how keenly they grasp the whole concept;<\/p>\n

You poor schmucks actually believe that the troop Surge is behind the drop in violence in 2008 Iraq!<\/p>\n

But here’s the straight dope, regarding the Surge: There’s no question that the ethno-sectarian cleansing and walling up of Baghdad helped somewhat (the very bloody first phase of the Surge), but the real key to the drop in violence, per most American military officers on the ground, was putting 100,000 members of al Qaeda in Mesopotamia (AQM) on the U.S. payroll — giving them each $300\/month, arms, and U.S. training to chill out for a while…<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Notice she didn’t say that we pay the Iraqi Army or the Iraqi police, she says we pay the INSURGENTS, that we pay AL QAEDA. But they add the proviso;<\/p>\n

It’s no reflection on our brave troops, but rather a poor reflection on our dismal politicians….<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yuh-huh. Those brave troops they refer to are the folks who are coming back and telling us how the surge has worked. Those brave troops are the folks who bear the brunt of your ill-reasoned criticism. I guess we should get some pleasure that they’ve admitted that there is indeed a drop in violence in Iraq…small pleasure.<\/p>\n

Well, if Code Pink is really nonpartisan, and they only want to stop the war with their “flamboyance” (a term I usually reserve for the gender-confused), why didn’t they interupt Barack Obama’s speech to the DNC? He’s admitted that he’ll continue the current administration’s policy in the war against terror. Why didn’t they interupt Joe Biden’s speech? He voted for the use of force in Iraq and had been advocating for dethroning Hussein for more than half-a-decade before the latest war in Iraq.<\/p>\n

Since we know that Jodie Evans, co-founder of Code Pink. is a top bundler of contributions for Obama (on the same level as Hollywood moguls), we all know how non-partisan Code Pink really is, don’t we?<\/p>\n

The same goes for Code Pink’s beard, Adam Kokesh<\/a> – our future Democrat Presidential candidate in the mold of John Kerry. I know the excuse of IVAW for not interrupting Obama’s speech will be that he accepted their list of demands…in reality, SOME GUY who said he was from the Obama campaign took thier letter, while no one in the McCain campaign was willing to pretend to take their list of demands. Yeah, big difference you wantwit dorks.<\/p>\n

Thanks for playing our game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
