Report: Code Pink thieves stole GOP delegate badge
I asked last night how the hell the moonbats penetrated the RNC convention floor.
He just interviewed the Indiana alternate GOP delegate whose identity was stolen, allowing the disrupters to get onto the floor for McCain’s speech.
By any means necessary.

That explains how the nuts got in….oh they are soooooo ethical, huh?
Jail time baby.
Throw the book at those nuts.
Not surprised. Thievery, lies, disruption, inciting riots, disturbing the peace, shouting down opposition, blatant propaganda from media. Not surprised.
Of course, this will get no mention in the MSM. Now, had it been the other way around and some conservative group did the same thing at the DNC convention, they would all over the evening news and roundly denounced.
Does anyone know if charges will be pressed?
Losers. And I mean that in every sense of the word.
Of Course they stole somebody’s identity. Would you want to walk around with their real one? I wouldn’t.
Keep in Mind that a certain GOP Congressman who had delegates to this convention was holding his own “Counter” convention just blocks away.
And of course, nothing will happen to them as a result.
I am SHOCKED, SHOCKED I tell you that the left would be dishonest in this way!!!
I wonder if the law enforcement folks in St. Paul/Minneapolis will treat this as an identity theft ? In my mind, that’s what it would be – similar to the theft of a driver’s license or employee ID to be used to masquerade as the rightful owner –
i.e. theft of an employee swipe card to gain access to a secure area on private property –
Would be sad to see police/sheriff’s dept. not treat this situation as such -
Video night McCain spoke
That video above is when Palin spoke. This video is last night. Again can see badges around their necks
They showed the badges that Code pink had. Can anyone get a good screenshot ?
Wonder if they can catch who’s name is on them ?
Rush said that MSNBC gave passes to Code Pink.
Ah I see some others had more info on the subject than I did DOH !
I LOVED that our GOP shouted down those mental defectives with “USA! USA!” every time they tried (in vain…) to steal the spotlight from McCain.
Can we try Minnesota style waterboarding? Tie ‘em to a log in the Mississippi and let them loose when they reach Baton Rouge.
McCain Heckler
This is one of the guys who heckled McCain last night. He says he got his pass from a Ron Paul delegate.
That came from Newsbusters and Booker Rising, which I linked above. It looks like there were multiple sources for the badges.
Yep! And McCain had a great comeback line too.
I was videotaped in Minnesota outside the XCEL Center taking on the Code Pinkos. I am trying to obtain the tape.
When they complained about a police state and overaggressive police tactics, I set them straight.
I told them:
“I can prove you are wrong in 60 seconds. You claim the police use excessive force. I know this is wrong because I begged them to do it and they wouldn’t. I asked those cops (pointing towards them) to use tear gas, rubber bullets, and batons. I wanted Kent State 2008. They said no because we live in a democracy. So sorry to disappoint you, but as badly as you want it, you will not be savagely beaten. Now be quiet before I come back tomorrow witha razor and shave you all under your armpits.”

So they feel they can misrepresent themselves? And I’m supposed to respect them?
I do believe the FBI ought to be looking into these thefts because while they are American terrorists they could have been true terrorists…..and identity theft to go with along with the charges.
And, will criminal charges be forthcoming for Medea?
What sick twisted moron would name themselves Medea?
Keep in mind that there were two incidents. The first was the Sarah Palin speech on Wensday where Code pink used that delgates passes.
Then was incident last night. Its very possible that those were MSNBC badges.
Rubber bullets, have they simply gone out of fashion, or is there a shortage? It sounds harsh, but I want rubber bullets, Medea Benjamin engaging in one of her crack-fueled “direct actions,” and a video camera. It’s all I ask for.
Pathetic losers. They’re ostensibly well intentioned, but so hopelessly clueless. Or maybe they are attention whores. (Is that a bad thing to say?)
No, because if you watch the video, you’ll see that the police couldn’t do anything because they had credentials. And if you have credentials and get that close to the stage, you’re not committing a crime — technically.
Apparently, having credentials that someone else gave isn’t a crime in itself.
Now if they bashed someone over the head and tied them up, that’s a different story.
My question is WHO gave them those credentials, and if it’s pointing to MSNBC, do you really think any heads will roll over there? No, they’ll be backslappin’ and high five’n each other.
No turnabout possible on this one. Even if we stole Code Pink’s identities, all we’d likely get is collection calls and garnishments
Yes, tygrrr’s right, they do need a shave (and a job).
So we know how Code Pink got in, now somebody tell me how Adam Kokesh from IVAW got in. he was the clown standing up in the black t shirt with the banner How do you win an occupation?.
Their claim is that someone gave the passes to them outside as that were not going back in (it seems they are 1 day passes). If that is true, then that person should be in a great deal of trouble. If not, then the passes are either stolen or forged, either of which should lead to prosecution. Isn’t impersonating a government official a federal felony offense?
Watch the media rip into the RNC for suppressing ‘free speech’ if that happens, never mind that the charges would be theft or forgery, never mind that these idiots were denying Palin’s right to free speech by their actions.
And after this, how the HELL did the protesters get into McCain’s presentation the next day??? Are the security people working for the dems?
Got to Gateway pundits blog he says the delegate who’s badges they were is claiming that they were stolen from her.
Security may be tight, but unfortunately not 100%. But it is more scary that it was breached twice. This is inexcusable! I assume that officials have discovered how they obtained these passes to prevent such lapses again. Too many crazies and terrorists out there.
O great! The badge was stolen from a Hoosier. Please don’t think all of us in Indiana are so careless. Why couldn’t the badge have come from someone in CA or MA?
I was hoping someone would body tackle one of them. I would’ve posted the bail.
What do these women think we are going to do?
The US has been under attack by Muslum radicals for the last 200 years. Why don’t they protest those people?
Oh yeah, I know why. They would be beheaded.
I posted a link to an interview with him about a dozen or so posts up. He says he got it from a Ron Paul delegate.
Heh I love how in my video the Code Pinkers say they wouldnt have rush the stage with Sarah up there.
She would have show the proper way to feild dress a code pinker heh
Hey! Watch what you say about the Soviet Socialist Repulik or Kalifornia. That’s where I
live‘m imprisoned!Maybe they photographed the passes and printed their own. That should be particularly easy with friendly press people who might pose with a random admirer. This technique is 40 years old.
HEH! More like a body check into the boards!
They have outlived their usefulness…
I heard her being interviewed a few months ago on the Mike Medved radio show. He asked her that same question. Her answer was that she had changed her name many times over the years, and she thought that “Medea was a great womyn and had been badly mistreated and very misunderstood”.
Ya I know batsh*t nuts.
Over.
My bet is code pink isn’t standing for anything at this point, they’re making money off things the way they are.
Off Topic, but have our idiotic and pathetic trolls gone into seclusion now that there is a wave of enthusiasm for the GOP ticket?
Why are they always picking on Mass? I know for a fact there are at least three convervatives (and an ex-pat) from Massachusetts on this blog. ::grin::
They couldn’t steal them from a MA Republican Congressman because there isn’t one. I think our delegation was made up of Mitt Romney, Jane Swift and a half dozen Pilgrims.
no, they are on the lead story thread whining and sucking their thumbs.
It’s Killin em and
I Love it!!!
McCain/Palin 08′
I think they all suffered brain hemorrhages.
Keep in mind Medea ws arrested in Pakistan not too long ago for protesting Mushariff.
She had to have the Bush Administration rescue her silly arse.
She was very lucky some jihadi didnt behead her for being un Islamic looking.
Who is funding these people? I mean really my bills have to get paid every month and I have to WORK. Anyone willing to pay my bills while I go protest democRATs and code pinkos I’m up for it? Cash up front preferred but will take credit cards and checks.
The one thing that I think stinks about this story is this:
Who on earth would give up their passes to get back in right before the Palin speech. It was the climax of the entire convention.
Doesn’t make sense to me.
KoF
Ok, I found the video of me b*tchslapping the leftist wack jobs.
It is in the trackback section to this thread and on my site.
Enjoy all!

If MSNBC gave them passes, does this mean the media is biased? Shocked, shocked…
Actually I suggested last night that the media may have provided passes for them. They haved sunk that low.
Wow. I’ve lost all respect for Code Pink.
Don’t throw them in jail–keep them out, close enough to be seen and faintly heard, and at a safe enough distance for Sarah-cuda to aim and shoot without distracting or alerting them.
Do these women not have anything useful to do? And where do hey GET all those ugly women??
I do question the “fitness” of the security for the RNC. Thankfully. nothing really bad happened. It could have went like this:
The idea that these tools would be charged with any sort of crime and see any jail time is laughable.
They never get in trouble. It’s why they keep doing it. The media and the liberal run judicial system is on their side.
I guess that a lot of people saw the Punkers, uh Pinkers last night. McCain drew 1/2 million more viewers than The One.
I asked the same thing on a different thread yesterday…

Should’ve left here there to experience what real torture is like. She would’ve come back a Republican.
I know this is off-topic, but McCain beat the “One” in TV ratings! Without the MSM build-up and without the outdoor stadium and a ‘temple of gloom’ setting! Maybe there is hope for America.
Palin was very close behind them. Does anyone know if McCain’s speech got shown on BET and the other nutworks that did not air Palin’s speech?
GK, “Kronos” was already taken, as was Abbadon and Pazuzu
My apologies, Michelle. I overlooked your link.
I wonder what Sarah caries as a side arm.
Oprah has refused to have Palin on before the election. She is willing to risk her show and her magazine – but she is certainly not risking her money. I hope that the Republican women, if there are any, who watch Oprah will turn her off. Nothing better than a ratings drop as a reminder of who actually makes the show and allows her to pay her bills.
I didn’t realize that was Medea. I thought it was one of those “Breasts, not Bombs” kooks. It looked like she was trying to pull her own top off. I literally shuddered.
One small flaw in your story. Achmed would have killed her instantly for comparing him to a pork product.
Why were they released? They should be charged and jailed.
One of the videos Michelle linked to, the one that showed the interview with Madea Benjamin, shows a red badge, the thumb in the photo is deliberately covering up the word “media”. The badge in the interview had a #4 on it and said “Media Floor pass” this means it was for Thursday so couldn’t have been used by Benjamin on wednesday but she could have used a day 3 pass that looked the same, with a 3 on it. I find it very amusing that they are deliberately covering up the word “media” part of the pass in the video.
Those floor passes are given out by the press galleries at the convention and they are intended to be “temporary” floor passes but its not policed very well. Could have been any independent media that gave it to her too. Although yes, each badge is numbered and can be traced back to whomever it was issued to and I’m sure that was done. But it doesn’t mean they will ever release where it came from.
It is now reported that Medea Benjamin was wearing the identity badge of Strom Thurmond. An unidentified security guard is quoted as saying, “I looked at the badge then looked at the face, looked at the face and then at the badge. I swear, it looked like the same guy to me”. When asked what he thought when the face recognition softwear spat out “DEAD”, the guard answered, “yeah, but I thought that it meant LOOKS DEAD, not really dead, dead”.
Liberals, Progressives and Obamanites. The collective term would be ObamaNation or Abomination depending on syllabication. (spell checker let it through!) Security guards and Federal Officers should not have to deal with these goons. Let the delegates do it!
We could call it Operation Hasta La ByeBye Pinky

In honor of our Next Vice President Palin I am upgrading my side arm to a Ruger Alaskan in .44 Magnum.
Don’t throw them in jail. Can you imagine how it would feel to a “nice” murderer, or other felon to be stuck in a concrete enclosure with the likes/looks of Medea Benjamin? Talk about torture….
I hope the RNC does indeed check the bar codes on the credentials used by the Code Pink members. Then I hope someone interviews the people whose badges were used to get to the truth in this matter. In secure office buildings a certain percentage of security badges are lost or mis-placed each day. It would be interesting to know if that were the case here. If, on the other hand as has been alleged, MSNBC provided credentials to the protestors (possibly to get a story?) they should be held responsible and accountable. Perhaps the network should be banned from attending future conventions should this be found to be true. I imagine that having to cover a national political convention from the outside whilst others have full access will cause heads to roll. It’s simple market based economics.
This was a serious security breach. Someone without photo identification that matched their credentials entered dressed as a buffon and no one at the Uniformed Division of the U.S. Secret Service and TSA who were security at the doors, nor the St. Paul police or U.S. Secret Service, as well as Republican Party security officials who were patroling inside the convention hall noticed these two pink buffons nor did anything about it until one of them was running down the corridor towards Palin while she was making here speech. Worst of all, no delegate noticed anything and reported it to security. Why wasn’t she tackled by a delegate when she started her outrage?
Gret catch. Those passes show wouldnt have been used Wensday night as they are clearly labeled “Thursday”.
Which means these are the passes Code Pink used to get into the convention to harrass McCain.
And I think your right also it does seem to say “Media”
But fair warning. Code Pink has been known to forge fake badges before.
I think they should be charged.
The way these hippies stink I would have figured they would have been nabbed 20 feet before they got to the door.
Michael Medved had one of the disrupting Pinkos on his show. She said that they got their badges from “disgruntled Republican Delegates.”
Why whould she lie?
The story I heard is they got them from MSNBC. They are lying to cover the tracks of an activist media.
Me! *waves hand
You just made me smile; I’m a Mayflower descendant several times over (on paternal & maternal sides) – and boy, do I ever feel like a stranger in a strange land.
Oh, how I wish she had gotten on stage. Sarah would have body slammed her and the crowd would have been in heaven!!
I’m no oil painting myself, so I try to refrain from comments about beauty, or lack thereof, but reading MM’s post (yesterday?) about the dumba$$ Herald reporter and *hairstylist* from Boston (oh, the ignominy!), my reaction was to wonder just how the hairstyles of the Code Pinkos reflect their take on current events.
Good point, Wayfaring. Would this same reporter have commented on the less-than-attractive hairstyles of the Code Pink ladies?
Btw, Michael Medved interviewed one of these Code Pink-ers today on his show and she told him some convention-goer GAVE their passes to the Code Pink girls. I figured that had to be BS and I’m sure Michael wasn’t buying it, either.
Want a road map? One of Obama’s favorite lines is how many disaffected Republicans are ready to follow the Messiah. To claim that “disgruntled Republican Delegates” gave them the credentials fits that trope – and might save them from charges of theft.
“Disgruntled Republicans”? I don’t know about you but I think the whole of the GOP is fully gruntled at this point.
I guess it’s the cop in me coming out but I swear if I was there and even within jumping distance of either of those two I would have got my 15 minutes of fame by putting a clothes line on ‘em and dragging them out of there using the most painful wrist lock / arm bar control hold I know, all on world wide TV.
Then I would hit all the talk shows ( sure would dig getting close to Kelly Ripa) And then on to “The View” my friends, oh yes.
All kidding aside what I don’t get is why they are so gently helped to the door, hell one of them broke away the first time and tried to get back to the stage- Why are the Secret Service not putting them in a hurt locker? They tend to be much more cooperative when you add a little pain compliance to the equation.

eric for Attorney General!
You know, these are the moments when one should own a cattle prod.
You know, they are either the luckiest clowns on the planet, or authorities are afraid to prosecute them. It mystifies me how they have escaped incarceration time and again. Even the Pakistanis declined to “dispose” of them, instead choosing to deport.
Thank God they didn’t have a weapon. What’s NOT to hate about these whackos??
Wayfarer writes, “I’m no oil painting myself…”
Me? I see myself as a soft watercolor painting, airbrushed here and there for effect.
“I’m a Mayflower descendant several times over”
I hope so. That’s reminds me, Doesn’t Mrs. McCain look fantastic for her age, both of ‘em? John’s wife is quite sexy. Don’t say anything to him, ok?
Michael Medved had one of the disrupting Pinkos on his show. She said that they got their badges from “disgruntled Republican Delegates.”
Medved then went on to ask if those were Ron Paul delegates. She said she didn’t know, hadn’t asked. He proceeded to assume they were, and then to state it as fact. I did not respect this, as he frankly had no evidence.
It did create a ‘teachable moment’ for my kids, because of course this Medea character said she’d had a First Amendment right to free speech. Medved tasked her on that, saying that free speech does not apply to private individuals on private property. I gave my kids examples – nobody is permitted to walk into a shopping mall and begin to harangue passersby; none of our local megastores (like Target) will permit canvassing or signature-collection on their property. Protestors are frequently required to stay back X number of feet from a group or activity, and/or have a permit, although protests are certainly legal….and so on. No, Medea…you do not have a right to free speech. And you didn’t have an invitation. Gate-crashers always get bounced.
