Code Pink Enlightens BP House Hearing

By Doug Powers  •  June 17, 2010 01:35 PM

**Written by guest-blogger Doug Powers

Hot Air Pundit identified her as a member of Code Pink, but all I know is that she looks just about the right size to plug the hole with:

If you’re wondering how Code Pink manages to gain entrance to House hearings, Henry Waxman allows it in an often futile attempt to see to it that he’s not the ugliest person in the room.

Hard to tell, but the Pinksquatch from the video above looks a little like a wildly over-fed version of the Code Pink arfer who, if facial expressions are any indicator, almost succeeded in getting Condoleezza Rice to punch her in 2007:

    Maybe a few pounds heavier, but looks like the same nut case to me.

    Of course under the Bush Administration, she was practicing Patriotic Dissent, now she’s disrupting the proceedings.

    She doesn’t attract attention from the Sergeant at Arms having black stuff all over her face and hands? We need to stop coddling these wierdos. Don’t we have asylums anymore?

    Looks like the woman in the pink shirt who is sitting at the end of the video is “round 2″ in the “protest”….

    Too bad the Asian woman didn’t do a “karate kid” on the whale’s a$$!!

    My brother was Dr Rice’s chief bodyguard for 2 years. The stuff these losers come up with is hilarious.
    Whenever we get together the stories he tells me about his time with Dr Rice or his very brief exposure to Rodham are hilarious. Ms. Rice is a nice person. Rodham is an angry witch,
    The protestors are generally emotionally disturbed.

    Biased media – when a Tea Partier says Obama’s inept to a news reporter, it’s all over the press screaming racism. When a Code Pink Idiot displays her intelligence in a formal hearing, not a mention anywhere. I.AM.SICK.OF.IT. Hurry, November.

    It does look like her. Someone said “Save the whales” and she thought – “There won’t be any leftovers…”

    BTW, the ever doting MSM tried to turn the story of Obama turning away skimmer help offered by the Dutch into the BP guy insulted the little people story. Then went home to look at their Obama posters on their ceiling.

    I dunno. I thought the look of utter contempt and thorough disgust on Rice’s face was totally priceless and the best response. Like she’d watched somebody lick a turd.

    mchristian, your right, I went back and looked closer, that is Mad Medea, so what kind of security is that, they don’t know who the biggest protesters in the halls of congress are? Why aren’t these people checked closer at these hearings, they know what’s going to happen.

    Security is either incompetent or are being restrained by…

    You have got to be kidding! I have not heard anything like that on any news. Frankly, it would not surprise me after what happened with our two border agents here in TX getting sent to prison. Please, if you get any information, let us know.

    Where’s the entrance security? You can’t bring guns or knives in, but apparently liquids are fine?

    If a Pinko can be allowed to enter a committee hearing with foul and offensive matter and display it, what’s keeping a HGT (Home Grown Terrorist) upset with Congress, from doing the same thing, except with anthrax or sarin?

    What’s remarkable is that Henry Wax-off, or whomever continues to allow these people access to these proceedings/meetings. He/they know the nut cases intend to disrupt whatever is going on. What happens when they allow them in and they assault someone? Is the person who granted access going to be held partly responsible for the act?

    The $20 billion extortion from BP to Obama- its backed by a government lien on BP, which means Obama gets first crack at the money, ahead of American and British retirees who did the safe thing and buy bonds in highly rated companies.

    Shades of GM and Chrysler, Obama protects his own, and screw old people with investments. Most of them are probably white anyway…

    Obama is President now, and even Bush let Ramos and Compean rot for a while in a US prison, so anything is possible.

    Seems like I saw this same protestor at a financial hearing a couple of years ago.

    And OBVIOUSLY these people are props staged by members of the committee.

    How odd it is that they never show up at the military committee hearings any more. So much for being an anti-war group. Now they are simply exposed as a paid tool for the democratic party.

    So far I think all that I have heard is scuttlebutt. However there is a thing on Moderate Voice that is (in my opinion) so poorly written that it doesn’t make sense. It does allude to the American tourists killed in Mexico and someone in the U.S. threatening to hunt the perpetrators down and if I understand correctly, bring them to the U.S. for trial. I must have been under a rock somewhere because I’m not remembering this, at least not from the TMV article. I have heard other mutterings but nothing definite.

    And, she attended Columbia University, the world’s leading socialist stink-hole, and center for American deconstruction through radical activism.

    Yeah, talk about the theatrics at Congressional hearings is important. However, is it more important than what was said, or not said, by the actual hearing participants?

    Yep, knuckleheads do show up and make fools of themselves, but why waste time on them when more can be gleaned from the witnesses and the questions and statements made by the Representatives?

    This is beyond diversion.

    Code Pink and their antics are a slow sixth place to what Tony Hayward had to say about what he knows, and does not know, about the Gulf oil leak, or how drilling is done in really deepwater.

    And regarding deep water drilling…. the drillers go where the radical leftists force them to drill.

    Most likely, lefties are cheering on the flow of oil out of that well. “If it only could get REALLY bad…. Obama will forbid drilling FOREVER! Yea!”

    Admit it. That’s what liberals are saying at the bath houses as we speak.
