1. I would have thought security would have been stepped up a little by now

that was pretty shocking that those people had the ability to get into his space so easily and stay there as long as that without interference. someone involved with security should be taken to the woodshed for that screw up

3. It kind of looked like they ran out of ammo.
Who knew they would be allowed to stay on stage for so long? Larry was PWND

4. CODE PINK! you are just as bad as fiscally conservative right activists; congratulations
These people fail to realize that without progress, there is no perfection.

An UNCONTESTED wikipedia page says Code Pink describes themselves as a "grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end the war in Iraq, stop new wars, and redirect our resources into healthcare, education and other life-affirming activities."

With Obama we may not have peace, but we have a time limit, a drastic cut in a bloated military budget, anti-torture legislation, and a long-lost international diplomacy.

and it's FUCKING MIND-BLOWING to me that they claim support to "redirect our resources into healthcare, education and other life-affirming activities" while they bash the stimulus bill. Obama has billions going to education, infrastructure, environmental standards, green industries, other "life-affirming activities", and is the first president in our history to legitimately attempt a Universal Healthcare system. OBAMA'S TAKEN MASSIVE STRIDES IN PROGRESS COMPARED TO ANY PRESIDENT (DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN) AND "CODE PINK" IS BITCHING ABOUT AN ADMINISTRATION THATS ACTUALLY ADDING TO THE BUILDING BLOCKS THAT WILL LEAD TO THEIR VISION; FUCK-THEM.

I could see "Code Pink" in the 1930's, "FDR give us our money back!", "The New Deal is a RAW Deal", "3.3 million jobs created, SO WHAT?!", "Unemployment down every year, SO WHAT?!" News flash; FDR was involved in banking and big business too.

5. This is at least the third time you've posted the same ignorant
screed and it makes no more sense this time than it did the first two times. It's very obvious that you didn't watch the video or you'd know that CodePink is not protesting the stimulus bill, they are protesting giving our money to the banks. It's you who has made yourself look MIND-BLOWINGLY foolish, not CodePink.

6. Me thinks you are in the wrong blog. Larry Summers is part of the Wall Street problem.
Who's side are you on?

Code Pink is not protesting the stimulus bill, they are protesting bank bailouts.

Why are you spreading blatant lies? I don't think you're fooling anyone here.
