One Hand Defaces the Other
Code Pink likes Barack Obama — about 50 grand worth of like. Read:
The co-founder of the radical anti-war group Code Pink has “bundled” more than $50,000 for Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, and pro-troops groups are demanding that he return the money.
Jodie Evans, a Code Pink leader, gathered at least $50,000 from friends and associates and donated it to Obama’s presidential campaign, according to information compiled by the nonpartisan watchdog group, Public Citizen.
Evans and her son, a student who lives at her Southern California address, each also gave the maximum individual allowable donation of $2,300 to Obama’s campaign.
Is this the first time a likely presidential nominee has taken money from people responsible for defacing military recruiting offices? The important question is if or how Obama will return their support.
Another question is: Even if we were at peace, what message would a President Obama send to potential recruits?






What? Besides his “I consider flag pins and salutes only good enough for jingoists” crack? Or besides his “clinging to God, guns, and paranoia” fubar?
I think the soldiers already have a pretty good idea…
