Jeeni Criscenzo, Democratic Party nominee for the U.S. House of Representatives 49th California District seat currently held by Republican nominee Darrell Issa, wrote in a blog entry earlier this month from Amman, Jordan of her support for the so-called insurgency in Iraq.
Criscenzo went to Amman with leaders of the anti-American group Code Pink and Sixties activist Tom Hayden to conspire with a group of anti-American Iraqi parliamentarians.
On August 6, writing in her campaign Web site blog which is linked on the Daily Kos blog, Criscenzo said, "It is important to distinguish between the militia, or death squads and the resistance, particularly when considering the amnesty aspects of the Reconciliation Plan crafted in Cairo last month. Over 95% of the Iraqi people oppose the presence of the U.S. troops in their country and consider the people the U.S. call "insurgents" to be patriotic freedom fighters -- no different that (sic) how we look at the people who fought in our Revolutionary War. Heroic titles go to the victors and if justice is to ever come to the people of Iraq, the people we call insurgents will have to be recognized as the ones who are actually defending their homeland."
Criscenzo brought a film crew with her to Jordan to film campaign ads on the trip.

Pelosi's Sister?
Hey, she's one of many I'm sure.
Only thing is she's dumb enough to admit it publicly.
Who does this surprise?
This is a safe R district... 'R' won with >60% in '04
tom hayden...why am i not surprised. treasonous bastard. i cant believe he's still playing the useful idiot to this day. i hope this b@#$% loses.
Well if they only attacked the coalition soliders I guess someone could try to make that case. But most of the deaths are their fellow citizens of Iraq. As a result, this statement reveals incredible incompentency unbecoming of a U.S. government official.
I REALLY didn't need to see that so close to bedtime. Thanks a lot! BTW, what is that hanging down... Oh never mind! :^)
Ah yes, the enemy within. If the FBI could get its thumb out they might consider an undercover assignment - this women will most likely lead agents to terrorist cells in California.

Well didn't she screw the party twice then?...LOL
She has no chance at winning and we can now use this statement to further our point that Dems. root for the enemy.
The Iraqi government, duly elected by the Iraqi people in free elections, has asked the U.S. to remain in the country and help defend Iraq from the "insurgents". The "insurgents" have no moral or legal grounds to stand on. They are terrorists pure and simple.
There is a whole lot of this going around lately, and they are getting away with it.
FYI.
My first freaken thought was whether the folks in murtha's district will see this and have a Come to Jesus moment.
I hope Issa has this information! It's a big plus for him.
The problem is many of these elected officials have ties with various military groups.
Should be different from
Aside from her lousy grammar, she's a moron. She probably learned her politics from the same dumb-me-down public grammar school.
DC Chapter ping!
She is running for Congress when she should be arrested for treason.
Its a strange new world we live in since we gave up charging anyone with treason.
It is indeed. Our country made a big mistake when it gave Fonda, Kerry, et al., a pass on their treason during the Vietnam war.
Only in Mexifornia.
What a doll, eh?
I wish nothing but the worst possible things for this woman. If I posted what I feel about this I would certainly get banned and maybe even go to jail. Just because I'm not posting it doesn't mean I'm not thinking it!
I can do my part! Heads UP!
Not that it's a bit surprising, but this is an outright lie, and she'll most likely get away with it.
Leftists can say whatever they want and never be called on it by ANYONE in the MSM.
It's nauseating.
So true. We know for sure treason has been committed by various people during this war and nothing has been done. It makes my blood boil!
bump
Well it seems the bitch is revealing her true intentions.
That's why we're on the job.
The current gov't of Iraq was democratically elected. Just what are these "patriotic freedom fighters", these "homeland defenders" planning as their 'government', Ms. Criscenzo...hmmmm?
Criscenzo has already been endorsed by the San Diego Imperial Counties Labor Council, Progressive Democrats of San Diego, Democracy for America Meetup #23 (San Diego), and Progressive Democrats of America (national).
Criscenzo has been a leading opponent of the Iraq War since before the invasion. She organized the Bring Their Buddies Home vigils as a non-confrontational way of showing people the human cost of war.
Her campaign website makes clear her opposition to criminal policies of the Bush regime.
She wrote a blog entry on March 6 [2006], advocating impeachment of Bush and Cheney. Criscenzo has also been campaigning lately wearing an "Impeach Bush" T-shirt.
In her blog, Criscenzo wrote: "If we go back to George Washington, American presidents have attached signing statements to laws a total of 322 times up until this president. George W. Bush has done it 435 times….George W. Bush is a dictator in president's clothing. He and his cabal have raped our Constitution, depleted our treasury, sent our kids to go kill and torture other people's kids for the personal enrichment of his cronies and left the poor people of New Orleans to die or become permanently displaced, conveniently remaking that diverse Democratic city, at one of the centers of the U.S. petrochemical industry, into a white, Republican stronghold.
"The future of our country is balancing on a precarious precipice. The Bush cabal is moving full-speed ahead in their plans to establish the Global Empire of Halliburton…. Our only chance to stop this nightmare is to take back Congress THIS YEAR. That means winning a majority in November AND making impeachment of Bush and Cheney our first priority."
Definitely a bad case of BDS!
traitor BUMP
Someone ought to DROP-KICK her right on out of the Congressional lineup!!
I went to the Oakland Airport to pick SFC Greg's younger brother and niece
coming in from Hawaii and so I took that opportunity to take 3 of my signs from our 2005 Crawford, Tx Trek...."Support the Troops" and "God Bless America" in support of our military. Those signs sure have alot of miles on them! HE HE HE! ; ))
I had sooo many people come up to me saying how much they appreciated the signs. One couple...A Navy man and wife, who worked at the VA Hospital was chatting with me about my Support of the our Troops when another lady came and proceeded to tell me how refreshing for to see me there holding up my signs, because when she got on the plane at HILO 'code pink' was there at the airport with all their SICKO retoric and signs!! That made me feel sooo goood that even though I can't for moment be in DC at Walter Reed with ya'll.....I was able to do my thing here in California-Bay Area right in the midst of DUMB DONK territory.
Although I only had one guy say to me, "Support the Troops, but impeach Bush" The Good comments by far outweighed that one negative comment.
GOD BLESS ALL THE DC FREEPERS and others that stand up TALL to the 'code pink' TRASH LOSERS at Walter Reed Hospital on Friday nights!!
Thanks for the "Ping".
This kind of story makes me sooooo mad it is hard to say that!
Good to know. Thanks.
"Over 95% of the Iraqi people oppose the presence of the U.S. troops in their country and consider the people the U.S. call "insurgents" to be patriotic freedom fighters"
I keep emailing Drudge about it to see if he will run the Kos link.
This needs exposure and he can spread the word.
But the MSM will let her get AWAY with it!
It makes me SICK!!!
What part of TREASON don't they understand? I've never in this life expected to see soooo many skate on the TREASON issue.....and yet they continue to get by with it!! WHY?

There, I feel a little better now.
This is a safe seat for Issa.
Check in with Citiz. Smash who is back your way for a bit,
he may be able to give you further info.
He and the PWs and some of us FReepers are on the code pinkos.
Funny thing is, Issa is an Arab-American, but he's on the right side of this war. I think his family is Lebanese.
