Feinstein's Home Sit-In Target
NBC Bay Area ^ | Sun, Jan 9, 2011 | MATHEW LUSCHEK

Posted on 01/09/2011 10:34:59 PM PST by nickcarraway

Protesters staged a sit-in protest outside Sen. Dianne Feinstein's home, Sunday. The demonstrators were protesting against the inhumane treatment of Bradley Manning, the Army private charged with supplying classified information to WikiLeaks.

Co-founder of CodePINK Medea Benjamin said in a press release,

"We are demanding Bradley Manning be freed, and that the U.S. close Guantanamo now," adding. "Since elected officials swear in to uphold the constitution we feel all of Congress has a serious responsibility to come to a citizens defense when their rights are so seriously being violated, as Bradley Manning's are being violated." The protest was scheduled at 9:30 a.m. and included a rally at noon at the Golden Gate Bridge.

Go for it. Sit your booty down and protest to your heart’s content. I am sure Di-Fi appreciates it.

I feel like Gulliver on his travels. I don't know where the heck I am. Turn him loose? The little prick should be tried for treason, and maybe water boarded to make him give up his accomplices and admit to the money he took for the info.

We are in a war, our military are in harm's way, and he gives up secret info. Treasonous in my book. Of course, there is the precedent of Jane Fonda and fellow travelers on the left.

Maybe he WILL get free and go on to be a prof at one of our expensive centers of brainwash,er, higher learning. Ayers, Doorn, Davis for role models. Yep, he was just trying to live the new American dream.

He’s a citizen? I thought he was the property of the military.

Uh, go to the WH and “sit down”. Pinkos elected hussein to shut down guantanamo, stop the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Instead, their “hero, keeps guantanamo open, continues the “illegal” war in Iraq and INCREASED our presence in Afghanistan by 30 THOUSAND men. On foreign policy alone they should be pissed at hussein.

I know, but anything that annoys Diane Feinstein is not going to bother me very much.

We're giving Pilate two days to dismantle the entire apparatus of the Roman Imperialist State.

That part is cool. Glad to see these dorks sitting in front of Feinstein’s house.

As for Medea Banjamin she should also be locked up for treason.
