TAMPA, FLA. — A group of protesters from the women's rights group Code Pink interrupted Mitt Romney's speech at the Republican National Convention tonight.

That the protesters were able to obtain credentials to the convention — let alone one that enabled them to get so close to the stage — and that they were able to sneak in huge pink signs is actually a pretty incredible feat given the level of security at the Republican convention.

Ron Paul’s real constituency is Stormfront, just like David Dukes. Or in plaintext - National Socialist.

If you call Ron Paul conservative, you are insane.

Did he get DWS and Sandra Fluke in just to be spiteful, too?

Worst. Security. Ever.

Keep in mind that the SS works for Obama, and the local cops work for a Dem mayor.

Romney will need to do some housecleaning.

-—— the women’s rights group———

lie..... Code Pink is a pure Marxist communist group. They represent everything that is bad. Allowing them to live is a great tribute to American freedom

those “signs” are fabric, so they were rolled or folded.

Romney should have stopped and said “This is why we can no longer allow these people to run the country”.

Well, these "real Conservatives" should align themselves with a real conservative movement (like the TP) and not leftists like Code Pink if they want effective conservative change. That's just stupid.
I attended a political function a few years ago (rally? town hall mtg?..I don't remember what it was - I'm old and I've been to a few since then...).
There were various groups outside the hall wanting you to sign up, sign petitions, etc. One of these was "The TEA Party", another one was "The TEA Party" but these folks were pushing Ron Paul, too. I thought it was very strange at the time, that they separated themselves from the other Tea Party.

Aren’t ‘credentials’ enumerated and cross-referenced to the person to whom they were issued?

Isn’t there a disclaimer on the issued credential stating they shall NOT be re-issued by bearer to a 3rd party?

Can’t it be determined who gave the creds away (whether a Ron Paul delegate or media) and then bring down a hammer on them?

I'm kind of thinking that the media gave them the credentials, and they were real quick to blame the Ron Paul people! Prolly those MSNBC clowns. Romney needs to get it figured out real fast.
