Who Invited Code Pink's Medea Benjamin to Obama's Speech?
Breitbart Big Government ^ | Friday, May 24, 2013 | Kristinn Taylor

"The voice of that woman is worth paying attention to."-President Obama paying homage to Medea Benjamin.

SNIP

...Benjamin and the group she co-founded, Code Pink, have worked with state sponsors of terrorism, terrorist groups and domestic terrorists to undermine the U.S. and her allies in the war on terrorism. However, Benjamin and Code Pink have also worked with President Obama at the same time to accomplish some of the same goals--beginning in early 2007 when Obama tapped Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans as a fundraising host and then as a fundraising bundler for his nascent presidential campaign. Code Pink has even acted, at times, as a messenger between terrorists and Obama.

Like Code Pink, Obama has worked to end the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan without U.S. victories. Like Code Pink, Obama has worked to close the terrorist detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Like Code Pink, Obama worked with the Muslim Brotherhood to overthrow the Egyptian government of staunch U.S. ally Hosni Mubarak. Like Code Pink, Obama worked to overthrow Libya’s Muammar Gaddafi, even after he gave up his nuclear weapons program and allied with the U.S. against al Qaeda. Like Code Pink, Obama ignored Iran’s Green Revolution and threw in with the mullahs and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. And, like Code Pink, Obama ‘palled around’ with Weather Underground terrorists Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn (Code Pink palled around with Cathie Wilkerson as well.)

Given her background, Benjamin’s submission to be cleared by the Secret Service for the event, even as press, would have lit up the protective agency’s computer screens like a Christmas tree. Her ties to Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iraqi ‘resistance’, Iran and Cuba, etc., would raise red flags that would likely have to be overridden by someone in the Obama administration’s press or public engagement office.

Valerie Jarrett? This Code Pink broad wasn't removed immediately. As a matter of fact, she started ranting again about 5 minutes after her first tirade. This was clearly staged to bolster 0bama's justification for closing GITMO.

A man is nearly decapitated on a London street, then the next day 0bama grants the hunger strikers at GITMO their wish. It's a 'win' for the terrorists.

I wouldn’t be surprised if “O” himself invited her.

She gets in to just about any event she wants so yeah, I gotta believe it’s part of the show. It’s not like they don’t know what she looks like or what to expect from her.

A Sister Souljah moment. It's all part of the plan to reconstruct Obama, complete with “newly discovered” high school prom pictures.

And medea doesn’t even need any make up other than her “V” costume once in a while.

I think it was a set up because like my hubby and I said yesterday, Obama had this smirk on his face that was almost like an overkill to being an expression of a surprise.

The same administration that rolls out the red carpet for the Muslim Brotherhood and makes the Israeli PM come in through the side door. History will be a very harsh judge, never mind the holy book: if 1 Kings 16:30 says that Ahab “did evil in the sight of the LORD above all that were before him”, how much worse is the Obama administration in a time that Jesus described as being like the days of Noah?

So obviously staged actually did lol
Only the low information folks are blind to it.

Reminds me of:
50% of lawyers and doctors graduated in the bottom half of their class!

How long have we FReepers observed and fought against her “dirty tricks”? Seems like forever!

Yesterday I compiled a list of her activities and asked Rush to evaluate the possibility of an orchestrated event.

“Always let the reader come to his own conclusion”...RUSH

...hearing him today I hope it means he followed his own path to the story he just presented. I bet he got a lot of contacts!

The Code Pink lady Medea (note it was just her; so much for a spontaneous demonstration, only a solo staged event) for purposes of Obama’s speech was his hired Greek Chorus. She said what Obama really couldn’t, about the Muzzie terrorists being on a hunger strike (poor little terrorists) to give Obama a helping hand with his base. And to give him a reason to once again try to close Gitmo right away. All a total setup, and so phoney. Geez, Captain Obvious. But it will work with the low information voters out there.
