I agree with you. code pink was against bush's war-mongering. They could care less about obama's war-mongering.
A few Code Pink activities since Obama took office:
- June 3, 2009: Code Pink flew a banner that said "End the siege of Gaza" at President Obama's Muslim-outreach speech at Cairo University.
- October 31, 2009: Code Pink organized a protest rally outside the White House to coincide with President and Mrs. Obama's official Halloween party.
- December 31, 2009: Code Pink was one of the organizers of the Gaza Freedom March which brought over 1,300 people from more than 43 countries to join Gaza Palestinians in a non-violent, mass march to the Israeli border.
- May 11, 2010: Code Pink attempted to arrest Karl Rove at a book signing.
- June 8, 2010: Code Pink heckled House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over lack of funding for states.
- March 2011: Code Pink members demonstrate outside of the FBI headquarters in support of suspected Wikileaks leaker Bradley Manning.
- May 23-24, 2011: Code Pink members disrupted Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu's speaking engagements, both at a policy convention and at the United States Congress. Code Pink member Rae Abileah was arrested and charged with disrupting Congress.
- September 11, 2011: Code Pink activists marched across the Golden Gate Bridge while calling for troops to leave Iraq and Afghanistan.
It's good to see that you guys recognize how important it is that Americans continue to exercise their 1st Amendment rights. :director:

I have no qualms with demonstrators. Honestly, I havent read code pink in the news lately. Must be the liberal press at work:tongue
Those are from "The Book of Knowledge", aka Wikipedia.
Good luck finding MSM coverage of OWS, let alone the activities of a fringe group like Code Pink.
