I blogged a few days ago about giving my Montana Senator, Jon Tester, my personal copy of Naomi Wolf's “The End of America,” a great must-read book in which the author makes a chillingly credible case that America is far along the road from democracy to totalitarianism. What makes it so convincing is that it's not a secret conspiracy; it's all stuff you already know. “Invoke an external and internal threat...Establish secret prisons...Develop a paramilitary force....” Wolf draws parallels to Hitler's Germany, Mussolini's Italy, and Pinochet's Chile. Get the book. Read it.
Senator Tester told me his mother had called him the preceding weekend and told him he must read this book, so he accepted it and promised to read it on the plane on his way back to Montana.
Wolf's publisher, Margo Baldwin of Chelsea Green Publishing, put a comment on that blog generously offering to give me as many copies as I was willing to distribute to members of Congress! I'm leaving for Montana on Monday, but I asked for 100 copies for all the Senators, and the books arrived on Wednesday. I've been trekking from the CODEPINK D.C. House to the Senate office buildings for the last two days with bags full of books, got some help from another Pinker, Karen, today, and I'm almost finished. The last few will be distributed tomorrow. Let's hope at least some of the Senators remember they took an oath to protect the Constitution and actually read Wolf's book.

Distributing Wolf's book huh? Do you not see an issue when the leaders of Code Pink go down and hug the dictator Cahvez and yet you distribute a book basically comparing President Bush to the great dictators in history. YOU PEOPLE ARE FUCKING LOONS!
When a leader works for the people instead of against the people, Code Pink feels that needs to be rewarded regardless of ideology. Bush is not working for the people of the US. He's only working for the rich and for those foolish and stupid enough to believe the constant lies he and his administration manufacture. You are the loon, and also a coward.
I agree Eileen, we need real leaders like Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro. We at Code Pink love the communist liberators!
The Liars March for Tyranny and Oppression: Commie Claws are Coming to Town
Kerri Houston
The media is already characterizing the protesters as “anti-war activists” and their organization as “peace groups.”
Nothing could be further from the truth. They are communists. They are not in favor of peace; indeed, they are hell bent on inciting a communist revolution here in the United States.
Because there aren’t enough of them to occupy an entire city block, they snatch the well meaning into their grasping clutches by misrepresenting their true agenda and hoodwinking college students, grandparents, and soccer Moms with a social conscience into participating in their rallies. Afterall, a rally with only 10 people is, well, a meeting held outside.
So far the media either has not discovered the true nature of protest organizers, or it is generally unwilling to report it.
Communism is a failed political ideology spawning government sponsored terrorism responsible for the murder of over 100 million souls and the unimaginable misery of hundreds of millions more during the 20th century. Its political leaders have sanctioned genocide, giving us the killing fields of Pol Pot’s Cambodia, and the intentional starvation of 10 million Ukrainian peasants in 1933 by Josef Stalin. Millions of innocent Chinese were starved by their communist government resulting in reports of horrifying stories of villagers sacrificing children as a food source.
Modern communists recognize that most people find murderous thuggery distasteful. They wisely do not want to be associated with the brutal realities of past and present communist dictatorships of Stalin, Castro to Kim Jong Il. They have therefore hidden their real agenda behind ideals of which we all approve, such as “peace” and “justice.”
United for Peace and Justice is the chief sponsor of the Inaugural protests and it is run by Leslie Cagan, a longtime communist activist and devotee of Fidel Castro who was active in the American Communist Party commencing in the Vietnam War era. She was also a member of the Communist Party USA’s Committee for Correspondence. Her goals are the promotion of communism and the destruction of the current U.S. system of democracy.
UPF was deliberately formed as a false public and “moderate” voice to shield the American Marxist movement. Their water was originally carried by A.N.S.W.E.R., a communist front “anti-war” organization that was the brainchild of the Stalinist Workers World Party, but when A.N.S.W.E.R. showed its true colors at one too many anti-war rallies, the organized Left became nervous, prompting the formation of United for Peace and Justice with Ms. Cagan in charge.
Formal members of the Peace and Justice Coalition include state chapters of A.N.S.W.E.R., Committees for Correspondence, Communist Party USA, Communist Party of Vietnam, Ruckus Society, Not In Our Name (NION), September Eleventh Families for a Peaceful Tomorrow, MoveOn, the Communist Parties of Maryland, New York and Indiana, The Exploding Goldfish, Tennessee Guerrilla Women, Code Pink and the Marxist Feminist Lesbian Jamaican Radical Poets.
One of the leaders of A.N.S.W.E.R. is President Johnson’s former Attorney General, Ramsey Clark, an outspoken communist activist who has volunteered for the Saddam Hussein defense team. He founded an organization that supported former murderer Slobodan Milosevic and current murderer Kim Jong Il. He is a director of the post-Trotsky Workers World Party and claims that Osama bin Laden is a victim of U.S. terrorism. He believes that our government deliberately set out to make Islam its enemy so that we had a reason to build more things that go boom.
Brian Becker, another protest organizer and member of UPJ’s partner A.N.S.W.E.R was recently found in North Korea proudly denouncing the U.S. for “war crimes” against that country’s citizens while accusing our soldiers of committing mass murders. He is also a member of Clark’s organization and the anti-Semitic Workers World Party, which incidentally, is on the FBI’s terrorist watch list.
Code Pink, another “anti-war” organization hiding its ideology, is run by communist associate Medea Benjamin. Code Pink has primarily chosen women to lie to, taking advantage of the genuine concern that some homemakers and grandmas have about the Iraq war and using them to add voices at local protests.
Benjamin’s main claim to fame is organizing the violent 1999 World Trade Organization protests in Seattle in which she used the Marxist World Worker’s party to help supply bodies. The ensuing riots injured innocent bystanders, caused millions of dollars of property damage for business owners and taxpayers, and left many out of a job. A long time friend of Cagan and Central American communists, Ms. Benjamin was instrumental in the founding of Peace and Justice.
Ms. Benjamin also has formed a group in Baghdad called Occupation Watch dedicated to demoralizing U.S. troops by encouraging them to abandon the Iraqi people and obtain discharges under false pretenses. She was also behind placing in Baghdad the pre-war “human shields” whose dedication to the cause was quickly revealed when they headed for high ground just prior to shock and awe.
UPJ’s partner Not in Our Name is a group with connections to the Revolutionary Communist Party and the Maoist Revolutionary Communist Party. Communist activist Clark Kissinger was an instrumental member of the 1960’s violent Students for a Democratic Society and the Black Panthers and founded an organization dedicated to halting U.S. security interests during the cold war. He is a co-director of NION.
Parents, if your well-intentioned college student is participating in a “peace” protest on Inaugural Day, these are his or her partners.
They are not patriotic Americans who love peace and hate war. They are unpatriotic Americans who love communism and hate us. Human freedom is their enemy, and they have snared thousands of uninformed protesters into their web.
They are brilliantly deceptive as they cleverly incorporate their communist beliefs into activism that they cover in a mainstream cloaking device. But if they are so dedicated and proud of their beliefs, why do they strive to hide them?
Communism was, and continues to be, a plague on mankind. It has caused incalculable economic and ecological destruction as well as extinguishing the human spirit of millions of our global neighbors, past and present.
As today’s communist movement ironically uses the freedom of speech stripped from those under communist rule to ruthlessly and deliberately promote their agenda, we must never forget those who have suffered under its hands.
In our own act of irony, let’s commit a positive act of compassion by taking an active step to honor communism’s victims. Thank them for reminding us of the tyranny that is communism and go to www.VictimsofCommunism.org to donate some of your ill-gotten gains of evil capitalism for a monument to be built in Washington that reminds us of a brand of human suffering we must never allow again.
That’ll really hack them off.
As an active duty soldier and Iraq War Veteran, I have to ask;
Why do you claim to support me, that I am a victim of sorts, yet you march with Jane Fonda? Do you not realize that she spat on returning veterans during Vietnam? Do you not realize that she accused our P.O.W.s of lying, saying that the North Vietnamese didn't torture them?
Why do you claim to support me, and then protest outside a recruiting station, calling our active duty service-members "traitors" and "murderers"?
Why do you claim to support me, but instead lie about me? There are nearly 100,000 Iraqi civilian casualties at this point. Yet code pink and many other anti-soldier organizations just like yours claim that the Iraqi civilians were killed intentionally by Americans.
Our primary mission in Iraq now is to PROTECT CIVILIANS FROM THE INSURGENTS. WE ARE DOING THE BEST WE CAN.
During my last tour in Iraq, there was a very popular Imam (equivalent to a priest or rabbi), who spoke through his mosque telling the locals to support American efforts, to help fight out the foreign insurgents, rebuild Iraq despite foreign insurgents tearing down what we helped them build, but mostly to work alongside the Americans even at the risk of their deaths. He was silent for a week, and was found beheaded in his mosque lobby with a sign next to him reading "Anyone who helps the Americans will meet this fate. Glory to Allah."
I have seen first hand what insurgents do. They don't just target Americans, they prefer unarmed civilians. I saw an 8 year old girl take three shots in her back from a sniper who was trying to draw us out so he could kill us. The girl died, but the interceptor body armor that the military gave us saved every man that went out there to try saving this girl, including me.
But Code Pink claims the Iraq money is being squandered, not being used to protect civilians. That our body armor is insufficient. I know that if an up-armored helicopter could fly, which it wouldn't because of the extreme weight, we would have it. Our fighting vehicles are more than sufficient. I was riding in an up-armored Humvee (M1114) that took 2 RPGs, an IED, nearly 100 rounds of 7.62mm to the windows AND IT KEPT GOING THROUGH THE WHOLE MISSION.
I suffer from PTSD, several of my friends were permanently wounded. We are all receiving the medical care we need from the VA. Even one soldier who stepped on a booby-trap, lost his left leg, his left hand and all but three fingers on his right. He is getting all the care he could possibly need.
Why don't you come up with a list of VA hospitals that have been shut down since 2000? Include locations, dates, reasons why, and anything else that could be considered pertinent.
So here is my freedom of speech. By the way, all Americans have that, including soldiers like myself. If you really do support freedom of speech, then spread around what I have written without editing it. Answer my questions, truthfully and clearly without dodging the issues.
Do you really support me?
Why do you accuse me of murder, but out the other side of your mouth call me a victim?
Why don't you tell people that our current task in Iraq is to protect unarmed civilians from foreign insurgents?
Why don't you tell people that Iran is supplying these insurgents with weapons?
Why don't you tell people that most Iraqis don't want us to leave until their country is safe from foreign insurgents?
Why don't you remind people about Saddam Hussein slaughtering Kurdish and Shiite civilians after the first Gulf War? Do you find it irrelevant?
Why do you claim we are given insufficient body armor and vehicle protection, even though not a single member of your organization knows a thing about the subject of armor and physical protection?
Why do you march with a woman who posed for pictures with a North Vietnamese Anti-Aircraft gun crew, called torture victims liars, and spat on returning veterans?
I will not lower myself down to the level of name calling, but I must say that it makes me sick to have Americans like you bad-mouthing me and then claiming to advocate me. You should find something better to do with your time, like actually figure out what we, the soldiers, are doing over there.
I may disagree with why we invaded, but we are doing good things over there. I'll be surprised if you have the spine to repost this.
Naomi Wolf is a joke. Narcisstics do not care what they say, just so they get mega attention. she is a fool in more ways than one. She is all that she accuses BUsh of being, she should be put on a most wanted list. She is the loon and the coward, It takes smart, informed people to know this.
