[FONT=times new roman,times]Prominent among the 150 or so Americans who think President Ahmadinejad of Iran is the cat's meow was one of Barack Obama's big fundraisers.

Jodie Evans - co-founder of Code Pink with Medea Benjamin - had a tete a tete with the tiny terrorist following his speech before the UN. Evans is a main fundraiser for Obama, having pledged to bundle $50,000 for the candidate.

Seems only fair. Obama has said he will meet with Ahmadinejad with no preconditions. Evans and the rest of the loons went Obama one better and grovelled for an audience with the terrorist.

His country is selling munitions that are killing their fellow citizens, training terrorists who might one day kill them, and threatening to annhilate an ally because of their religion. And then we get this as a solution:

[FONT=times new roman,times]Peace parks and bicycle factories? Yep, should we cut the cake celebrating the end of war now or wait to see if they open a more "sustainable" bakery?

Pathetic. And what will be the American Jewish community's reaction to such a prominent Obama fundraiser meeting with an avowed enemy of the United States and Israel?

Judging by the way liberal Jewish groups sabatoged the anti-Iran rally this week, perhaps they will just keep their mouths shut until Obama is elected.

I've said this before that there are a lot of people in this country who believe Obama is a Muslim sympathizer who will make concessions with the terrorists if elected.

LOL, Obama "main" fundraiser.

"she has pledged to raise over $50,000 for Barack Obama as one of his main bundlers"

Wow, she pledged to raise. Did she make it Fucco? You think one individual can donate more than the allowed amount by Federal campaign laws? How about all them PAC contributions that your ilk gets that are a helluva lot more than 50K.

Did she contribute an amount that would certainly qualify her as his "main" fundraiser?

If not, then you are a fucking blowhard.

Evidently the author of the fucking article thinks so. Whether you agree, I really don't give a fuck.

So you just pass off shit without verification as some kind of major fucking epiphany? That makes you nothing short of a peddler of horsecock.

Did you try to actually verify these claims or just decide to do a Doc Mercer on the rest of us with this Nat'l Enquirer, blog universe bullshit.

Weak Succo, weak.

Official release: CODEPINK activists and other peace organizations meet with Iranian president in New York

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Leading CODEPINK activists and other peace organizations meet with Iranian president in New York
NEW YORK — Calling it a “major step forward” in relations between Iran and the United States, leading activists Medea Benjamin and Jodie Evans of CODEPINK Women for Peace — along with more than 150 other U.S. peace group representatives — met Wednesday afternoon with Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad here following his appearance at the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday.
At the meeting at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, coordinated by interfaith peace group the Fellowship of Reconciliation, the peace activists talked to Ahmadinejad about their desire to strengthen people-to-people ties between the two countries. They presented several proposals for the Iranian government to consider and copies of a petition signed by 50 U.S. mayors all over the country calling for diplomatic engagement with Iran, not military action. The petition, promoted by CODEPINK, illustrates how local U.S. leaders are anxious to move national resources away from military intervention and into reinvestment in infrastructure, schools and health care. CODEPINK proposed taking a delegation of U.S. Mayors to Iran to create “sister cities.”
“U.S. government officials are quick to stir up hostilities with Iran, but the American people are tired of war,” said Benjamin, co-founder of the nonpartisan women’s peace group CODEPINK. “The peace movement represents the sentiment of the majority of Americans who want our two countries to find ways to work together and improve relations. We are modeling the behavior we want to see our government adopt.”
The CODEPINK women proposed inviting American and Iranian artists to build a “peace park” in Tehran, a memorial dedicated to people-to-people commitment to peace and diplomacy between our two countries.
They also proposed a plan to invest funds in an Iranian business, one that produces green and sustainable products, such as bicycles. This grassroots investment would be the opposite of efforts by the Bush administration and Congress to tighten sanctions, a move which CODEPINK thinks would only hurt ordinary, everyday Iranians. Such a symbolic CODEPINK investment in a green, sustainable business would challenge U.S. regulations blocking trade with Iran and would show how diplomacy and trade are preferable to war and sanctions.
The meeting, which took place in a cordial and positive atmosphere, was considered a great breakthrough.
“It’s rare for a head of state to take time during an official U.N. visit to meet with the peace community, especially in a situation where the host government—represented by the Bush administration—is so hostile,” said Evans, co-founder of CODEPINK. “The fact that the meeting took place and was so positive is, in itself, a major step forward.”

CODEPINK meeting with Ahmadinejad is like GTC addressing the United Nations.
