On Friday afternoon, several members of Code Pink distributed pink price tags and Bush Buck$ detailing the human and financial costs of war to Pittsburgh consumers.
Code Pink held a colorful demonstration on all four corners adjacent to the downtown Kaufmann's turning Black Friday Pink.

If that's true, he's too stupid to spell Terry Moran's name right. There's no "s" at the end.
Or else, he's too stupid to spell "moron" and his friends were too stupid to notice and warn him before he made a fool of himself.
Either way, he's stupid.

Andrea Dworkin is super-gross, but that chick in the first picture on this page is pretty hot. And I don't think that "cow tounge" woman is photoshopped.
And why the fuck are we splitting hairs on that "Get a brain morans" picture? That picture is like 5 years old and just about everyone on the internet has seen it already. Can't we just admit that BOTH the Left and Right have stupid and ugly people?

Theirs vs ours

Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2005 at 10:54 AM
Maybe I should have just quit awhile ago but I got say something. That "Theirs vs. Ours" picture is so slanted. Now granted, Janet Reno and Andrea Dworkin (megayuck!) are going to be ugly no matter what side you take a picture from, but other than that you took the worst pictures possible from "theirs" and compared them to the best pictures of "ours". Like you've never taken a bad picture of yourself...
Oh and learn to spell the word "libertarian", idiot. If all I cared about was legalizing weed and reforming the voting system (both of which need done, btw) I'd just join NORML and and a voting reform group and not give a shit otherwise. Libertarianism is more than just legalizing drugs and voting reform, its about fair taxation, second amendment rights, right to privacy, anti-Iraq war, immigration reform, abortion and birth control rights, pro-gay marriage, anti-PATRIOT act, fiscal conservation, abolishing the welfare system, and hundreds of other issues based on the simple idea of "personal freedom with responsability".
Yeah it's a good thing you don't have any "libertrians" as friends, stick with people as brainless and slanted as yourself.

statement
by Alliance of Iranian Women
Sunday, Jan. 22, 2006 at 12:12 PM
The Alliance of Iranian Women protests the actions of the Code Pink activists who have distorted the legitimate struggle of Iranian women, for their human rights, to suit their own political and ideological agenda.
The top part of the picture is what the A.N.S.W.E.R coalition/Code pink activists, have photoshopped the top part of the photo (below), out of the original photo, shown in the bottom. First, they have mixed the picture of some western women to the original Iranian women’s picture. Then, not only they have made up slogans, in pink placards, they have even doctored the courageous gaze of the Iranian heroine into a Cheshire cat grin. The real sign in the back, in the original picture below, is calling for equal justice, not the irrelevant Arabic writing. The young woman in center of the photograph is holding a white sheet in her hand that reads: “We are the children of Cyrus, the pioneers of human rights,” not JOIN US. Also the girl, on the right holding the large sign was not a part of this demonstration; she is yet from another photo taken last year at the Tehran University sit-in that was in protest against the Islamic Regime paramilitary stations around the University campus. Her sign in the original picture read: “This space belongs to us”, not HOW MANY LIVES PER GALLON?
All we ask is: if you do not support us do not use us for your own political games and maneuvering.

Sunday, Jan. 22, 2006 at 8:32 PM
Code Pink has been accused of Photoshopping that pic. Proof has not been presented. Maybe they did. Maybe they didn't. There's no way to tell from what we've seen so far. All we know for certain is that unsubstantiated allegations have been made by a self confessed liar. That's not enough to base a case on. It also pays to keep in mind that, so far, these allegations have all been refuted. If actual evidence is ever presented, we'll have to reconsider. In the mean time, logic dictates that we assume this is black propaganda, just like the other forgeries.
That's the kind of people these right wing trolls are. They forge. They lie. They are totally lacking in scruples. You can believe them if you want. I prefer evidence.

And please don't call someone a liar and mewl about scruples on a site where you've been caught red handed spamming and lying ("Die like a Dog", Google caches, Vancouver, etc). It makes fine and upstanding members of the Global Justice movement look tacky.

Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2006 at 10:07 AM
it is obvious that the poster who goes by many names though complains about forgerys, etal, isn't going to deconstruct the image in question that he claims is a lie. he is only interested in getting attention. my opinion, of course.
"forgerys, etal" (sic)
by a simple explanation
Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2006 at 10:46 AM
There is no apparent mismatch of pixels because the cut and splice was made along a horizontal line where two solid color fields meet, so it wouldn't show. It's a trick. Don't fall for it.
But that's irrelevant. The issue is not used Photoshop. The issue is whether or not Code Pink used Photoshop. Maybe they did, but it certainly hasn't been demonstrated by Smashy. If it had been, he would have not felt the need to resort to spluttering bluster, transparant forgeries and tired ad hominems.
"The issue is not used Photoshop."

I'd not believed it except for what you have done in animating this image. I am personally upset to realize that Code Pink would allow something like this. I am a new member to code pink, and feel like I've been bambozeled by their appearance. I really felt that their true objective was the HONEST portrayal of women who were against war. It is painfully apparent to me now, that there is another underlying objective other than women baning togather to voice their displeasure about the war. I can see no other reason they would use the women of Iraq, by injecting their image along with their own, in order to give the appearance that these women are part of Code Pink. This is irrefutable proof to me that they are not what they portray themselves to be, and I no longer consider myself a member of Code Pink.
Thank you rocket scientist!

I don't know what to believe anymore. I love Amimals of all kinds, and I just wished everyone could be friends and love one another. I just wanted to make a difference for the good of all Mother Earth's children, and was under the impression that Code Pink was a good vehicle for that. But it is, as you have so visually proven, not what it appears to be. I don't want anything to do with a group who has a non spoken agenda. And eventhough I don't know what it's other objective is, I am scared that it isn't good, because if it was, then they would not be resorting to such image tricks. I hope that one day it will be exposed for all to see, because I am afraid that there are others like myself who are being used for something wrong or hurtful.

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things: the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing worth a war, is worse.... A war to protect other human beings against tyrannical injustice; a war to give victory to their own ideas of right and good, and which is their own war, carried on for an honest purpose by their own free choice—is often the means of their regeneration.
