Video: Code Pink Protesters Call Donald Rumsfeld 'War Criminal' at Press Dinner

At Saturday's White House Correspondents Association Dinner, some Code Pink protesters, including founder Medea Benjamin, answered the timeless question, "How do you make people feel sorry for Donald Rumsfeld?"



This has got to be the most clownish protest since the NYU "takeover" in February. My favorite part is when the first one says "I wish I had some handcuffs!"

Really? The only thing standing between you and slappin' the cuffs on Rummy is a missed shopping trip to Spencer Gifts?

This kind of thing annoys me, because it makes all liberals look stupid. Code Pink has become such a joke, even liberal politicians are calling them out.

In this case, I also cringe at the thought of these two patting themselves on the back for "fighting the power." Sure, the Tiananmen Square guy is in awe of your ability to annoy a guy before dinner.

It's especially galling to see this now, having spent a few days with real activists who actually work hard to affect positive change, eschewing attention-whoring techniques like this.
