What is the purpose of having that in front of a hospital where men and women are fighting for their lives? Is this your sick "show of support"?

It sure is when you're protesting the closing of Walter Reed.

Nice try.....When you cannot make a rational argument for these disgraceful signs, misrepresent every word of what I say.

I certainly did not misrepresent what you said and I did offer an reasonable explanation of why they were protesting in front of Walter Reed; citing a sign that was supportive.

I guess you could have looked it up yourself....

CODEPINK Responds to Right-Wing Attacks on Walter Reed Hospital Vigil
Since March, CODEPINK has been holding vigils outside Walter Reed hospital on Friday evenings, to shed light on the plight of injured soldiers and call for more support and funding for injured veterans returning from Iraq and Afghanistan. These are vigils, not protests, and we believe they’ve helped roll back attempts to make soldiers pay for their own meals, phone calls, and daily hospitalization fees. The right-wing attack on CODEPINK and the Walter Reed vigil is nothing more than a smear campaign against the peace movement designed to distract attention from the disaster in Iraq. Press Release.

Now maybe you could justify your basis for calling Code Pink "commies"?
