CNS is a BS rightwing smear site. Quit posting articles from them. Some of their stories are deliberate outright lies, others are just hokey.

Remember, CNS was the outfit who put out the phony story that democrats had taken millions from Jack Abramoff, when they didn't get a red cent from him. So it's just a rightwing GOP hit site and they will say anything to try and slow down Hillary Clinton or defame any other democrats.

Actually, Hillary is extremely careful oni any ethical matters and doesn't have a real blark mark in her entire career. That's really care. She has also never done anything personally scandalous or distasteful. So quit trying to make up stuff and debate real issues.

On the flipside, a progressive site like Rawstory never makes up any stories. They are excellent on factual accuracy, and you should start being so yourself, you and the entire rightwing. You people have gotten way too used to lying and pretending that's OK. It;'s a terrible thing, and it's responsible for huge disasters now, like in Iraq and the rich corps ripping off trillions from the American people.

500 Troop Supporters vs 150 Code Pink Clowns

>Showdown at Berkeley

by Catherine Moy

Sept 18, 2007

A showdown between anti-war activists who last month defaced a Marine recruiting office and flag-carrying patriots took over a street in Berkeley on Wednesday with noise levels that reached a half-mile away at the University of California in town.

Berkeley police officers kept the Code Pink contingent of about 150 separated from the group of about 500 led by Move America Forward, the nation’s largest pro-troop organization. The incidents of abhorrent behavior were rare, but included an anti-war demonstrator trying to knife a pro-troop supporter and two code Pink followers burning flags.

A group of Code Pink protesters surrounded a woman and pushed her around after she said that her brother and other family members were protecting the United States in Iraq. The young woman shook with fear and wept.

“It makes me sick,” said Megan, whose last name is withheld to protect her from harassment. “Code Pink is out here every week protesting in front of the Marine center. These people (Marines) are just trying to do their jobs.”<
