The Kitchen Dispatch: "Right Wing Extremists" Party. Visit Code Pink. Wonder --Is Jerry Brown The New Pink?

Update: We've been made aware that the original photo shared here and pictured on Jim Hanson's post on the Big Peace blog is a fraud. So we've updated the original post about Jerry Brown's fundraiser at Code Pink with video footage of them branding those who serve as "war criminals." Note that Code Pink has done enough nefarious things not to need doctored photos, and so we've shared few of them in the below article (follow the link). While there is the right to express our opinion, when it comes to attacking the men and women who serve, I feel compelled to rush to their honor. We have had enough struggles overcoming the treatment given to Vietnam veterans, and to help this current group make progress in their own lives, taking groups like Code Pink to task for the heckling and perpetuation of stereotype is necessary.
"This includes trying to kick the Marines out of Berkeley, telling Gold Star Mom Debbie Lee that her son deserved to die, and branding Marines war criminals."
