Big Obama Fund Raiser Attempted To Storm Stage During Palin Speech

Yikes.

One of Barack Obama’s elite fundraisers from the anti-American group Code Pink attempted to storm the stage last night during Republican vice presidential nominee Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s acceptance speech at the GOP convention in St. Paul.
Jodie Evans, one of a group of about 500 top financiers who have bundled tens of thousands of dollars for the Obama campaign was seized by the Secret Service after she had made her way to side of the stage and and started to yell at Palin.
10:45 p.m. A pair of Code Pink activists just got to the very edge of the stage and were a moment away from apparently running on stage, right by the Kentucky slot on the floor next to a host of McCain’s most senior staffers.
Secret Service men grabbed them at last minute and literally dragged them out.
–Paul Kane
Evans has bundled between $50,000 and $100,000 for Obama as well as contributing the maximum $2300 to Obama’s presidential primary campaign. She co-hosted Obama’s breakout Hollywood fundraiser at the start of his campaign in February 2007.
As a bundler, Evans has been given perks that include regular briefings by top campaign staffers on policy and private meetings with Obama and his vice presidential candidate Joe Biden.

I’m sure Obama will be giving that money Evans bundled for him back, right? After all, the left’s arbiter of change and hope certainly doesn’t condone this sort of protest does he?

    Next time the secret service should let them get on stage. I think Palin could take both of them out.

    ACORN ought to be charged under federal RICO statutes and put out of business permanently.

  • Hannitized

    You didn’t note that her shirt said “Palin, NOT a womans candidate”!!

    You must be biased or something?

    If you watched the vids of the protestors, you’ll see that those seated around the dregs attempt to stop the protestor from going down the isle. THen, to my dismay, you see the ushers insisting that the legal convention goers remain in their seats while the protestor goes un-accosted toward the stage.
    I have areal problem with this.
    I feel that if you’re going to crash an event, you should be ready to withstand the ire of those that supported that event.
    Of course, the decient follow the rules while the illegitimate can’t.

    …and ACORN!

    More evidence that the conductor is guiding the drum beats.
    But, as I’ve heard before, class begets class & filth begets filth.

    You didn’t note that her shirt said “Palin, NOT a womans candidate”

    …And he didn’t provide a word by word transcript of what she was yelling before she was pulled aside, do you have a point?

    Besides, it’s right there in the photo.
