On April 9, 2011 CODEPINK, World Can't Wait, and other activists staged a peaceful protest of former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice during her speaking engagement at the National School Board Association conference in San Francisco, calling for accountability for approving war crimes on behalf of the Bush Administration. 4 activists were ejected from the event by security. Sign the petition to Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate Bush Administration war crimes: http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/424/t/4589/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=1921

NEVER LET THE WAR CRIMINALS FORGET THEIR CRIMES!!

democracies don't go invading other countries based on lies!
democracies don't let war criminals go scott free and travel around on bogus speaking tours.
democracies don't let people at public events get hustled out by the police when they speak out about war crimes!

This fucking bitch should be tried for war crimes yet she gets touted around on television and the lecture circuit like some wonderful person. Fuck you Condi!

3. You know what really pisses me off? The fucking people around that
recording device and their sneering comments about the protesters. While they are there at that event thinking they're being all patriotic they openly chastise protesters practicing their right to free speech.

God-damned idiots. Fuck them!

5. I wondered how many of them would protest against Obama
and scream if they were forcibly removed.

4. Stock and standard reply from Repukes like Condi...
"Isn't it great that they live in a country where their voices can be heard?"
*massive applause from peanut gallery*


Would love to hear someone say in return, "Yes, and it would be even better to live in a country where we actually prosecute war criminals like you!"

10. They aren't really educators, they are school board members
On our 9 member board we have ONE with teaching experience. he's an educator. And the rest are elected officials.

7. "the children of Iraq..
are not living under saddam husein" that's right condi - they are living, or should I say, dying because of the war that you were instrumental in starting. how do these people live with themselves? why do audiences listen to her and pay her to come and speak? evil!

9. Sheep going to hear a war criminal talk
Whatever happened to critical thinking by the school board? Inviting a known war criminal to be a speaker is sad.
