A couple of days ago, the questionable message and court jester-style message delivery came together to bring Code Pink perhaps its biggest moment in the spotlight yet. What Obama was saying didn’t matter to Benjamin since she came into the room planning to be heard and nothing he said — no amount of ostensibly giving her what she wanted — was going to stop her from being heard. And so she yelled. As usual. She shouted and ranted about the CIA and Muslim-killing and DRONEZ! and so on and so on.

Every week we do a round up of the awesome comments left by readers of ‘The Blaze’ – Glenn Beck’s nutty, rightwing version of the Huffington Post.

There will always be people who look at Muslims, specifically those who hail from places like the Middle-East and Africa, and see only barbarians. These people will invariably be wrong; every Muslim, Arab, African etc. is no more assured of being a ruthless murderer than every member of any other culture on the planet. But a question has to asked about what it takes within someone’s personality to be able to literally try to decapitate a man, in public or otherwise.
