The Moonbats emerge...
An earlier pro-Bradley Manning protest...
President Barack Obama's visit this week to the nation's biggest ATM (aka: California) included several fundraising stops in the liberal-heavy Bay Area and Hollywood.
His last appearance in the Bay Area took place on Thursday morning and, yes, it was nothing more than another high-priced opportunity for him to build-up his war chest for the 2012 presidential campaign.
Held at San Francisco's tony St. Regis Hotel, guests paid between $5,000 and $35,800 -- each -- to hear him give yet another speech filled with platitudes. Along the way, however, things went a bit off the rails. A protest was staged by members of the “Fresh Juice Party” (hey, another hilarious send-up of the Tea Party's name...remember how well the "Coffee Party" went over?).The group kicked in a total of $76,000 to gain entrance to the event so that they could let the president, those assembled and the media know that they don't like the way alleged Wikileaks leaker, U.S. Army Pvt. Bradley Manning, is being treated in pre-trial detention. (See video below.)

Bradley Manning...
So what this group of clowns was essentially doing was to hold a sing-along at an event few witnessed or heard about, and to top it off they were there defending an accused traitor -- a sworn member of the U.S. military who reportedly leaked secret documents. Oh, and along the way fattened the very treasury of the man they have a beef with -- Obama.
Let's remember this: Manning isn't being tortured. At. All. The conditions he lives in might be a tad spartan, but he is in prison. Furthermore, whatever discomfort he's feeling, it's probably nothing compared to the discomfort being felt -- 24/7 -- by our brave men and women serving in the Iraq, Afghanistan and (now) Libyan wars...not to mention their loved ones.
I guess no one ever accused these protesters of being smart...
