Okay, maybe hate is a strong word. But I've seen enough of women making themselves look ridiculous by wearing hot pink aprons, bonnets, and other acoutrements of traditional femininity, and then attracting all sorts of negative attention by heckling at public functions (such as the DNC Winter Meeting). Now they've really taken a step too far: they're camping out, Crawford ranch style, in front of Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco home! For real! Give the lady a chance to work pragmatically to end the war! When was the last time any of these Code Pinkers tried to negotiate with the Bush administration and Congressional conservatives? As a very smart senior colleague of mine once said, "If you chain yourself naked to a tree to protest the war, the story will be, "Crazy person is naked, chained to a tree,' not 'End the war.'"

Werd.
