Who Let Them in the Building?

A couple of Code Pink skanks somehow finagled their way into the XCel Center last night and nearly rushed the stage while Sarah Palin was speaking.

It would be interesting to know how they managed to get so close to the stage.

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.

Speaking of Code Pink, Jim Hoft went off on them yesterday and has more on this disturbance.

More here.

South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster, who oversees security inside the convention hall, said the two California women had authentic credentials and had worked their way to the side of the stage backdrop. The women never made it on stage, McMaster said, but they did shout obscenities during the speech. As the women tried to push their way toward the stage, McMaster said, a sign language interpreter was bumped and slightly injured.

My suspicion? Someone in the media gave them passes.
