Code Pink Resorts to WitchCraft to Boost Numbers

It had to come to this, didn't it?

The women's anti-war group has told ralliers to come equipped with spells and pointy hats Friday for "Witches, clowns and sirens day," the last of the group's weeklong homage to Mother's Day.

"Women are coming to cast spells and do rituals and to impart wisdom to figure out how we're going to end war," Zanne Sam Joi of Bay Area Code Pink told FOXNews.com.

The group's week of themed protests, which included days to galvanize grannies and bring-your-daughter-to-protest, appears to have done little to boost its flagging numbers.

A FOX News camera, which has a 24/7 live shot of the recruiting center's front door, recorded little action, and the gatherings have, until this point, been ill attended.



People are getting sick of them. This shouldn't be a big surprise. The fact that the city council supports their protests isn't surprising, either. What I'm surprised about is that the residents of Berkeley haven't raised their arms in protest that these Code Pink folks are disrupting the businesses in the area.

It doesn't help that thier choice of colors is SO 1990's. Maybe if they went for something a little more modern, like mauve or burnt umber...
