How did you feel when you learned that the multimillionaire founder of Code pink, Medea benjamin, held hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of stock in Caterpillar, Intel, and general Electric, all companies on the BDS list? Did anyone in Code pink call her on her hypocrisy?

So "ask me anything" was a lie. Ignoring the issue doesn't make it go away. There is something very disingenuous about a multimillionaire playing populist. I can't help but wonder what her real agenda is.

Not exactly, but nice try. Medea has been listed as the CEO since 2009, and the target companies have been listed to at least 2012. I suspect they'll be gone for 2013, now that people have pointed out the sheer hypocrisy of her investments.

It's a public tantrum. Not the most effective advocacy.
