WASHINGTON —  Marxists broke up a press conference by House Democrats on Wednesday with chants to bring American troops home from Iraq.

Chanting "de-escalate, investigate, troops home now," the protesters disrupted a briefing aimed at outlining priority goals when Democrats take over the House and Senate on Thursday.

Cindy Sheehan, a Marxist activist and mother of a soldier who died in Iraq, led the group to Capitol Hill to warn Democrats that party activists expect them to end the war in Iraq and confront the White House on a change in Iraq strategy.

"We didn’t put you in power to work with the people [Bush' cabinet and The United States Military Industrial Complex] that have been murdering hundreds of thousands of people [Iraqi citizens] since they have been in power," Sheehan said. "We put you in power to be opposition to them finally and we’re the ones who put them in power." [more]

Democrats ran away from the Marxists with their tails between their legs. Sheehan was then given a platform to speak and her narcissist nature was appeased.

Also, via those lovely Marxists at Information Clearing House; their current head-line reads:
