Code Pink and Iraq Veterans Against the War protestors disrupt John McCain's acceptance speech at the 2008 RNC in Minneapolis, MN. I mean, what do these people think they are gaining here? Do they think someone is going to post their pictures on a blog, mention their group and not talk about John McCain's speech?
