(Saturday, January 29, 1972) — In a recorded telephone conversation with John Connally, U.S. President Richard M. Nixon describes what happened the previous night when a woman with the Ray Coniff singers pulled a small silk banner from the lowcut bosom of her blue evening gown and displayed it.
“Stop the killing,” the black letters on the blue background said.
Carol Feraci, 30, then spoke into the microphone on the small stage in the East Room of the White House.
“Mr. President, stop the bombing of human beings, animals and vegetation,” she said. “You got to church on Sunday and pray to Jesus Chris. If Jesus Christ were in this room tonight you would not dare to drop another bomb. Bless the Berrigans and Daniel Ellsberg.”
Carol Feraci is an American hero.

Carol Feraci accomplished nothing and made an ass out of herself.
Thanks, Tom. She had the courage to speak out before a roomful of criminal warmongers but your concern is that she embarrassed herself. Touching. And yes, she failed to end the war, so “loser!”
I love Carole Feraci. She did a beautiful, courageous thing. Remember how beautiful and courageous that was. Silent Night Holy Night Carole Feraci. Peace on you girl – from Scotland with a hand across the ocean.
