Anti-war protests come to congressman's lawn:Rohrabacher
About 35 members of Military Families Speak Out face off with Rep. Rohrabacher at his house in Huntington Beach.

About 35 people, carrying anti-war signs, walked down the quiet street and knocked on the congressman's door. Surfing gear and a couple of children's strollers were on the porch. A window fan was working.

But no one answered.

The activists from Military Families Speak Out, three of them with sons serving in Iraq, went to a nearby park.

They returned with a giant mock check for an "endless war" and put it on the doorstep of Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Huntington Beach. Then, one by one, they placed black combat boots on the grass. The boots had tags with names of soldiers killed in Iraq.

1. Wonderful. Perhaps all our little hawks need a visit.

2. Ugh. Rohrabacher is absolutely one of the worst of the GOP.
Loud, obnoxious, and wrong on all the issues, and apparently with a little chickenheart beating inside that puffed-out chest he likes to beat on.
