From the Orange County Register online:
[Congressman Dana] Rohrabacher has supported the Bush administration on the war in Iraq.Then, the protesters started shouting: "Bring them home! Now!"
As the pitch rose, the congressman ran out of his grey stucco home. He was barefoot.
"You just woke my babies!" Rohrabacher said. He and his wife, Rhonda, have 2-year-old triplets. Rohrabacher said he was on his back porch when he heard crying over a baby monitor.
"I am going to get all of you arrested if you don't leave right now."
"My son is in Iraq!" responded Tim Kahlor, 48, whose son is on his second tour of duty in Iraq until January 2007. "And he does not get much sleep!"
"Did he volunteer?" Rohrabacher yelled back. "Wait a minute, man, you are standing on my property. You are violating my rights… And you are violating my family's rights!"
Pat Alviso, a teacher whose 30-year-old Marine son will deploy in Iraq for his second tour of duty next week, said the activists tried to visit the congressman in his office last Wednesday, but were told that his calendar was full.
"Did somebody call my office ahead of time?" Rohrabacher asked.
"I met with people all last week, I talked to them about the war…. But unlike you, they were courteous, they were not arrogant." [emphasis added mine]

I was thinking alonf the same lines. His house is located in a very modest neighborhood, specially by Orange County standards.
sorry, did not see your post, but GMTA.
That's what I was thinking.. Except I would have used the pressure washer and squirted them down..
'I don't believe that "did he volunteer?" is a good response. '
Of course it is unless you are a class warrior.
'We have too many feminized young men in this country who are not sharing in the sacrifice. '
All to the good wimps don't belong in uniform.
DU is another website.

So...where does Pat Alviso live.....?
What short-sighted people these "protestors" are.
Looks like PA's Rep. Pinker John Murtha and VA's Rep. John Moron.
Multiple deployments and recalls to active duty for yet another deployment... are all part of the enlistment contract. There is no one over there in Iraq who did not sign a volunteer contract. And with this burden all being widely known, the army this year again met its recruiting quota. And yes, unemployment is low. It's not like these troops need jobs.
Effete young college metrosexuals not needed and "drafting them" would be disastrous given the attitude of entitlement and self-centeredness and elitism most of them have been raised with. Thank you from and to middle class America for once again stepping forward
Have a great day.

NEVER FORGET
We are now in a new Time of War,
with our own Freedom in danger of being lost right here at home.
And there are those who are purposely doing all they can to make it so.
As always, to win at War one must first...
...KNOW YOUR ENEMY.

It seems that these protestors would be disrupting traffic, disturbing the peace and possibly creating a "hostile environment".
And, did they have a Permit? Must have a Pemit? Fees to the city...

And DANA is NOT alone out there..!!!

Rohrabacher looks fit enough to take them on personally.
Correction: That is not Congressman Moron in the picture with Pinker John Murtha and House Call; that is another guy who looks like Moron, PA's Rep. Robert Brady. (typo olert: the 'a' occasionally sticks on my keyboord) ond sometimes I hove to use an 'o' insteod ;-)
True, but it also allows others to protest liberals at THEIR homes. Protests over their stance on abortion, Christianity, terrorism, domestic security, the homo-agenda, and more .. are all now fair game to be protested 24/7 right at their doorsteps.
The moonbats are outnumbered (i hope) in this country. If the conservative types decided to return the favor and protest the leftists, they'd freak out.
Whatever they are .. they're ON ROHRABACHER'S PROPERTY - and he should have them arrested for trespassing.
