A few (awesome) anti-war protesters show up at Iowa straw poll (with huge banners of truth)

http://caucuses.desmoinesregister.com/2011/08/13/a-small-group-of-anti-war-protesters-at-iowa-straw-poll/

this group stood in between, MN Channel 5 and another news station van. Yet they didn't get that "equal coverage" they usually give teabaggers at progressive events. Hummm.

The protesters held signs reading, �Support Children. End War,� �W.A.R: Wasted American Resources,� and �U.S. is not broke, just broken priorities.�

We support the troops. We are against runaway military spending. It is bankrupting this country and subverting our laws,� Rowley said. She and other protesters said they want to bring American troops home from Iraq, Afghanistan and other wars.

( wish I had more pictures to show, maybe other papers covered it)
