Lining the streets outside the President's Kailua vacation home Saturday, protesters hoped to send Obama a message against the funding of abortion services in health care legislation now under consideration in the House and Senate.  Many passing drivers honked their horns in support, but some devotedly pro-Obama motorists had a markedly different reaction.

Jacquelyn Skaf from the Pro-Life Coalition describes Secret Service officers threatening her and her 2 year old daughter with arrest and yelling at a Catholic priest who refused to move from the grass along the roadside. 

An Obama devotee pulled up close to her child and yelled "somebody should have aborted you!"  Then, according to Skaf, "A lady let go of the wheel of her car to use both hands to flip off the peaceful demonstrators....and crashed into the car in front of her."

KITV news carried images of the aftermath of the fender bender in which nobody was injured.

Also outside the President's beach-front vacation retreat:  Hawaiians denouncing the Akaka Bill which would place them under control of corrupt authorities controlling an artificial Hawaiian Indian tribe.

And the Maoist front group "World Can't Wait" complained about the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and US support for Israel.
