So this is what the GOP does on their time off.


...Tara Setmayer, (click here) spokeswoman for Rohrabacher who attended the meeting, had a very different account.
She said the congressman challenged Bravo's position, as any Republican would when being confronted with a pro-amnesty argument.
"He asked her: 'What makes you and your family more important than American citizens and people who come here legally?' " Setmayer said. "If you're going to come here to advocate ... you should be able to defend your position. She clearly didn't know how to answer that, and it was quite apparent that she had been very scripted."
Bravo's chaperone, Minerva Gomez of the Orange County Congregation Community Organization, said she stepped in to end the meeting when things escalated.
The two left and, Bravo said, Rohrabacher followed them out of his office "yelling and shaking his finger." She said he asked if his office had her contact information, to which she replied "yes."
"He said, 'Good, now I know where you live,' " Bravo said. "To me, that felt like a threat to me and my family and everyone I am here to represent."...

And if taking on immigration oppression isn't enough for the busy Mr. Rohrbacher, why not seek to be your own CIA and start the next Middle East War. In actuality, the guy is about as far out on the fringe as one can get. He has been in Washington too long. He actually thinks he is somebody. Only to FOX News, sir, only to FOX News.

AP, Paris, 18 Feb 2013 — With its militant wing (click here) no longer a terror organization as far as the U.S. government is concerned, an Iranian opposition group hosted a U.S. House delegation for the first time Sunday and briefed the lawmakers on the fallout of a deadly rocket attack at a refugee camp in Iraq.
The National Council of Resistance of Iran, a France-based Iranian opposition group, gave a raucous welcome at a Paris hotel to the four representatives, with rhythmic clapping and chants of “Thank You!”
But the talks focused on a Feb. 9 rocket attack at a refugee camp in Iraq that houses many of members of Mujahedeen-e-Khalq, or MEK, the group’s militant wing. Seven people died and dozens were wounded, the exile group said.
U.S. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a California Republican, accused Iraq of breaking its promise to help protect the 3,100 refugees who now live on the former American military base known as Camp Liberty. He said he hopes the attack will help accelerate international efforts to resettle them abroad, while issuing a warning to the government of Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki....


Now this is what I call diplomacy. Recognize a radical Iranian group as legitimate after removing them from the terror list so they can build more faux intelligence and be the next Curveball while defaming the sovereign Iraqi government and threatening to put them on the terror list. Can we get rid of that list, too?

...“Put everybody on notice — and I think I speak for our whole delegation. ... If there is another attack on these helpless refugees by the government, obviously cleared by the government of Iraq, we will move in the United States Congress and put forward a resolution not only just condemning the act but declaring Prime Minister Maliki and his government state sponsors of terrorism,” Rohrabacher told reporters....

The guy is a Right Wing Nut. Hello? Why do we ever give this bozos time off? They never do anything worthwhile anyway?

The same group Rohrabacher affiliates with is said by Iran to be responsible for the deaths of Iranian nuclear scientists.

Updated: 11:14 a.m. ET -- Deadly attacks on Iranian nuclear scientists (click here) are being carried out by an Iranian dissident group that is financed, trained and armed by Israel’s secret service, U.S. officials tell NBC News, confirming charges leveled by Iran’s leaders.

The group, the People’s Mujahedin of Iran, has long been designated as a terrorist group by the United States, accused of killing American servicemen and contractors in the 1970s and supporting the takeover of the U.S. Embassy in Tehran before breaking with the Iranian mullahs in 1980.
The attacks, which have killed five Iranian nuclear scientists since 2007 and may have destroyed a missile research and development site, have been carried out in dramatic fashion, with motorcycle-borne assailants often attaching small magnetic bombs to the exterior of the victims’ cars.
U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the Obama administration is aware of the assassination campaign but has no direct involvement....
Now, President Obama and the Executive Branch may have nothing to do with this, but, it would seem as though Congressman Rohrabacher affiliates with this extremist group as if a friend to the USA. I want this investigated and I want him brought up on charges. He can't run his own war department on his own terms.

AND.

According to an Executive Order, he cannot threaten Dreamers, either.
