From opponents of illegal immigration to anti-war activists, demonstrators are gearing up for the presidential candidates' first and only confirmed joint appearance before the party conventions this Saturday at Saddleback Church.
...
Authorities expect anywhere between 800 to 1,500 demonstrators to line up along sidewalks surrounding the church, said Lt. Don Barnes, chief of police services for Lake Forest.
Ian Thompson with A.N.S.W.E.R Coalition (Act Now To Stop War & End Racism), said his group is expecting many hundreds to protest the war in Iraq, among other issues.
...
At least 15 different protests are expected outside the church, including one organized by a coalition of Minutemen organizations.
More than 100 anti-illegal immigration activists and Minutemen members will rally with specific demands: to free former Border Patrol agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean and to withhold federal funding to sanctuary cities.

The conventions are at the Saddleback Church this Saturday?
I wouldn’t care if the protests got so out of hand they had to cancel the “forum”.
It’s going to do nothing but make the smooth-talking B. Hussein come across looking good and snooker the weak and less intelligent believers while making John McCain look like a confused, old dolt.
I hope I’m wrong but wait and see.
Is that what my 7th Grade Language Arts teacher called a “missplaced modifier”?
Right on.
It seems that the writer and editor didn’t make it past 7th grade. Or maybe they did, in today’s schools.
Rick Warren isn’t even touching on most Christian moral questions. He’s openly avoiding many of them, which makes me think he’s turned into just another fake TV preacher personality, only with a twist. He refuses to openly ask about abortion or homosexuality for fear of offending Obama.
He’s got to get the Dalibama away from earplugs, cuecards and liberal moderators.
