As the White House prepared for the highly anticipated meeting with the President and GOP leader on the budget battle, so did a lone demonstrator outside of the black iron gates of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. There is a new twist to an old strategy of demonstrating at the White House. Tuesday Morning, a child was outside the gates screaming at the over 200 year old building professing God and denouncing President Obama on abortion and homosexuality.

According to authorities, the 11-year-old, allegedly from Los Angeles, was part of a protest Monday outside the White House, the day before. Today, a rainy and cold day in DC, he stood waiting for the Republicans to arrive at the White House. He even chanted in support of House Speaker John Boehner. If you are wondering where his parents are, he said, "his father has a restraining order against him." Secret Service Police questioned him and he was expecting someone to come back at lunchtime to bring him food.
