Michigan snowmen protestors


Snowmen populate the lawn of the Capitol in Lansing, Mich., Feb. 23, 2010. A group opposed to raising taxes in Michigan wasn't about to let a good snowstorm go to waste. A group called Common Sense in Government crafted more than three dozen snowmen on the state Capitol lawn to greet lawmakers coming to session Tuesday. The snowmen held signs with slogans including "Don't raise our taxes!" and "I'm mad and I vote." (AP Photo/Lansing State Journal, Rod Sanford)
