    It’s okay, it’s just some of Obama’s illiterate kids, conducting his presidential re-election campaign. They might have become a bit confused with all of the drugs and all… lol

    The NYT Magazine, of all places, has a pretty good piece on how Oakland, FAR more than San Francisco, is the last redoubt of OWS moonbattery:

    Just for shits and giggles, check out this thread at DU where they argue whether the miscreants were right wing bullies, the Alex Jones followers, or blackbloc,http://www.democraticunderground.com/101418495 even though the local news reported this: http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/story?section=news/local/east_bay&id=8761493

    We should disarm them and pass a ban on baseball bats, sticks, and 2×4′s.

    All of this because they can’t find jobs, have student loan debt, and have to pay for their own housing, utilities and food………..no wait my bad…..apparently they don’t like the pot stores being shutdown.

    It was all part of the plan.

    Obama Organizer (Not Reggie Love): Okay, here’s what you do. Go to city hall and ask for a permit to protest. Yeah, yeah, I know you’ll be denied. That’s the point, see? Get denied, get “angry” (Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink), march down Telegraph and throw a brick through OUR window. Yeah, I know, but we gotta make this look good. I’ll make sure a few of the office hotties are on duty for some great screaming. What? Yeah, the hot one; with the dreads and glasses and knit cap. Hey, that’s as hot as we get in the democrat party. Anyway, when our press arrives, I’ll say it was those teabaggers! No, it won’t matter. Even if they find out is was you guys, the teabagger angle will be out there. No, then we’ll just say you’re angry because those bitter clingers are keeping Obama from his socialist glory! No, trust me. This will work. You guys get moving. I’m gonna go get a latte with the hot-tay! If ya know what I mean! Yeah, the one with the dreads and glasses and knit cap.
