Pro-Pot/Anti-War Leftists in Oakland to Protest Obama, Not Over Economy, Over Medical Marijuana Crackdowns and Afghan War

The Obama-supported Oakland Occupiers

Typical drug using leftists. This is hilarious because it's Obama's base.

From SFGate:

Oakland may be a proven bastion of support for President Obama, but his planned visit to the politically charged city Monday is expected to lead to the first major downtown protests in months.

Medical marijuana advocates are staging what will likely be the biggest rally as they urge Obama to halt a Justice Department crackdown on dispensaries. Antiwar activists are coming, too, lending energy to the barrage of criticism that Obama has been taking from the activist left.

As us conservatives know, if you criticize Obama it's due to racism so this protest must be racist, according to liberal logic.

If the president wanted this kind of attention, he picked the right destination.

Among East Bay stops on Monday, Obama is set to appear at a fundraiser that starts at 4:30 p.m. at the Fox Theater, which sits on the edge of Oaksterdam, Oakland's unofficial cannabis district, on a block where Occupy activists have clashed with police.

But lefty's claim Occupy is peaceful.

Between the rallies and street closures related to Obama's security, the downtown area may be tough to negotiate. Some businesses that fall within a Secret Service perimeter will have to close for the evening.

Obama continues his WAR ON SMALL BUSINESSES. He seems to enjoy costing the middle class to lose wages.

Police, who are beefing up their presence, urged people to avoid the area or use public transportation.

"Expect delays no matter what," said Sgt. Chris Bolton, chief of staff to Police Chief Howard Jordan.

He said he wasn't worried about political protesters causing trouble but about others hijacking their events.

Cough...Occupy thugs and anarchist goons.

"If there are problems," Bolton said, "they will be with those small groups that have historically caused acts of property damage and violence."

...Occupy Oakland protesters have announced no specific plans but said they may join other protest groups.

I enjoyed this part of the story. A stupid devoted Obama supporter who fell for Obama's bullshit is really upset that Obama isn't radical enough in her eyes...

"Obama made a lot of promises and spoke a big game in his campaign to become president. He used language and concepts familiar to the radical community," said Occupy activistLauren Smith, 30, of Concord. "But what he did when he got into office was decide to be the great compromiser. ... People feel really betrayed."
