Gateway Pundit ^ | October 16, 2009 | Gateway Pundit

Posted on 10/16/2009 6:50:30 AM PDT by WashingtonSource

Barack Obama flew into San Francisco last night for a fundraiser after spending 4 hours in New Orleans.

He didn't expect this-- Hundreds of tea party protesters greeted the president at the St. Francis Hotel.

The City Square has a report from San Francisco with several photos.

I hope it happens everytime Zero opens his mouth in public.

I hope we can shadow him at every event he tries to attend.

The word is out.

Didn’t I read there were supposed to be lefties out there protesting too? They are upset over his failure to bring troops home. Either way, it is interesting Mr 0 stayed behind closed doors and stuck with a friendly crowd other than having to face critics.

"These protests ALL OVER THE COUNTRY are proof positive that the polls are BS!!!!"

I tend to agree - especially after the Fox Poll that indicated only 43% would vote for him. It will continue to drop and hopefully more blue dogs will walk away on obozo's issues.

I wonder if he spent more time at the fund raiser then in NO yesterday?

You know if he were a Republican and did this sort of BS the headlines would be screaming about how he dissed NO to go hang out with the fat cats in SF.

It already has happened, it just isn't being reported in the MSM yet, with the exception of the Washington Times:

Washington Times: U.S. troop funds diverted to pet projects: Study finds $2.6 billion taken from guns and ammunition

As I told my USAF friends that I sent this to, along with the names and phone numbers of the culprits, if this doesn't piss off the American public, all is lost. I want to see the on this one

Send to Glenn Beck, Rush, Hannity, Savage, Reagan, Hedgecock, Malkin, Coulter et al.; get the truth out to every American that still loves their country and our troops.

The enemies within must be revealed as traitors to America.

I would suggest there are several ‘things of substance’ we can do right now.

Identify conservative candidates wherever you are, at the local, state and federal levels.

Start organizing ON YOUR OWN to get these people elected. Maybe that means picking one to put most of your efforts behind and supporting the others with a donation along the way.

Share ideas among each others’ campaigns. Generally the big issues people are concerned with right now are common across all layers of government. Taxes. Big Government. The economy. Healthcare issues (local govts pay for worker healthcare, schools pay for healthcare).

Make sure you are talking about this with your friends. Get them in the mindset to vote in whatever upcoming elections there are. Get them to volunteer if they are that kind of person. Doesn’t matter if it’s one time or they can keep coming back to help.

Get registered to vote now if you aren’t. Get friends registered now if they are not. Get a bunch of people together and make it a “First Step in Taking Back Our Government” thing, then have a nice meal together.

Make sure everyone knows when and where to vote before the time comes.

Start organizing to make sure to at least ask your own older relatives around you, to help them get to vote, or any older neighbors around you. Do this early. Or help them get absentee ballots beforehand and work with them that way.

Plenty of things can be done. The biggest is having good conservative candidates to offer up against libs that people are just looking for a reason to vote against. They don’t like them now, but they don’t want to vote (R) just for the sake of not voting (D). Reason? McCain. They don’t want to put in a RINO. They not only want to vote against the libs they want to vote FOR someone.

And it is happening in
SAN FRAN FREAKING CISCO!

This was my first thought too. He went to SF because it is "safe"... guess not.
An ad hoc gathering like this in the heart of the beast is very encouraging.

Sweet! Thanks to the conservatives who showed up. We need this everywhere the man goes. It was reported earlier in the week that Barack was only traveling to blue states. We need to show him that he is not immune even in so called “safe territory.”

attack the newscrews.

They need images to communicate “dear leader”

No CNN/MSNBC = No message
