Nobel Peace Prize for WHAT? The third day of President Obama's term, he authorized and increased DRONE attacks against Pakistan; this spring he asked for and got over $130 BILLION dollar war supplemental; by June he doubled our US troop size in Afghanistan and could be requesting an additional 40,000 troops; he's leaving 134,000 US troops in Iraq.
Protest President Obama's continuing Bush's foreign policy of war and occupation, not to mention torture and assasination policies.
Bring signs: Obama do NOT DRONE ON! War under Bush, War under Obama, is STILL WAR! Troops Home NOW!
Wear hot pink! Or just BE THERE!

According to the SF Chronicle
[see http://www.sfgate.com ],
Union Square will also attract
RIGHT-WINGERS protesting against Obama
(organized partly by radio stations).
Yuck.

The distinction between left and right is becoming blurred because much of it is based on a false dichotomy. The smart people in either the left or right camps don't want a boot on their face whether it comes from a Democrat , a Republican, a fascist or a communist . They understand that Obama is just carrying out the same policies as the Bush administration, but with a kinder, gentler approach.
The wiser people understand that the powers trying to control us know by using the "divide and conquer" approach, and this is used to create distrust and confusion among the left and the right. They're very good at doing this, and many of us fall for it. However, we do have a lot in common.
Many in the "right" groups fear the coming of an all powerful government that can take their property and their rights. What has the government done in the last few years? Taken exactly those things by transferring wealth from the middle class to the ultra rich and powerful.
But, unless the left is of a severe communist strain, most of the left/progressive movements want their civil rights returned and are supporters of property rights, (i.e., if you buy a house it is your property, not the governments). Hence, left and right have some commonality of thought.
We can see that both middle class and working class Democratics and Republicans have been robbed by the ultra rich. With the Banking Bailouts, which Obama supported, he helped create in the biggest transfer of wealth and property in the U.S. History. See economist Katherine Austin Fitts on the massive scale of the transfer.
We've all been robbed by the people that really control this country — the people controlling the Federal Reserve and the parasitic commercial and investment banksters they finance.
We are all in this together against "them".
