Street Political Theatre in front of the SF Federal Reserve
These two had a great exchange: "Mr Paulson" was giving away "money" (toilet paper) from the box on the table


Note the guy with the bullhorn and propeller beanie on the right...

And FYI, to the right, though not in these shots, is an Obama table (though I'm certain that the two aren't connected per se...)

4. That's just...excellent...
People like that are the lifeblood of our democracy.

They remind us all that we're not alone, and that it's ok to be outraged and to want
real change.

Not everyone is content--driving around in their SUVs and shopping. Not everyone thinks
this is just hunky do ry. Not everyone wants Congress to blindly sign that blank check.

The biggest revolution begins with a single protester.

5. And they were engaging the passers-by, too
I couldn't quite make out what the fella with the bullhorn was saying, but people were stopping and listening. It was great to see!

7. We are very fortunate, yes
It can be a liberal bubble sometimes, but I'd rather live here and be a little out of the conservative loop than live nearly anywhere else...
