*Despite some pro-Socialist Rhetoric, this video is a great example of how Obama’s troop surge has alienated his liberal base*

With very short notice, a couple hundred people showed up at Terry Schrunk Park in downtown Portland this evening, December 2, 2009, to protest President Obama’s decision to escalate the Afghanistan Occupation by 30,000 more troops.
As one sign said quite clearly, “the Honeymoon Is Over.” Well, at least it might be for those who swallowed the campaign rhetoric and convinced themselves that this particular politician is different, that he isn’t the typical political face dancer, that he would regard their opinions and honor his word.
