G-20
Do you see these protesters?! YIKES.
Getting more and more hectic.
More are coming, but they say it probably wont turn violent.
Mostly environmental campaigners and Anti-Capitalists.
On a lighter note, i'm watching Obama's Press conference with Gordon Brown. I can sense a stark difference in this room.
They're lovin' him!
He is undoing anti-American sentiment in Europe and beyond. This makes me very happy.
Sadly, i think he sounds a little stuffy and his eyes are a bit cloudy. I think he has a cold

I was watching the coverage of the protests on CNBC and of course the talking heads on that show just don't get it. The people in the streets are not nutty anarchists. They seem to be regular folks that are fed up with the rich money boys in New York and London who have totally screwed up and don't seem to have to pay for any of their crimes. I think these kinds of reactions are going to get a lot worse as time goes by.

I would hardly call the world press and international journalists there today 'toadies'.
Most are highly educated and experienced.

I'm wondering what the G20 leaders actually talk about at their meetings.
I can see all the heads of state turning to President Obama and saying 'ok bro, we finally got a US president we can stomach. now how you gonna fix the freakin mess we got ourselves into?'
