The anti-war movement was all over the news before President Obama was elected. But apparently they werent really anti-war ... they were just anti-President Bush. Two college professors just released a study of national protests between 2007 and 2009. What did they find?
After January 2007, the attendance at antiwar rallies [measured in] roughly the tens of thousands, or thousands, through the end of 2008.
After the election of Barack Obama as president, the order of magnitude of antiwar protests dropped [...] Organizers were hard pressed to stage a rally with participation in the thousands, or even in the hundreds. For example, we counted exactly 107 participants at a Chicago rally on October 7, 2009.
Amazing. Especially because the war in Afghanistan ramped up after Obama was elected. American fatalities shot up in 2009 and 2010.
The protesters have remained silent over Libya.

In Hiding with all the Homeless People.
All the old anti-war protesters have all gone to the EPA where they are in the perfect position to screw the country to the wall.
Obama’s in power, so they don’t need the protesters—all part of the Rules for Radicals plan by Soros and his followers.

Bingo!
They are T.D.Y. union thugs.
But on the way to Kenya, her ship was lost at sea. She's not been heard from since.
Medea Benjacrap lives in Obamas ass. She will come out soon. Liberals are so predictable.
“sigging” = siTTing...sorry about that!

Actually, Cindy Sheehan did write a pretty good attack on Barry’s war on Libya, the first day or so. But I haven’t heard from her since. Probably the media just aren’t letting us know what she’s saying, since it’s currently inconvenient.
Here it is. Barack-lujah! I have seen the light! by Cindy Sheehan.
Believe it or not, it’s a very effective satirical attack on Obama and the people covering for his Libyan war. But it’s not getting a lot of mileage from the prostitute press.

We have one that takes place weekly here in Grand Rapids.
What once was dozens of people are only down to a handful of mostly old hippies.
All of the stupid kids that filled out their ranks would rather show how hypocritical they were than dare insult their fur...guy in the White House.
The truth is that they weren’t war protestors, they were Bush protestors-they lied.
