Where Have all the Anti War Protestors Gone?

Posted on June 17, 2011 by Susan Kehoe

Mark Shea points out that under President Obama the US is now involved in five wars. Yet the anti war protestors have disappeared.  One of the reasons that Obama was elected was due to statements such as this:

The President does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation.” – Senator Barack Obama, 2007

So where are the anti war protestors? Long time passing.

    I have a good friend who will defend Obama till the end. He’s big union and claims to be still be a devout Catholic. It doesn’t make sense to me. He uses his FB has a political forum; not pleasant to read.

    Yet he just said that he can continue to lead operations in the NATO military action in Libya. He is working without Congress and he is actually flaunting it! ARRRGGGGGHHHHHH
