You know what?

In reality I bet they are protesting this. But if the establishment media doesnt have an interest in publicizing it, it won't get legs.

So when Bush was in office, CNN just had to put a cam crew on ANY protest no matter how small.

Also notice how we don't get the daily body counts anymore? They stopped right around 2008. The media controls what we see to a large degree. If they dont show Code Pink protesting, then they arent protesting
Even Huff Post can't deny it...

WASHINGTON -- Code Pink won national attention during the presidency of George W. Bush for its high-profile protests against the Iraq War. On Monday evening, the anti-war group was back organizing a rally against the Obama administration's launching of an aerial campaign in northern Iraq.

But the contrast between this latest protest and those of the past was jarring: Just seven people showed up.

Reminds me of walking by the Federal Reserve building in DC and seeing not more than 3 or 4 people holding "investigate the Fed" signs. I probably met Spanos and didn't even know it. :lol:

Obama sounds an awful lot like Bush 41
For those who could close their eyes for a moment during the president’s 15-minute speech, the arguments Mr. Obama made for American interventionism sounded much like those offered by the first of the four presidents to announce military action in Iraq, George Herbert Walker Bush.

Not the worst guy to sound like. One of my favorite modern Republican presidents.

But, the action is more akin to Clinton's in 1998 than either of the Bush's, imo.

Thank you, I was afraid I was being too subtle for the average tea party conk halfwit that seems to thrive here. Even dumbcuck didn't get it, and he's usually on the ball.

Funny thing they're missing is that I'm agreeing with the conks here that whimpered and sniffled and bleated about Obama not deserving the Nobel. They were right: he didn't do anything to deserve the peace prize except follow the biggest war monger (I'm a war President) to hold the office in a hundred years and to not look like a complete buffoon in front of the entire planet. His career has been charmed that way since he was a State representative.

Romney? Haha, he couldn't campaign his way out of a paper box much less run a country.

It's the goddamn Bushes fault in the Middle East anyways.

If bombing doesn't work, use bigger bombs.

25-30 years ago when I was in high school I advocated nuking the Middle East. Seriously, if we did that now would it be the same as taking a 15-yard roughing the QB penalty on the 1st series to knock him out of the game. The cockroaches keep coming back, just pull out the weapons our tax money pays for & get it done...

They'll probably be more careful in the future. Probably would have been that way with the big O if he hadn't followed such a miserable failure of a President.
If all it took was great rhetoric and following a miserable failure of a president, then Reagan would have gotten one.

Two problems with your theory:

a) Obomba has been at war his entire presidency (hint: he's a "war" president)
b) He looks like a complete buffoon in front of the entire planet on a daily fucking basis.

Other than that, you're correct. :lol: :lol: :dunce:

Why do you think I refer to him as a moderate Republican all the time? :)

And hell, if we'd done it 25-30 years ago, we'd be 25-30 years into the 700,000,000 year uranium 235 half-life and that much closer to being able to occupy the land again! 8-) 8-) :coffee:

:lol: You said it, not me....... good effort but you raised the bar too high back when you explained how an employee grossing $300/wk brings home $435/wk with no OT so we expect a bit more from you than from some of your buddies..... :mrgreen:
