❏ Questions
1. What happened to the anti-war protests reported by the media during President Bush's administration?
2. Were they trumped up by partisan politicking?
3. Are Americans really in support of the unWars in Iraq and Afghanistan?
4. Or do Americans feel impotent to change a thing?

The wars belong to Obama now. I predicted it. They are now important, much needed wars.

It's easy to be on the sidelines and snipe at the guy at the top. But when you're the guy at the top, who is attempting to prove something, then it never occurs to you that you're "that guy" you hated earlier, because now YOUR GOOD INTENTIONS drive the actions, not the evil ones the "other guy" had.

1. Fatigue (you can only protest for so long before you sound even to yourself like a broken record)
2. Yes (nothing new)
3. Not important (more important things happening at home)
4. It depends (who knows what one's vote is worth?)

[5. Do Americans really want change?]

The media and entertainment industry's irrational love for Obama overcomes any of that.

First off See American's reaction to calls for troops on the ground in Syria.

1. Obama support apparently means only 100 percent support even if for unjust war, or so the agenda media wants you to think*. Thanks to the negative media stereotyping on Occupy, and it's negative plants(Black Bloc) Liberals won't even support their ilk. Also note that, Traditionally liberals protest, conservatives contact representatives, vote, etc. Looks like there's was a lot of message in the way of contacting Reps this time around, both sides, war protests did happen but were largely ignored by the media.
2. Yes, those in support unfortunately. What better way?
3. No they are not. See American's reaction to calls for troops on the ground in Syria. See above*
4. Apathy, conquer and divide, distractions, and the nanny state...
