Even the so-called "Peace Advocates" are in a quandry...

Excerpt

...... That is the lesson we learn from the Vallejo Times-Herald in the Napa area of California thanks to the hypocritical actions of “peace” activist Patricia Kneisler.

You see, Kneisler has decided to abandon her annual “peace” vigil in Benicia, California. Why would she do that? After all, we are still in Iraq. Not only that but we are about to ramp up actions in Afghanistan if the president can be believed. Why dump the “peace” vigil now since “peace” still hasn’t been achieved?

Let’s let our hippie friend tell us why:

“People are really conflicted now,” Kneisler said, explaining how many of the demonstrators felt they should not be protesting the war while Obama established his administration.

‘Peace’ Activists Not Sure How to Protest Obama

Good to see the truth coming out...leftists really don't care about the war, only that it involved Bush.

No. "leftists" (whoever they are) look at the facts and the testimony of people in the administration in 2002-2003 and see that we were all lied to about the invasion.

All we care about is not fighting wars built on lies and manipulated facts.

Whatever happens there from here on out will remain Bush's fault. Not because he's an easy scapegoat, but because he created an unwinnable war for no reason.
