Protest much?

Attendance at the so called "worldwide anti war protests" was down quite a bit this year. It seems that pessimism and hatred for this war is at an all time high. Yet, people showed up in quite low numbers at protests around the world.

200 marched Sunday down New York's Fifth Avenue, 7,000 through downtown Chicago, 10,000 in Portland, 1,000 in Seoul, 15,000 in London. Still seems like a lot of people, right? Well when you compare those numbers to the millions, yes millions, who protested before and a couple years after the war, these protests don't seem quite so large.

If people are really so outraged over this war, more than they ever have been before, then where are they? I guess staying in their homes watching their favorite biased news source.

Crazy sheehan said "The support for this war has dwindled dramatically," she said. "The rest of America is on board with ending this war." You sure don't speak for me Cindy so why don't you watch what you're saying about the "rest of America."
