Where are all of the protestors now?

| August 8, 2009 9:00 PM

For the last few years we were forced to read posters, and watch protesters at the Court House and on the Long Bridge protesting the death of American troops in Iraq.

Today, marked the highest death toll of American troops in Afghanistan in one month. Forty proud American will never see their country or families again but not a protestor in sight. Are the American troops in Afghanistan of a lesser value than those who died in Iraq? I think not.

You have to ask yourself, why the difference; where is Code Pink, where are the socialists and Democrats? Were all those protesters protesting the war or was it a fraud to put pressure on the American people to vote against the Republicans and President Bush.

Well, what now protesters? You got what you wanted. President Obama, higher taxes, highest job loses and a health plan that will destroy health care as we know it. Of course there are the higher heating, fuel and electric  bills that will come with cap and trade. Government run banks, Insurance ,health care, auto company’s where will it stop?

Just keep letting  congress passing Bills they don’t read ,President Obama will save us, right, just like the tooth fairy
