#7  There doesn't seem to be a ground swell for protests in the U.S. against the Libyan [whatever it is]. We are getting like the French; there's some protest going on all the time against something. Reminds me of that line: "What are you protesting?" "What have you got."

#6  I am somewhat concerned about this. During W. Bush it was no sweat, and the anti-war radicals knew they had to watch their P's and Q's, or else Bush would stomp on them like insects.

But Barry is a weakling, and his Attorney-For-Black-People-Only General would do nothing to stop such protests from becoming violent.

The anti-Vietnam movement really built up strength during the time of LBJ, so by the time Nixon came along in 1969, the radicals were ready to break out, and break out so strongly that they seized power over the Democrats in 1972.

Granted they only have through 2012 to get organized, but they are trying to, with union backing.
