10. "We have the option of voting their asses out" So how did that go in 2008?

Back to the drawing board!

So did you really expect the anti-Iraq invasion march to stop it???!!!

That's not why those action were mainly called!

Unfortunately, most of the "anti-war" organizations grew tired of marching once or twice (they go sore feet after walking a few blocks) and stopped demonstrating.

Instead, some of these groups mainly campaigned for anti-war candidates like Barack Obama in 2008.

That worked out real well, a lot better than marching!
