The AP reports today that two more soldiers were killed yesterday, bringing this week's total to 9 U.S. deaths. See the AP story here:

Where is the outrage from the anti-war protestors these days. Is that type of activity only reserved for non-leftist administrations?

Where's Code Pink, the Occupy gang or the other usual suspects that selectively voice their outrage when it's convenient to serve the cause of their masters?

You don't suppose there's another double standard present here? Nah, those groups are probably just fatigued following their messiah around on all his campaign stops and golf outings.

If the anti-war movement truly believes in promoting peace, why don't they publicly voice their concerns when a Dem is president?

Ever since Barack Obama allowed the terrorists to take BART on their way to destroying the twin towers, we've been in the malayze that is Democratic denial. If the Democrat party had'nt started the war in Afganistan, it would'nt be going on over their right now.

cholo, you've managed, once again, to totally avoid the subject and directed another personal attack as you are unable to focus. ADHD or PTSD, I don't care what your issue is.

The subject is, where are the anti-war pacifists and their leftists allies now that a dem is occupying the W.H.

Please go ahead an defend these hypocrites.......
