"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Why There's No Anti-War Movement Any More

"What’s missing [since the Viet Nam war era] is any sense of connection to the government, any sense that it’s 'ours' or that we the people matter. In its place — and you can thank successive administrations for this — is the deepest sort of pessimism and cynicism about a national security state and war-making machine beyond our control. And why protest what you can’t change?" Well, that and the fact that most progs would rather choke on their own vomit than criticize Obama.
