I dont agree with him that people are protesting only now "because they were afraid of protesting Bush but are not afraid of protesting Obama because The Democrats are the wimpocrats?" Excuse me?
While it is true that the Democrats are certainly weak when it comes to dealing with foreign enemies, they are not weak at all when it comes to dealing with domestic political opponents. Far from it actuallly. What the hell is he smoking there? How the hell is it couragious to protest against Bush? What would happen to you? Certainly Bush was at the height of his popularity around 2003, but how was it "couragious" to protest him? Bush certainly didnt accuse anybody of the kinds of things that Obama himself accuses people of. Bush didnt tell people to "get in the face of people you didnt agree with".
The reason people are protesting only now is because under Bush, while the level of spending was disappointing, it was managable. And conservatives DID criticise him, but they werent about to go marching on Washington tenfold when they felt he was good on certain other areas and they knew that the other party would be far worse. And they were proven right.
And Americans should be willing to put SOME SMALL amount of freedoms at risk ONLY when it comes to the most important function of government: security. Not economic things that the government shouldnt be involved in like healthcare - things that you are better able to manage yourself.
