There WERE people in the streets in the run up to the Iraq war- millions of them, and I was one of them. It did no good. The only way people in the streets matter, is if politicians care what the people in the streets want. That was not the case with Bush. I don't know what Obama would do if confronted with the same large demonstrations. We haven't really had any that big yet.
