... in our demand for it to stop, especially from the Left, since Obama a) promised us (supporters) he'd end the practice; and b) Obama seems to be only scaling it up.

And now's the time, since the Bush-apologists who defended it when W was doing it, are obviously now opposed to it since Obama is president. So the only thing getting in the way of huge and united voter backlash is our side: liberals, who are Obama-apologists.

The Pols run for cover in a heartbeat when we're united and outraged. Consider how long moneyed interests on Wall Street have had woodies for getting their hands on the SS cash flow, and pouring big bux into lobbying for it. But when any in DC suggest SS-privatization, the backlash is immediate and overwhelming. Also the Internet Privacy thing, that big money tried to push through. But the voter backlash sent them running for cover at light speed.

Same on this. If we care about our rights, we have to get pissed off, royally, when they're taken away, regardless of who is in the White House.
