What Happened to the Antiwar Movement?

Byron York goes looking for it, without success. Now that George Bush is no longer President, opposing the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan has dropped to dead last on the priorities of American leftists, like those who gathered for “netroots nation” last week. It is telling that only a few cranks, like Cindy Sheehan, haven’t gotten the message that, now that Barack Obama is President, war is OK. We can all ponder, I guess, what this tells us about the Left.
