88. No one's talking about the general populace here.
How much change has come about as a result of the popular outcry against the war? How much outcry was there before the war, even (which is what I have been talking about this whole time)? Who holds the real power over policy decisions?

The media was complacent in the war effort largely due to the mentality that we need to trust the hardened DC insiders, since they're smart and responsible pragmatists and all that neat stuff. Are you really going to attempt to argue otherwise?
