Remember that the French have historically emphasized "Le Resistance" over the Americans who actually liberated the place.

Thanks Howlin....
Just had a thought....SO much was made when the election began last night in Iraq, that the woman's lines were much longer than the men's. With all of SH executions there are probably a lot more women than men...Since fathers, husbands, brothers, sons were executed, the women have nothing more to lose and an awful lot to gain by voting.

OK how many hours before the MSM starts calling the election a farce or a fraud?

I say by the noon tommorrow CNN and company will have started with "irregularity" stories.

The msm did their best not to make a big deal over Iraqis signing their constitution. Wasn't even a lead story.

They ignored the great out come of the Afghan election also

I want someone on TV to ask these liberals when then become against Freedom and Democracy?

"With all of SH executions there are probably a lot more women than men"

That's one factor.
The other is the war Saddam declared on Iran. In its 8 yrs, it devastated the male populations in both countries.

When I saw people walking down the street carrying their child or holding their hands as they walked to vote, I thought: These are not parents who would strap a bomb to a child's chest. They value life and want a better life for their children. Maybe I'm wrong, but as my tag line indicates. I believe today is a new dawning for the people of Iraq.

Yep at the rate Kerry, Jennings etal are ranting today, soon there will be an American expression "dumb as a Democrat." Of course like a "pig in a poke" where no one knows a "poke" is a bag or sack, no one will know what a Democrat was and the US's two parties will be the GOP and they Left/Labor party.

Thanks, Howlin!

This is the same blogger who referred to President Bush as the "Avenger of the Bones".

The Mesopotamian - Friday, November 28, 2003  (Scroll down to AHLAN WA SAHLAN; GWB)

~snip~Yes GWB, though the visit was brief, it was very meaningful. We know that you have come, not as the President of an invading nation, but as the friend who wishes to renew commitment to our people, and as long as your intentions are what you have repeatedly said (and we don't doubt your sincerity), the land and the hearts welcome you.

It gives us pain that the visit is so short and that the masses cannot in the present circumstances come out to give you the welcome that you deserve, but the day will come, the day will come (God's Willing). Yes the day will come when the millions will come out to welcome the best friend that the Mesopotamian people have ever had, and he will be amongst the most devoted and allied people that America will ever have.

The bones in the mass graves salute you, Avenger of the Bones.

Hail, Friend and Ally, Hail, Sheikh of Sheikhs, GWB; Descendant of the Noble Ancient Celt.

I haven't watched that pof since his disgusting behavior on 9/11 coverage. He is a nastier human being with more poison in him than Gunga Dan.
