It is difficult to imagine how anyone could not celebrate the first free Iraqi election in over 50 years. Even France, which vehemently opposed the United States' liberation of Iraq, set its differences aside to praise the people of Iraq for their strength and bravery as they take this first step toward true freedom. However, there are people in this world who are not celebrating this great event. No, I am not talking about the usual folks we know oppose freedom not just in Iraq, but across the globe, such as North Korea's Kim Jung Il, Osama Bin Laden, and a few Nazis hiding in Argentina, but others who will attack the successful Iraqi election with the same hostility, distortion, and hatred for the truth as the tyrants above. And, they are as close as your computer. I am talking about the Internet's liberal bloggers.
Most Internet leftists are still seeking therapy helping them cope with President Bush's reelection victory, so another Bush Administration triumph, particularly one in association with the hated Iraq War, is all they need to free them from their already tenuous grasp on sanity. As of Sunday afternoon on January 30, 2005, the insanity had already reached a fever pitch.
The reactions of liberal loggers can be grouped into four categories. The first is the "Let's Talk About Something Else Posse." For example, "Black Eyed Sunday", ignored the election completely and chose to center their daily post around promoting the commemoration of the second anniversary of the Iraq War with a "global protest" calling for Bush's impeachment. One what grounds? Who knows, probably for the "high crime" of President Bush disagreeing with them.

Awesome Article!
Give it a week and John Kerry and Algore will have a bitch-slap fight over which one of them can take credit for the success of the Iraqi elections.
LOL! Great line.
This why DU is of little interest. The lefties are just stone cold nuts.
I tried to warn them the W'04 bumper stickers on the flying saucers would give everything away.
My favorite is democrats.com Right now they are hot on the Middle East rumor that the Iraqi voters were threatened with withholding of food rations if they didn't vote. Also they cannot trust any US news sources as they all work for President Bush. These guys are in pretty bad shape. You may want to log on and give your sympathy(or tell them Ramsey Clark is your hero.)
Here's my reporting and a few links for fun:

Enjoyed it...THANX...
Good article, and a good find by you. As Sean Hannity & Rush say all the time, this is a part of the new media.
Indeed. I do believe I'll start checking out some of these "blogs" on a regular basis to see the process of their heads exploding. Again, to paraphrase the radio guys, the American Liberals are at (or might well be beyond) the breaking point -- they've lost three national elections in three months.
I don't see anything there about food rations for votes, but I discuss that issue here:

In at least one case, this might have been just a rumor to get people to vote.
3006 was 'Food for Votes'. Necco the site monitor posted that.

Lately they are all in shock over Sunday. It is pushing them deeper and deeper down that dark hole of mental instability. killerbee1 seems to be a typical progressive, no connection to reality.
