KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Nine out of 10 eligible Afghans have signed up for landmark October elections, the United Nations said Sunday, a resounding endorsement of a democratic experiment supposed to help Afghanistan turn its back on years of debilitating war.
Outstanding! 5 Legislative Days Left Until The AWB Expires
Looking forward to the hanging chad brouhaha. Can't we send Altoast2000 to monitor something?
Afghanistan is a quahgmire!
Oh its a terrible mess!
/sarcasm
Of course, it is and will be a Muslim State and they're still producing poppy up the kazoo! But it's a start and Karzai is impressive!! Glad we could help!! Remember Us For Our Goodness.
You're free!!
Do you have a link to the article where that picture came from?
Thanks. That picture says so much. These girls had nothing to look forward to and now they do.
I salute the Afghans, and I hope every red-blooded American does as well. This needs to get more press than it's getting. Maybe we need to have Karzai over again for a joint session of Congress, for him to tell them about the Afghan bravery, resolve and commitment to the Democratic process.

Yeah, really! Al is so committed to making sure every vote counts, he can go over there and monitor that.
Also send that representative that requested the U.N. to monitor our elections.
Duck, Al!! Incoming!
A member of the South Korean Po Hang team, Stephany Hwang, a 14-year-old swimmer, was happy about Bush's appearance.
"He's almost an international president. I'm really very excited," she said.
Saw that. It gave me chuckle.
p.s. (I didn't post the article itself, just the link. The FR automation prevented posting the article due to "copyright complaint")
Those pictures are awesome. They should be in a commercial come fall.
