They ought to drag Saddam Hussein out to the largest voting site in Baghdad and chain him out front for all to see.

Very good suggestion!

That first picture in this group of the woman holding up the picture of President Bush, I hope the idiots in DU see this. If there is a DU lurker here, does this look like the Iraqi people think President Bush is a tyrant? The liberals in this country should have as much class as these precious people.

Isn't this grand! None of the "all show" Clinton era nonsense. President Bush is a man of conviction and action. God bless.

Ann Coulter made this statement once and I never forgot it: "In the democrats search for monsters, they have become the monsters themselves."

I hope and pray that the picture of the weeping 70 year old man is shown in every newspaper around the world and on every TV station, too. But I don't look for it and if it is, the liberals will just say he is weeping because we invaded his country.

He's just following in his father's footsteps. His father was an Ambassador during WWII and sided with Hitler. FDR was so mad, he recalled Kennedy and revoked his status as an Ambassador.

Looking at our own cities, our bleeding borders, millions entering our own country illegally, routinely, at will, big government spending, with deficits and govt spending now reaching out beyond the orbit of Jupiter, I would respectfully disagree.

Pictured here is Mehsin Imgoter, weeping after voting in Southgate, Michigan. His son was killed in the Shi'ite uprising against Saddam Hussein in 1991 and did not live to see a free Iraq. (Photo and description thanks to Hindrocket at Powerline blog.)

Thank you.

If this doesn't touch a person, they have no heart. That is so sad.
