Another "Jihad This" expression to the goons. So far whatever al Zarqawi's done hasn't kept people home. That "infidel democracy" is taking root in Iraq. What a setback for the self-styled Emir Of Baghdad - and you what's really insulting to the jihadists about this picture? The young woman isn't even wearing a burqa and covering up her face. ITS WOOOOOOOOOOOOR! HAHAHAHAHA

I tell ya..Shep just hit a homerun..he was reporting all the positive voting all over Iraq! He has blown the other cable networks away with his report!!!

And the Left is on their side. It is just sickening.

That they hooked that kid up with a bomb and made him do that is just pure evil. And the Western Left wants them to win. I will never vote Democrat as long as I live.

I think he is crazier than Saddam Hussein.

Awesome!

Confess I am still up. I'm going to pay for it throughout the day. LOL Cannot turn away from watching these people put their mark on their right to Liberty no matter the personal threat they face.

I have so much admiration for them. Our troops and coalition forces, their families, Iraqi forces, Our President and our strong world allies, and especially the Iraqi people have done something truly remarkable. I am just joyful and humbled to play a small role in support from the safety of my home.

Beautiful picture!

[faithincowboys]

That's great, but Shep is a jerk.

[Pikamax]

It's just killing the media this is not a flop, it will be really hard to spin this without being called on it.

[rwfromkansas]

So far.....a few spotty attacks.

But, it is EARLY.

[SheWolf]

You know what's even cooler?... that so many FReepers are up this late watching the fledgling democracy in Iraq that our troops brought to pass... Who would have thought this possible 2 years ago?! I love Conservatives! We RULE! Oh, and of course, democracy in IRAQ RULES!!!

A Down's syndrome child was forced into suicide bombing? That is just beyond despicable. May he find peace in God's gentle hands now...

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Shep gave a great report with perspective!

Looks like the Iraqis took the advice of this guy:

I thought I heard he killed himself.

I am kind of glad he is alive though....I feel kind of sorry for the patsies in the regime.

Its already an hour to noon in Baghdad. There are several more hours of voting to go before the polls finally close.
