Jim Maceda on MSNBC is claiming Iraqis in Ramadi asked the Marines if they could sneak in the back door of the polling station...so no one would see them.

Amazing spin.

I can't believe they are talking about the massive number of attacks. There were fewer than normal, at least as I know it but I could be wrong.

LOL! We've an hour left and the Left is terminally depressed. Its a beautiful Sunday - a day on which America is basking in the satisfaction of terrific news!

The CNN reporterette was asking a voter if he wasn't afraid the ink on his finger would identify him to the "insurgents". He said no, and called them "terrorists".

She sounded like she was almost in tears.

Stay safe!

Its 8am...America is waking up... so its time for the media to start spinning the election as a failure.

Either way, freedom wins. If they talk about the massive number of attacks, that just shows the courage of the average Iraqi in coming forward to vote for democracy. They are stuck in "spin lock", although I'm sure they will be complaining about something soon enough.

Doesn't that Iraqi know they are "freedom fighters"? CNN must be having an awful day.

We knew they would do that. Luckily no one watches MSNBC.

Note to CNN: The terrorists may have used a person with Down's Syndrome to act as a homicide bomber and you're still referring to them as insurgents? Well, everyone else knows what these butchers are even if you all refuse to call a spade a spade.

Amazing spin.



Of course Maceda probably didn't stress the miraculous intent of the voter- that he was willing to do ANYTHING to cast his ballot. MSM is in full meltdown- this is a very bad day for them. Gotta love it!

Massive number?? If it were a bloodbath, rest assured they'd be blaring it on TV. They have to find a speck of bad news and even that speck of bad news can't hide the truth this election has gone off really well and polls close in an hour! Not much time left for the insurgent terrorists/jihadis to perpetrate a massive bloodbath. This is a day people will long remember.

Chrtianne Amanpour just reported that insurgents were using an ambulance to drive around an throw out grenades. People on their way to the polls surrounded the ambulance, grabbed the the occupants, and turned them over to authorities!

Ir-ROCK-is!
