It is now 3 am in Iraq the polls will be opening in the next few hours as the world watches and hold's it breath. Iraq is about to undertake a historic vote.

Lets wish them well....... please post all comments and election photos to this thread.

That Meet the Press is having the losing presidential candidate for a full hour tomorrow, of all days, is such an insult to our soldiers and to the Iraqi people.

I wonder and wonder what the point is. Kerry's position on Viet Nam was one that led to the death of millions, he was opposed to Reagan's decisions that led to the end of the Cold War, he opposed the first Gulf War and he is not supportive of what is going on in Iraq today. The man has been on the wrong side of every major historical event in his adult life, what qualifies him for airtime on a historical day?

I hope all the Lib media..... eats Sh*t when this comes out way better then expected.

And I also hope that the ratings show that the alphabet channels have lost even more viewership with those watching the Iraqi elections tuning into Fox today/tomorrow.

I kist walked the short distancs from my living quarters to my office about ten minutes ago. The sun is not quite up yet. The polls will open in about 15 minutss and it is quiet out there for now, except for the sounds of helicopters and the occasional fighter planes doing air coverage.

Go vote, Itaqis. Go taste freedom and defy the cowardly terrorists.

Is Bush going to have a press conf? Address the nation over this?

Probably. He's stayed at the WH this weekend to monitor the elections, so stay tuned ;-)

CNN called the Iraqi elections a farce?? Did they really?

[NorCalRepub]

The next time I go home to see my parents I am going to look this man up and give him a hug.

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.)

God bless our troops and our allies. May the terrorists feel the wrath of God today-starting in about 10 mins.

Hello Allegra thanks so much for the report!

Ted Kennedy reminds me of those Scottish nobles who betrayed Wallace.

Keep us posted as to what you see there!!!

If it were not such an important moment in history, I could not stomach listening to Geraldo--but he did worm himself into a real historical event. So am keeping him on--and will NOT go to anything that has NBC or MSNBC in it. Brian William's report tonight was SO negative--really ticked me off--and then there's Kerry on Russert.

It is daylight in Iraq--even Geraldo waxed poetic by saying "a new day has dawned". God bless our troops and the Iraqis who love freedom enough to go out to vote!

Every Kerry vote is a vote for ignorance......I'd rail against him even further if I didn't have my hands full with the likes of Bahgdad Boxer in my state
