After all car movements were prohibited, thousands of Iraqis make a trip on foot to the town of Al Alamara, Iraq (news - web sites), to place their votes Sunday, Jan. 30 2005. Iraqis turned out to vote Sunday in their country's first free election in a half-century, defying insurgents who launched deadly suicide bombings and mortar strikes at polling stations.

Fat Teddy and the MSM should crawl into the nearest corner and shut up.

"Let Freedom Reign!" - President George W. Bush

[nuconvert]

And they continue to "mouth" that they support our troops.

Wouldn't you hate to be a Dem now, sitting there and disgusted that people really did want this whole "voting" thing. Their DemParty is nearly entirely based on wishing ill-will to American policies abroad. Man they are idiots.

I'm profoundly grateful we have a President who said Enough is enough to the Dems, to the world, to the MSM! Let them cling to their delusions! We have better, stronger, visions.

I was moved to tears myself.

It was the lines of people, waiting to vote.
They know that they are targets and still they wait to vote.

Freedom is on the march!
