They don't need to....Jesse Jackson "spoke for them" last night, complaining that people weren't allowed to drive their cars to go voting, etc. It was disgusting what he was saying.

How close was Wisconsin in 2000?

2000: Gore "won" by 5,000 I think.

2004: Kerry "won" by 11,000

Of course, there are precincts in Milwaukee with supposed 99% turnout. And supposedly 85,000 (!) registered at the polls on election day. And the mayor (co chair of Kerry's campaign) w/ some "friends" and "members of the local painters union" spent the entire night before the election UNSUPERVISED in City Hall supposedly keying late arriving registrations into the voter system. I mean THE ENTIRE NIGHT....the mayor's appointed election supervisor said they were still at it when she went home at 2am. So: How do we know WHAT they were keying into that system?

I hope the FBI is going to find out.

I'm very interested in what percentage of women were elected. I heard, somewhere, that they might make up 30 percent of parliament.

Those people will be as relevant as those idiots who protested Reagan for standing up to the Soviets.

PRAISE GOD!

Freedom now reigns in Iraq!

Our courageous military has yet again acheived as much in just a few years as America achieved during the entire Revolutionary War!

How many MILLION have they freed? It's overwhelming to think about it and the implications. It's not just about VICTORY in Iraq, but a message of DEFEAT that chills the heart of every terrorist and tyrant on the planet!

I pray every soldier knows and is aware of the service they have done for ALL MANKIND!

God bless them and keep them safe!

Cars were not allowed anywhere near the polling places for fear of car bombs. They all had to walk. This only makes the turnout more impressive.

In case anyone missed it on thread 1.

Here is a note that was just posted on a `Raq blog;
~Greetings Friends,

I bow in respect and awe to the men and women of our people who, armed only with faith and hope are going to the polls under the very real threats of being blown to pieces.

These are the real braves; not the miserable creatures of hate who are attacking one of the noblest things that has ever happened to us.

Have you ever seen anything like this?

Iraq will be O.K. with so many brave people, it will certainly O.K.; I can say no more just now; I am just filled with pride and moved beyond words. People are turning up not only under the present threat to polling stations but also under future threats to themselves and their families; yet they are coming, and keep coming.

Behold the Iraqi people; now you know their true metal. We shall never forget the meanness of these bas…s. After this is over there will be no let up, they must be wiped out.

It is our duty and the duty of every decent human to make sure this vermin is no more and that no more innocent decent people are victimized.

My condolences to the Great American people for the tragic recent losses of soldiers. The blood of Iraqis and Americans is being shed on the soil of Mesopotamia; a baptism with blood. A baptism of a lasting friendship and alliance, for many years to come, through thick and thin, we shall never forget the brave soldiers fallen while defending our freedom and future.

This is a very hurried message, while we are witnessing something quite extraordinary. I myself have voted and so did members of my family. Thank Godfor giving us the chance.

Salaam for now,Alaa
