After months of criticism of President Bush’s policy, gloomy press coverage that seemed to focus almost entirely on car bombs, and near panic on the part of some Congressional Democrats, we now have a useful barometer to assess the real state of affairs in Iraq - Thursday’s historic and enormously successful parliamentary elections.

The third national plebiscite vote in just two years since Iraq’s liberation from Saddam Hussein was largely free of violence and saw a turnout rate higher than most western nations’. Millions of Iraqis who proudly dipped their fingers in purple ink, enjoying the democracy that our troops and their own have sacrificed so much to build, provided what the Wall Street Journal rightly described as “the most eloquent rebuttal to American defeatists.”

Great post, Coastal.

I thought it was good to see a Senator standing up for a change.

I really like Kyl.

Hey Zarqawi:


SCOREBOARD

[Viking2002]

Amen, broham. I like to see guys like Kyl and Tancredo get emboldened enough to hoist their colors. They help to clear the air of the stench that vapid, Marxist media whores like Pelosi and Kennedy leave in our nostrils.

Upon reading the heading I thought it was a football score. LOL!

Still is a good score.

Speaking of football, anybody knows if Iraq made it to the World Cup?
