Thank you for posting P.M. Maliki's speech.
It was a darn good one too. The idiots who protested by not attending are just that -- idiots.
Mr. Speaker, we are building the new Iraq on the foundation of democracy, and are erecting it through our belief in the rights of every individual, just as Saddam has destroyed it through his abuse of all those rights, so that future Iraqi generations can live in peace, prosperity and hope. Iraqis have tasted freedom, and we will defend it absolutely. (Applause.)
Yep, the libs in this country want to abuse our freedom, and at the same time deny others from having it!
