Last Sunday Iraq held new elections. There was no violence so it’s doubtful you heard much about the way they went. Things went too smoothly for our phony media to be bothered reporting this story.

The Iraq battle in the war on terror has been won.

The drive by media totally ignore this fact.

osamaobama will be given the credit for victory after Bush has been out of office for 8-9 months and no mention of this election will be found.

The drive byes wonder why they are losing their shirts.
