I have to laugh when I see Matthews all concerned about the Sunnis. A great point was made on a thread here yesterday: Would anyone give a damn if the (white) Afrikaners sat out the election in South Africa? No--in fact if someone had they'd have been called racists. Yet we're all so concerned with the Sunnis, who should feel lucky they're not all strung up by vengeance-minded countrymen.
all week Chrissy has been throwing out his stupid theories trying to get embeds or generals to agree with him and they all say the same thing....."you're wrong there Chris"....that is how they start their answer....he is humiliated every single day cause no one will back up his "america is wrong" thesis
The Sunnis are the tool the media and their democrat masters are going to use to delegitimize Sunday's election. The left has basically told the Sunnis, "Sit it out, boycott it, refuse to have anything to do with it, and refuse to recognize the winners as the legitimate Iraqi government. We'll do our part to ensure that the rest of the world sees the election as a sham."
Look for an avalanche of stories detailing problems with voting, allegations of fraud, Sunnis tearfully saying they tried to vote but were prevented from doing so by American troops and Shi'a gunmen, etc. The media and the democrats will pull out all stops to undermine the confidence of the Iraqis (and us) in the process. The way they see it, that's the only way they can take down George Bush over the Iraq war now.
