I Know, I Know-- It's a Darn Shame President Bush Had His Golden Iraq Election Story Hijacked by this Illegal Spying Story

First, let us pause a moment to castigate the incredible liberal bias of the NY Times, who were traitors to the country for reporting the spying story.

But onto Iraq and its elections.

I have noticed that few if any liberal blogs have commented on the historic Iraq elections-- and that is just WRONG, since we spent so much effort establishing these elections, at least 2200 US dead, at least 17,000 US wounded and over 200,000,000,000 dollars (and at least 30,000 Iraqi dead-- but who is counting?).

The point is, we PAID for these elections DAMMIT, and we don't want it spoiled by treasonous liberals like the NYTimes.

I do wonder though-- what if we had just tried to coerce Saddam Hussein into holding fair elections? Maybe even insert election monitors into Iraq under threat of force. Perhaps we could have even paid the Iraqi government several billion dollars for this effort. I just wonder-- if we really wanted to bring democracy and elections to Iraq, why didn't we even TRY diplomacy? Wasn't it worth the effort? We could have possibly saved a lot of lives and a lot of money.

Nonetheless, elections in Iraq are a good thing, as far as it goes.

But one thing I can predict confidently: these elections won't stop Iraqis from killing US soldiers. That won't end until we leave.
