Not that I really give a sh*t what the U.N says, but since Libs love it every time they open their pie-hole, what are they going to say now?

U.N. envoy: Iraq elections a 'success'

Still, election officials look into scores of voting complaints

Friday, December 16, 2005; Posted: 12:41 p.m. EST (17:41 GMT)

Programming Note: CNN's Anderson Cooper will report live from Iraq this week on the country's historic election. His reports will air at 10 p.m. ET (0300 GMT).

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- As election officials in Iraq counted ballots and looked into polling violation complaints Friday, the senior U.N. envoy there said Iraq upheld proper international election standards.

"Anecdotal evidence shows that there has been a good turnout, that it was inclusive and that security was well maintained," said Ashraf Qazi, U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan's special representative. "These are all good measures of success."

His comments were released in a U.N. statement.

Final results from Thursday's historic election likely won't be available for "two weeks or more," said Farid Ayar, spokesman for the Independent Electoral Commission of Iraq.

An official with the electoral commission said Friday that 12 of the nation's 6,246 polling centers did not open on election day because of security concerns.

The official said they were located in restive Anbar province, where Sunnis are dominant.

And the libs say thats great, because the sooner they get their own government, the sooner Bush can get his fingers out of there and the sooner a lot of tired soldiers can come back home alive.
Ofcourse it'll leave behind a lot of Halliburton's that will play proxies to US interests, but its still better sooner, so maybe Murtha will get his wish a.s.a.p

Bush steal election in Iraq. John Kerry the real winner.

70% voter turnout: Bush Administration fools 11 Million Iraqis into electing illegitimate government.


Saddam Hussein wrongfully arrested, may face immoral and illegal death penalty. Vigil to spare his life expected soon.

Stock market near record high, unemployment near record low, gas prices falling, women and minorities make all-time records in income growth and home ownership. Damn.

I personally believe the the reconstruction of Iraq is going fairly well, comparitively to what it could have been. I still don't agree with the reasons of why we went into Iraq in the first place, but as long as we are there, we might as well fix a few things.

Expected.

You're tactics of debate seem to be getting better and better each day.

Not to mention more minimalistic.

Why don't you just keep each post as a default, pre-programmed entry:

"I don't care."

"I don't give a sh*t "

"I don't give a rat's a**"

Laughing Applause Mr. Green

Hey, so all of you sane and really smart people who are so angry about being tricked into going into Iraq and freeing all the people and all that and not finding any WMDs, what would you have preferred? Do you think that we would not have to go in eventually anyway? Did you think that Sadam would not eventually produce, buy, sell, WMDs? I for one am glad we stumbled upon a president willing to sacrifice now for latter and get it done early. Better 2,000 brave soles than 200,000.

We....

would have preferred...Being told the truth [ after all it what a Citizen expects in a Democracy ]


would have preferred...being show evidence to justify a War that has killed thousands of our soldiers.


would have preferred...to take the world into confidence, for upto this time in History America was seen, despite Vietnam and numerous proxy-wars, as a liberator not an invader.


would have preferred...to be told that we were going to Iraq because we wanted to change the regime ( although ofcourse Bush knew we'd all shout and oppose ) rather than be given wrong information about non-existant weapons.

would have preferred...the President to not abuse his powers in office.


Anything else?

Yeh, a couple.

I bet Bush would have preferred to have better intelligence, but when your spies are telling you this crazy guy that has spoken out against your allied and “reimbursed” the families of Palestinian “suiciders”, has or will soon have “nuclir” back-packs, and one of your cities just sustained an unprecedented attack, you really get a get-it-done attitude.

But back to my original question. Do you think we would have just been dandy? Never having to deal with Sadam? Would you rather wait until there where WMD’s?

And don’t sit there in front of your comfy little key board and call the US invaders. The US has bleed hundreds of thousands of its children on foreign soil and not for its own immediate sake. As the world power it has an obligation. I don’t see a US empire growing up around us.

Regardless, the fact is there will never be another war supported by the populous as long as there is TV coverage. Its easy to say freedom don’t come free when you don’t see the money cross the table. However, there are aggressors and it is our leaders responsibility to protect us. Even if we do complain about it.

Anything else?

Oh? Why wait? Is that the question? Why didn't the Republican establishments ( which I'm sure you hold in high esteem ) or for that matter the Liberal establishments through the years get rid of Saddam when he was clearly in posession of Weapons, when he was clearly carrying out the Genocide of the Kurds in the North using VX Nerve Gas?

Why did you sell Saddam VX Nerve Agents?

First you sell him weapons, then go after him, causing thousands of Civillian casualties.

And don’t sit there in front of your comfy little key board and act like you can speak for The Brave American Soldiers and their families. Don't sit there warming your legs and acting as a spokes-person.Because I certainly don't speak for them when they're already out there trying to make their voices heard:

And that's not liberal news media, that's soldier's and their families sitting not-so-comfy infront of their keyboards speaking to you.

Anything else?

Freedom certainly don't come free.
Infact it seems to come with millions of dollars of kick-backs.
As my father himself works closely with companies such as Halliburton and the Bec-tel, I assure you, the oil industry is very,very generous. And surprisingly, they had begun preparations before the War began, which I find a bit strange to say the least.
