Iraqi Election Results Begin Pouring In!
Edited on Sun Jan-30-05 12:33 PM by DistressedAmerican
CNN is now prepared to call Al Anbar Province for Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

Looks like the Sunnis still hate use and will keep killing us and those we support while the Shiites will tolerate us for a while. As long as we keep propping them up they will keep dealing with the troops, for now. Well, depends on the final count for our old friend Muqtada Al Sadr!

The Kurds like to keep to themselves, again, for now. Although an independent homeland would be pretty nice. It is all a farce. Putting lipstick on the world's ugliest pig. The war continues unabated.

2. If They Have to Have an American Style Democracy

shoved down their throats, I thought it would be good to report the unbelievably predictable results in a manner Americans would understand.

Since the administration and press are portraying any vote as a vote FOR DEMOCRACY it looks like it is Bush vs. al-Zarqawi. We love the oversimplified election map. Red provinces for Bush Green for Zarqawi. I figured this would be a way of pointing out how simplistic that view is.

The whole exercise is a joke but, Bush and the media will call it a great success for our policies. Sickening.
