- - - BAGHDAD - Iraq's provincial elections have wrapped up without any reports of serious violence. Polls closed at 6 p.m. (10 a.m. EST) on Saturday - an hour later than planned - after millions of voters cast ballots for influential regional councils around most of Iraq. There were no reports of major violence. Iraqi authorities imposed a huge security operation around the country that included traffic bans in major cities and extensive checkpoints and surveillance posts. The U.S. military also was out in force but did not take a direct role in the election security. - - - Damn that George Bush for the immoral, doomed, failed, and strategically disastrous ousting of Saddam Hussein and the obviously ineffective surge policy. We lost. We suck. The world hates us. How dare we give the oppressed suffrage, it's not like we meant what JFK said about bearing any burden for democracy. I mean, the Iraq war cost over five years almost half of what the bailouts plus the stimulus bill will cost us in just a few months and the stroke of our new immaculate Glorious Leader's pen. The irresponsibility of it all! </sarcasm> - Bob _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/00f101c983cd$889acaf0$99d060...@rr.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
