Not about admitting to being "wrong" because I believe that you believe in freedom as much as I. Even though we have not always agreed on how this should come about. I am happy to know that somebody with "left leanings" has unqualified happiness for this day with us and the Iraqis. It was a magnificent display of human courage and joy, wasn't it?<br /><br />I am choked up because you said that I helped you see it. <br /><br />I love getting compliments from those that usually agree with me, but I consider your compliment to be the penultimate of compliments. Thank you and I hope to do it again one day. :)Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05208095650375780838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152221.post-1107230086550009992005-01-31T21:54:00.000-06:002005-01-31T21:54:00.000-06:00Wonderful post, Kat.

Great analogy. <br /><br />I, too, stayed up to watch the election coverage (on Fox News, of course) and I was elated to see it when the people of Iraq showed their bravery and came out to vote. It was truly a beautiful sight! <br /><br />The number of "bad guys/bad actors" that we have in our Congress is apalling. But what is worse are those who continue to vote to keep them in office year after year, simply because they wield power due to the number of years that they have been feeding at the trough. It goes to prove that a lot of Americans care more about what they can get than whether or not their Senator or Representative truly cares about his constituents. The Dems say that they care so much for "the little people" when in fact what they really care more about is money and power. <br /><br />As was said earlier by another, you just keep on hitting that nail squarely on the head and we'll keep coming hear to be enlightened!Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01324439047017058940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7152221.post-1107198000854539892005-01-31T13:00:00.000-06:002005-01-31T13:00:00.000-06:00Awesome post.

After staying up all night to witness the election process, I call my father, who is so far to the left, that I wonder how we are related, to express my joy at the response by the Iraqis and their courage to risks their lives to secure the future of democracy in Iraq, and what does he say, you guessed it, "that's too bad, I hoped it wouldn't have worked, so we could pull out sooner". I couldn't believe it. Next he went into comparing it to Vietnam. I could only sigh. When will they ever learn? One of the most incredible victories for Democracy in my lifetime, and all he can say is "too bad". Never was it more clear to me why the democrats lost the election, than when I heard his response. This was an incredible victory for all Iraqis everywhere, as well as everyone that stood behind President Bush, and returned him to the White House to continue the worthy job of helping Iraq join the family of free democratic nations. My heart was filled with pride watching all the people of Iraq show they would no longer be intimidated, and that today, Iraq belongs to them.DCRockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407535131696528898noreply@blogger.com
