This is a terrible, dark, tragic day...

Excerpt:

All the media keeps talking about is how happy the Iraqis are, how high turnout was, and how "freedom" has spread to Iraq. I had to turn off CNN because they kept focusing on the so-called "voters" and barely mentioned the resistance movements at all. Where are the freedom fighters today? Are their voices silenced because some American puppets cast a few ballots?

I say:

Want a shoulder to cry on, ShinerTX? Look elsewhere.

How fashions change. The "freedom fighters" are so yesterday. The *real* freedom fighters are the in thing.

At least most idiotarians have the presence of mind to try desperately to [link|http://www.balloon-juice.com/archives/004702.html|pretend they're not impressed]. This turd can't even manange a sour grapes reaction. He just vents.

Oh, and here's some more [link|http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/manchester/4220437.stm|unhappy freedom haters] in jolly old England.

Excerpt:

The demonstrators were from Hizb-ut-Tahrir - an Islamic group which is against the elections in Iraq.

David Kahrmann, from the Iraq Election Team, said the protesters "were not even Iraqis". "The Iraqi community here were saying, 'Why are these people who are not even from Iraq protesting against these elections?'," he said.

Dr Abdul Wahid, of Hizb-ut-Tahrir, said his demonstrators had begun walking away from the scene after election organisers said they were worried their presence could prove trouble.

He said: "The local Iraqis came out and got very agitated. We walked away, but a small group started chasing us."

I say:

Cowards. Say, it's nice of BBC news to report this, as if they'd never lied and spun everything about Iraq all these years. I remember their glum faces when mean old Uncle Sam first went in to take out sweet gentle Uncle Saddam.
