Dick Sears: A Great Day in Iraq

Some 60% of the Iraqi electorate risked their lives for freedom, democracy and self-rule. For me there are two obvious conclusions to be drawn:

1. GWB is one of our great Presidents. With vision, principle, and persistence, ignoring opinion polls and doing what he believed right, he has created two democracies in the Arab world. More will surely follow, and Americans are safer today because of it.

2. The MSM (mainstream media) gave us a false picture of what was going on in Iraq. They showed us only the imperfections and ignored the real story. Iraqis have proven today that they want and are ready for democracy. The MSM should be ashamed of itself.
