Reply #230: The point is, it isn't their system [View All]

The election is a product of an invasion and occupation. It is open to rampant cheating, and there will be rampant cheating, or more accurately already has been rampant cheating. Bush didn't go to all this trouble in order to let the process be dictated by the free will of Iraqis. He has lied about everything else, so this too is a lie. If you want to believe in fairy tales, that's your right, though.

This fairy tale has cost 1500 American dead, 20000 American wounded, and over 200 billion dollars. Also, tens of thousands of Iraq dead, and many times that many wounded. And British, and others. And the credibility of the U.S. around the world. No half baked election will bring any of that back.
