Iraq Election

A new day is about to dawn in Iraq as election day begins. I listened on Friday afternoon as Hugh Hewitt interviewed those voting in the Iraq election in California. Those stories and feelings that were being expressed were very powerful, and they shed light on how important our work there has been. For months, we have heard how these elections will not be legitimate if the violence is not quelled throughout Iraq. I would remind all of those who seem to fixate on the legitimacy of elections here in the U.S. and abroad, that the people who want a peaceful and fair Iraq are the same brave men and women who will be at the polls on Sunday. May they stay safe and triumph as they take the first step in taking back their country from the terrorists, thugs and Saddam wannabes.
