• Well Iraqi elections took place today and it looks like they went off well.  There was a large turnout by the Sunnis, which was a big hope in the success of today’s elections.  Also reports say the overall turnout was at more than 70 percent. President Bush called it “a major step forward in acheiving our objective.”  So I guess this is a good step so the next step is the drafting of the constitution.  Anyway Joe Biden(D-Delaware) had an interesting  baseball reference when it comes to the Iraq War, he said some Democrats view this as being up in the bottom of the ninth inning with your three worst hitters coming up, but he viewed it as were in the bottom of the eight inning with your top three hitters coming up and he thought we had a 50/50 chance of making the Iraq War a success.  Well do you still think we can win this even with the apparent success of the Iraq elections?

  
  

  Also I heard in an interview by George Bush last night that if he knew there were no weapons of mass destruction that existed he still would of gone into Iraq. He believes in bringing freedom to the Iraqi people.  Also he said this of Donald Rumsfield, “He’s done a heck of a good job.”  Excuse me. I’m sorry he doesn’t even know how many of the Iraqi troops were getting trained.”  In interviews he seems to avoid answering certain questions. Good job, I don’t believe so. I also heard somewhere that John Kerry called for the impeachement of George Bush because of bad intelligence and sending the troops into the Iraq War for it. Anyway I hope I’m not boring everyone with all this political talk during the Christmas season, because everyone seems to be taking a break from exams and work and stuff and the last thing you probably want to hear is politics. I bet everyone is doing your Christmas shopping now and spending time with your family, anyway chat with you later.
