FOXNews.com brings us this GOOD NEWS and it starts off like this...
Polls closed at 6 p.m. (10 a.m. EST) on Saturday - an hour later than planned - after millions of voters cast ballots for influential regional councils around most of Iraq. There were no reports of major violence... Iraqi authorities imposed a huge security operation around the country that included traffic bans in major cities and extensive checkpoints and surveillance posts. The U.S. military also was out in force but did not take a direct role in the election security... Results from the elections are not expected before Tuesday...

You would think this would be FrontPage News but I just left the CNN, MSNBC, ABC, and CBS websites, (Saturday morning- 9:30am CST) and had to HUNT down any story on Iraq and today’s elections.

Talking about turning the page without a single THANK YOU sent out to the Troops and their leaders who made this all possible!

I HATE the MSM...

GREAT JOB U.S. Military...
And the NEW/FREE Iraqi People!!!
