Democracy Bush Style!

Is the Bush Administration Serious?

This week the Bush Administration and the Right Wing Talking Heads have been spending their time explaining to all of us how important the elections are in Iraq. They are preparing for the "success" of the elections and it appears that no matter what happens they will claim "mission accomplished."

A few of the interesting points to listen for:

1. The election will go smoothly in 14 of Iraq’s 18 provinces. Only 4 of the provinces will experience violence and problems. Only 4 provinces... this will be stressed repeatedly.

Wow! Only 4 provinces with problems! We really have got the country under control, don’t we! Yeah for America! They will conveniently omit the fact that 50% of the people in Iraq live in those 4 provinces. Misinformation at it’s finest.

2. Democracy will prevail in Iraq and people will be able to vote freely for the first time in 40 years.

First time in 40 years! Wow! Man those American’s are good people. Just think, you can vote freely for the first time in 40 years! (Well, those 50% of you who live in a "safe" area.)

However, one point they seem to gloss over and almost never mention is that most of the candidates names will not be listed on the ballot and as of three days before the elections the polling places have still not been identified.

Let’s see… I’m an Iraqi and I live in a "safe" area…. I’m going to vote for ______ and I’m going to vote on SUNDAY and I’m going to vote at ________.

Remember folks! This is going to be a success!

Democracy Bush Style!
