Michelle Malkin had a reader write in with a very good question,
Why don’t we see the human shields at the polls in Iraq? They were willing to protect Iraq from bombs before the war started. Why aren’t they protecting Iraq now?
Sadly, as was exposed here I think we can all answer that question ourselves.
Not as they do.
JimK at Right Thoughts listened to Al Franken on Air America during the Nick Coleman/Powerline segment.
Here’s some of his take,
Al Franken is a complete ass
I just listed to Hindrocket from Powerline�s appearance on Air America. First of all, they had that Coleman jagoff on for ten minutes detailing his beefs with Powerline and lying his ass off as to how this feud came to be. Then Al says he wants to give Hindrocket equal time to address the issue.
Lo and behold, when John gets on, Al doesn�t let him talk about Coleman at all, proceeds to read from a post on Powerline from 2003 that John didn�t even write, and then thanks Hindrocket for his time and *poof* it�s over.
Head on over and hook up to the MP3 of the ‘interview’.

But John Kerry is a “fucking prat.”:http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=514&e=2&u=/ap/20050130/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_iraq
bq. _*”It is hard to say that something is legitimate when whole portions of the country can’t vote and doesn’t vote,” Kerry said.*_
72% voter turnout, people risking their lives to vote, but somehow that’s illegitimate. Can you imagine if this moron were our “leader” at this critical point in history?
bq. _*It�s a cliche, but it�s true: freedom is not free, and its cost is not measured in dollars but in blood. That blood has been shed by both Americans and Iraqis in pursuit of a dream of liberty and self-determination that you on the Left would deny them even now. You are not serious in your protestations of concern for the Iraqi people. You are dead wrong, and you do not deserve to be taken seriously.*_

People like Rose went out and faced real danger to have a chance to vote. No pansey-assed whining about disenfranchisement – just a steely determination to not waste the opportunity they had been given.
And to Michael Moore, Ted Kennedy, and the rest – all I can offer is this:

I’m sure all of these happy people voting are just, you know, CIA plants, right?
