Uncivil Rights
A BLOG rife with wit, sarcasm, and the endless joy which comes from taunting the socialistic and unpatriotic liberal left. Logical thoughts and musings ONLY need reply...unless you're really, really funny. You have the Uncivil Right to be an IDIOT.

Iraqi Democracy
It is becoming clear Iraqi turnout will be high in this historic election. However, naysayers, mostly liberal-socialists will do their best to downplay the success of freedom and democracy.
From this linked article, "But Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites), D-Mass., sounded a note of caution in an interview on NBC's "Meet The Press."
"It is hard to say that something is legitimate when whole portions of the country can't vote and doesn't vote," Kerry said. "
This statement is indicative of the left's belief in democracy, which is: if EVERYONE doesn't vote then the election is not legitimate. They keep talking about disenfranchisement amongst our voters just because some don't vote. Saddam had 100% voter turnout. Does that mean his elections were legitimate? The fact is, in a democracy, people have as much right to vote as they do to abstain from voting. That is their ultimate right in a democracy. And people that exercise their right NOT to vote should not be chastised or called DISENFRANCHISED. They are exercising their rights.
Do not feel sorry for the Sunnis if they do not have a high voter turnout. People reap what they sow. By refusing to stand up to these terrorists, by refusing to aid the American military in the elimination of these terrorsits, by refusing to condemn the actions of these terrorists around the world as well as in Iraq, the Sunnis have brought this upon themselves. The Sunnis have allowed the terrorists to flourish and fostered their cause.
After the election, when the Sunnis have representation relative to their voter turnout, they will soon learn that for needed and wanted changes to occur, they must participate in the democratic processes. It will be a lesson learned.
