I was watching C-SPAN today and they had great coverage. Lots of Iraqi guests and callers. They were all so excited. They were crying to have been able to decide their countries future.
Truly a great day for Iraq.
An interesting quote from one of the moderators was that 'Now the insurgents are not fighting the occupiers, they are fighting against democracy.'
I was moved to tears. It was amazing to watch people experience democracy for the first time. However it turns out, today was an amazing first step.
