Under Tight Security, Voting Seems Calm in Iraq - NYTimes.com

I wonder why the Democrat leadership isn't shouting this tremendous success from the steps of the capitol??  Isn't the blood of American soldiers and Iraqi alike worth a celebration of victory?  This lack of respect for what we and a country has accomplished makes me ashamed of our small minded citizens.

Good job troops!
