I entered the school and the supervisors showed me the way to were I should vote. They and the ING guys were so polite and gentle. I cast my vote and got out, not in a rush at all. This is my Eid and I felt like a king walking in his own kingdom. I saw the same look of confidence and satisfaction in the eyes of all people I met. As I left one of the gurads said to me as he handed me back my cellular phone,"God bless you and your beloved ones. We don't know how to thank you. Please excuse any inconvinience on our part. We wish we didn't have to search you or limit your freedom. You are heroes" I was struck with surprise and felt ashamed. This man was risking his life all these hours in what has become the utmost target for all terrorists in Iraq and yet he's apologizing and calling us heroes. I thanked him back and told him that he and his comrads are the true heroes and that we can never be grateful enough for their services.

Living up to one's namesake I see?
How odd it must feel for most of these people. Saddam ruled that nation for so long that probably 50% or more of the populace never knew what it was like in the first place to cast a vote where the outcome wasn't necessarily pre-defined. Now I know you naysayers will come in and tear apart what I just said, but it's true in more ways than one. So keep your snide remarks and your negative demeanor to yourself.
Oh yeah. Who will be the first asshat to come in here and say that this Iraqi blogger is a US Government plant trying to paint a picture that the Bush administration wishes us to see? It won't be much longer now, you wait.

Well, suggesting that this blogger works for the US Government would seem paranoid. However, that passage was just... a little too... perfect. It sounded straight out of a movie (a poorly written melodramatic movie), and it's a little hard to take it seriously.
