U.S. Lowers Expectations On Iraq Vote |
U.S. Lowers Expectations On Iraq Vote
Process Emphasized, Not Turnout or Results
By Robin Wright and Jim VandeHei
Washington Post Staff Writers
Thursday, January 13, 2005
With just over two weeks until the Iraqi elections, the United States is
lowering its expectations for both the turnout and the results of the vote,
increasingly emphasizing other steps over the next year as more important to
Iraq's political transformation, according to U.S. officials.
The Bush administration played down voter turnout yesterday in determining
the elections' legitimacy and urged Americans not to get bogged in a numbers
game in judging the balloting, a reflection of the growing concern over how
much the escalating insurgency and the problem of Sunni participation may
affect the vote.

Despite the whitewash, we now know that the Bush administration was warned
before the war that its Iraq claims were weak

The greater the leader, the greater the follower. Personalities who as
individuals are particularly narcissistic are the most qualified to fit this
function. The narcissism of the leader who is convinced of his greatness,
and who has no doubts, is precisely what attracts the narcissism of those
who submit to him. The half-insane leader is often the most successful one
until his lack of objective judgment, his rage reactions in consequence of
any set-back, his need to keep his image of omnipotence may provoke him to
make mistakes which lead to his destruction. But there are always gifted
half-psychotics at hand to satisfy the demands of a narcissistic mass.

You are an ignorant ***** that would not even know what a computer is if it
weren't for the USA. so go back in your hole, hug a tree and pick the fleas
off your ***** while you contemplate how to force your world view on the rest
of us. You must be a member of that peace loving religion of exclusion that
can only find hate for all that see it's flaws. I'm not a Jew and I don't
work for a weapons manufacturer, so you are welcome to waste your fucking
time with all your ***** rhetoric.

everybody and anybody does it.
You must be a member of that peace
loving religion of exclusion that can only find hate for all that see
it's flaws. I'm not a Jew
Who gives a *****?
and I don't work for a weapons manufacturer,
Who gives a *****?
so you are welcome to waste your fucking time with all your *****
rhetoric.
You're welcome to make a post yourself....not by me
but by the fact that it isn't a monitored NG.

Oh, I see, the US is the only nation in the world with computers.
so go back in your hole, hug a tree and pick the fleas off your ***** while
you contemplate how to force your world view on the rest of us.
How am I forcing my world view on you and who is the rest of us?
You must be a member of that peace loving religion of exclusion that can
only find hate for all that see it's flaws.
And that would mean?
I'm not a Jew and I don't work for a weapons manufacturer, so you are
welcome to waste your fucking time with all your ***** rhetoric.
And what does this have to do with the subject of the post?
