THE SILENCE OF THE NAYSAYERS:

Skeptics of President Bush’s attempt to bring democracy to Iraq have been largely silent since Iraqis enthusiastically turned out for Sunday’s elections.

Billionaire Bush-basher George Soros and left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore were among critics of the administration’s Iraq policy who had no comment after millions of Iraqis went to the polls in their nation’s first free elections in decades.

Heh. (Via the Democracy Project).

UPDATE: On the other hand, here’s news from Fallujah.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Ouch. Now that’s gotta hurt.
