Elections in Iraq...What about the US?

I don't know if ironic is a strong enough word, but the media and our current administration says were over in Iraq and Afghanistan to liberate each nation so they can have elections and become a democracy just like the U.S.

On the other hand only about half of the registered voters vote in this country.

Doesn't that seem a little strange and pathetic to some people.

We're spending billions of dollars to give Iraqis the right to vote yet we can't even get up off our asses in this country to vote.

Oh Good Grief!

P.S. If you're not registered, it's not too late (in some parts of the country). Get registered to vote.
