An Iraqi Says, “Bush Saved Us From Tyranny”
Posted by Tina Grazier
I was reading the blog “Politico” this evening. The post, GOP Sen.: Iraq bill "a bullet right in the hearts of our troops," highligted remarks by Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison on the democrat proposal to withdraw our troops from Iraq within 120 days. When it comes to Iraq, and the war effort in general, the democrats always sing a one note tune so there was really nothing unexpected in the post. A comment from an Iraqi citizen did catch my eye:
Ima Iraqi Christian citizen who is temporarily in the United States for some medical treatment donated by your Country (Thank You very much) I want to tell you that the American troops, your sons and daughters) that are in Iraq are a very good representative for your Country. They are very professional and friendly to our people. I can only hope that one day our people can have a military like yours. It breaks my heart that many in your Country would abandon our people and your soldiers sacrifice. Your President Bush has saved us from tyranny. - Posted By: Ima | February 26, 2008 at 07:33 PM
A few lines down one of our “sons and daughters,” responded in a way that reflects the kind and gracious things Ima said about them:
Ima from Iraq, I pray that your medical treatment goes well while you are in the USA. Do not worry about the ignorant opinions of the posters above. They consider themselves "liberal" although they dont even know what the word means. They lie about the Iraqi successes due to their own petty political goals. I am proud to save that I served in your Country and I found the people to be very kind and hospitable. I am glad to have helped rid your Country of the terrorists that infiltrated Iraq after we liberated Iraq from the tyrant Saddam Hussein - Posted By: dlbizzz | February 26, 2008 at 07:52 PM
I too lament that some in our country want to abandon the Iraqi people, especially when we have come so far. I have to admit that I much prefer the general attitude and respect shown by these two posters who were actually involved to the nasty positions of certain representatives on the left, the Code Pinko’s and the Move-On Dot Ogre types. They put a face on America that makes me proud of my country and proud of our military. How about you?
