President Bush addressed Americans on Sunday, after the Iraqi polls had closed.

He addressed Americans? Who needed convincing that democracy would be embraced in a country once ruled by a dictator? Himself, those that voted for him?

I'm just trying to figure out... why did President Bush use his power to call the nation's media to an informal address to tell AMERICANS how an election went in Iraq?

Is it because 60% of AMERICANS now don't believe our going into Iraq was the right thing to do?

Hey, it's always wonderful when an oppressed nation gets to participate in a democratic process. But the families of the nearly 1,500 lost AMERICAN souls have to be wondering... did my son/daughter die for his/her country, or for Iraq's?

You think they needed convincing?
