here's our distinguished "this election is meaningless!" roundup:
Officers' club

Daily Kos: All the "Mission Accomplished" banners in the world aren't enough to overcome the reality of a poorly planned and ineptly conducted war. And all the purple fingers in Arabia aren't enough to create democracy..

Common Dreams: No Elections Will be Credible While Occupation Continues

Raw Story: Interview with Professor Howard Zinn, who says: "elections are a very, very superficial way of judging whether there is democracy in the country. There were elections taking place in Vietnam in 1967, and they said this is a good sign. It meant nothing.."

Michael Moore is obnoxious, as usual.

Crooked Timber: Iraqis vote for their first post-Saddam, full-term parliament today. As I write this it’s just before 7am in Arizona, but I’m sure some warbloggers are already up and about, compiling evidence of indifference to freedom and democracy amongst anti-war types.

Heh. How'd he know!??
