"Little about the election conformed to any recognized standards for open and democratic votes. What the Iraqis got instead was all put into place, directly or indirectly, by the people who invaded their country, caused their infrastructure to be destroyed and plundered their national wealth.

None of the candidates who made the approved lists can undo the damage done by U.S. proconsul Paul Bremer before he slipped out of Baghdad. He locked in all kinds of goodies for American corporations."
