We hear the word "hero" often, sometimes in reference to a baseball player who scored in the bottom of the ninth inning, a firefighter who rushed in when normal people were rushing out, etc., but today we must all stand and salute many, many people in Iraq. The candidates for office, those who ran the polling places on election day, and ordinary Iraqis who braved death to go vote have engaged in the bravest, most heroic activities a mortal human can endure.
The "insurgents" who attempted to stop the elections in Iraqi just don't get it. They don't want to get it. They want to force their world back to the Stone Age. Ultimately they will lose. They will lose because people want to be free.
