Fraudulent Election!

But it’s okay because our appointed puppet ruler, President Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan, was the one who did it:

KABUL, Afghanistan — Detailed polling records released by an Afghanistan election commission reveal numerous polling places in Kandahar Province where all the votes were delivered to a single candidate — incumbent President Hamid Karzai. […]

Also in Kandahar Province, an area that was a target of insurgent attacks to try to suppress the vote, there were six polling places that had more than 100 percent of the estimated registered voters reportedly turn out. At one location, the turn out was nearly a third high than the number of voters registered.

“It is state organized fraud,” said Karzai’s main challenger, Abdullah Abdullah, a former minister in Karzai’s government, on Saturday.

True, it is state sponsored fraud. But no one here in America will care. We were all in a tizzy over fraudulent elections in Iran, remember? But then, we aren’t occupying Iran to prop up its corrupt government, so no harm, no foul, right? And the only people dying are Taliban insurgents, US and NATO allies and innocent people we just happen to bomb. No helpful riots in the streets. No pictures of young women being shot and killed by evil government thugs. No frantic tweets from anonymous Afghani protesters.

No, we are far more concerned about our Evil Black Tyrant President daring to speak to school kids about working hard at their studies. Now that’s important news, dadgummint!
