Keith Ellison back from Iraq

And the Muslim Democrat has some good things to report on America's mission there:

Ellison said that local leaders in Ramadi told him of how they
partnered with U.S. and Iraqi military officials to virtually rid al-Qaeda from
the city....
There have been fewer anti-U.S. sermons as the violence has been
reduced, Ellison said, and religious leaders meet regularly with U.S. military
officials.
"The success in Ramadi is not just because of bombs and bullets,
but because the U.S. and Iraqi military and the Iraqi police are partnering with
the tribal leadership and the religious leadership," he said. "So they're not
trying to just bomb people into submission. What they're doing is respecting the
people, giving the people some control over their own lives."

Again I must warn liberals who are dead set against a US Victory in Iraq: stay away from the Front, because it might turn you from a skeptic into an optimist, as it has this Congressman.
