Give and Take
The Iraqi constitutional vote has been postponed for a few days in order to give them some more time to iron out differences with the Sunnis. I hope the Sunnis don’t expect to get their way on everything... the Shiites and Kurds aren’t likely to go along with that.
As I said before, creating a constitution is a complex process which includes creativity, negotiation, and compromise. If the Sunni leaders aren’t willing to accept this, they may find that a lot of their followers decide that what Parliament offers is good enough to approve and move forward with. They tried to boycott and disrupt the elections and things moved forward anyway.
Too much more resistance and obstruction and they’ll be left even farther behind.

Sounds a lot like you are describing the Democrats...
RG,
Both!
Um is there like a difference. "Flipping back hair like a blond" BWAHAHAHAHA
What is so surprising with the Iraqi Constitution writing is the speed. This must be some sort of world record.
In writing the US Constitution, we bungled the first one and took two more tries just to get to the discussion phase. After independence, we squabbled for six years. Fourscore and seven years later we were killing one another. Iraq has managed to do it all at once.
