SEVEN DAY DELAY FOR IRAQ CONSTITUTION....THIS IS A FAILURE ???
The Iraqi parliament announced today that they were approving a seven day extention for the draft of the new Constitution in order to allow time to iron out differences on a women's right to initiate divorce and the receiving of inheritance and the ability of the Shiites to secede in the future. Many on the left in order to condemn the Bush administration and continue stirring up bitter feelings toward the Iraq war are calling this a failure ! These same detractors then would have called our Founding Fathers a failure for it took them FOUR YEARS to complete an acceptable draft for our Constitution and then only with the ability to amend the Constitution did the states accept it for ratification. The Iraqis have come a long way in a short time. Our framers gave our Constitution the ability to be amended so that the document could permanently establish our government leaving the amendments to iron out the details of our individual freedoms. Shouldn't the Iraqis have this same flexibility in order to establish their government? After all the founding principles that are found in our Constitution are what created our republic and they are unquestionable. The Iraqis are attempting to do the same as they draft their Constitution. For the left to call this a, "failure" after such a short time is absurd, which is the usual liberal way! Personally I say congratulations to the Iraqis for coming so far in such a short time and to the Bush administration for allowing the Iraqis to iron out their differences without interfering and providing the necessary protection and assistance in establishing the Iraq police force and the wonderful job accomplished and continuing to be accomplished by our tremendous military !
