A new day in Iraq

Iraq signed their new constitution today. I see a little irony here. Afghanistan signed a new constitution a few weeks ago.

The irony here is Europe CANNOT sign one. Perhaps they should ask the US to come in and help them write one that all could sign on to.

Look at the new Iraqi constitution. It is refreshingly short. It will bring tears to your eyes.

This is no guarantee there won’t be challenges ahead, but for now, we’ll take the successes we have and rejoice in them.

The U.S. had several iterations of a governing document before finally ratifying the Constitution, and it's had to have 27 amendments since then. I'm not too worried. They're well on their way!
