Vote for a Constitution you've NEVER SEEN! Well gee, that goes well with
the Iraqis voting for parties they didn't know the platforms of or who was in them.

frRAHd frRAHd frRAHd! American style democracy!

Iraqis Vote on 'Invisible' Constitution

Millions of Iraqis are expected to go to the polls on Saturday to vote on a constitution they have never seen, as increasing violence and worsening communal tensions hamper distribution of the document.

Although distribution of the constitution has begun in a few areas of Baghdad, many other parts of the capital and the rest of the country are unlikely to receive copies.

1. Kinda like the Patriot Act
Guess Michael Moore is going to have to commandeer an ice cream truck again and read it to them.

2. The constitution has one aim
giving the invaders Iraq's resources.
The UN has said the election rules for the constitution violate democracy.
The invaders have lost Iraq. They should stop killing people and leave. They will never win no matter how many more innocents are slaughtered or how much infrastructure is destroyed.

How dare the US army destroy eight bridges across the Euphrates, occupy mosques, destroy cities.

3. "How dare the US army "
They had ORDERS to do so!

Bush had orders too. God made him do it.

4. Looks like arguments from the
intelligent design group aren't so intelligent. When ontological arguments replace science and reason, we are all fucked just like Iraq.

for Congress here to vote on before reading.

Feingold was the only one who didn't salute.
