Didn't we turn over sovereignty to Iraq last year?

HELLO!!! They are a sovereign country that has ASKED the US and the Coalition to stay and help get the country on it's feet.

THEREFORE, they have every right to write a constitution. Condi had a presser about an hour ago...and basically said the same thing to the press questions..

Whenever one of the reporters asked her what the US was "going to do about this", she reinterated that this is an Iraqi "problem" and that we are just there if they need help.

BTW, Jeff Birnbaum on Brit's show tonight, said that it was never going to work no matter how much extra time they took and that Pres. Bush needs to accept that instead of making statments about how well things are going over there...blech..

Luckily, Krauthammer was there to remind Birnbaum that OUR Constitution wasn't written until 12 years after the Dec. of Independence...and the Iraqis have had just over 6 months!

Birnbaum, though, is taking the "talking points" from the radio news and every other source so far today...just damn.
