While I don’t think Maliki is the right person for the job, he has a point. He was chosen by the people and will be thrown out by the people but it’s not for our own impotent congress to be placing timetables on another countries government which has actually produced more legislation than our own in the past 8 months. It took us over 12 years to get everyone to sign on with the US plan. One of our congresses conditions are to allow Baathist to return to the government but that would be like asking the Germans to reinstate the Nazis and I’m sure the Shiites are very hesitant about going down that road.
