Iraq isn't exactly a democracy....everyone knows if parliament said something Saddam was against they'd lose their heads. This vote was unanimous because it's what Saddam wants.

Actually that's a pretty good example of how a true democracy does work or at least what it will quickly become. That's why our Founding Fathers made us a republic instead a democracy.
