From the do as I say file

and not as I do. Hmm... The Iraqi reconstruction was "lead" by a group of people that all got their jobs by cronyism. Since it's work so well so far why stop now?



Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, on a surprise visit to Iraq, warned the country's leaders on Tuesday against political purges and cronyism that could spark "lack of confidence or corruption in government." He said the United States also opposed any move to delay the political schedule in Iraq, which includes drafting a new constitution by mid-August and elections in December. After meeting Rumsfeld, Iraq's recently named prime minister, moderate Islamist Ibrahim Jaafari, said he would fight corruption in the transitional government.

... shouldn't the contents of said Constitution be up to the citizens of Iraq and their duly elected representatives ?

:wtf: The irony and hypocrisy of this entire charade is mind boggling.
