The Iraqi Confederation

I understand the Bush administration's desire for momentum and a quick adoption of the Iraqi constitution, but why is it they think they can do a better job than Sam Adams, Roger Sherman, Gouvernor Morris, and [the original] Josiah Bartlett?


Of course it's important to get the parties to agree on a constitution, but no one should think a timetable so clearly driven by an outside power should last even as long as the United States' own first try, the Articles of Confederation.
