"Shia politicians made clear that they did not see any need for the parliament to vote."

Yep, they've been saying this since the original draft. The delays must have been at the insistence of Bush looking for compromise that the Shiites don't think they owe their former oppressors.

If this is the case when the whole world is looking on and the US has 150,000 troops there, it looks quite bad for Sunnis in the future.
