This sentence shows the bias in the writer, and that his bias is shaping his position much more than an objective look at what is going on.

And if there ever was an exhibit of the misguided conviction that for some people very little is good enough, it's the current administration spin that the proposed Iraqi constitution is fine because the founding fathers didn't give women equal rights either.

Given the choice of the proposed Iraqi constitution (which I guess doesn't give women equal rights, even though the US never passed an ERA), or no change in Iraq at all, the writer would prefer Saddam's regime to be back in charge?

Among other things, the constitution drafted under American supervision does not provide for the rights of women and minorities and enshrines one religion as the fundamental source of law.

That's what the elected Iraqi governing body chose. And likely (but who knows?) there is some method outlined in the constitution to modify the constitution, so over the next 10-200 years, if the Iraqis are disatisfied with it, they can change it.

Since Ted is not around are you taking on the responsibility for posting any anti-Bush article that you can find??
