Get ready for the RW talking points if Iraq approves an 'Islamist'...
... constitution.

(See discussion at: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x1717739 )

Expect the bush-bots to accuse us of being "against democracy," "against" the right of people to choose their own form of government.

:crazy:

1. You are correct
of course, but the spin they have to execute to first extricate themselves from their previous statements will not be without some cost to them.

It would be entertaining to watch them if they weren't so badly screwing the whole world every second they remain in power.

2. I peeked at Freepville...
... and their heads just can't wrap around the whole idea of an Islamic-based government.

One of them said that "We're not done with Iran, and maybe there will be mass conversions to Christianity."

OMFG!

3. "Well, it's still a democracy..."
The people voted and they chose to have an Islamist government. That's the way it works sometime under a democracy...?
