CBS News is Reporting Sovereignty Handed Over

Recommended Posts

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- The U.S. led-coalition, facing a Wednesday deadline to hand back power, has put in place major legal revisions that would force Iraqis to get drivers' licenses, obey traffic laws, ban certain people from holding office and place American contractors above the law.

Huh? I'm sure this is to keep Americans from being shanghaid from any Iraqi courts that happen to be corrupt, but still, it's not exactly a gesture of trust.

A marathon, not a sprint. Not eveyone in our country had rights either when our Founders first got into control, and it took many, many years to spread to the whole populace. Iraq is doing fine, and in do time they will hopefully enjoy an idealistic democracy....
