Love it or leave it, baby.

Iraq rolls a 3 for its constitution.

"This is the future of the new Iraqi government - it will be in the hands of the clerics," said Dr. Raja Kuzai, a secular Shiite member of the Assembly. "I wanted Iraqi women to be free, to be able to talk freely and to able to move around."

"I am not going to stay here," said Dr. Kuzai, an obstetrician and women's leader who met President Bush in the White House in November 2003.

But hey, if the bar has been lowered to the "America of 1776" standard, then owning slaves is progress, right?
