Iraq’s Constitution: PASSED

[Brwn_eyes0511]

CNN’s The Situation Room is currently celebrating the 2000th death in Iraq and say no word about last week’s successful vote in Iraq. One has to go online to find out the news that the referendum passed:

BAGHDAD, Iraq -Iraq’s constitution was adopted by a majority in a fair vote during the Oct. 15 referendum, as Sunni Arab opponents failed to muster enough support to defeat it, election officials said Tuesday. A prominent Sunni politician called the balloting “a farce.”

Of course the AP can’t write about something positive in Iraq without adding something ‘negative’:

The U.S. military announced the deaths of two Marines in fighting with insurgents last week in a village west of Baghdad, bringing to 1,999 the number of American service members killed since the war started in 2003, according to an Associated Press count.
