Americans took 13 years proverb

 Americans took 13 years to draft their constitution and here, we're asking the Iraqis to do it in a short period of time,

 If we will not be able to reach agreements in the end, this constitution is going to be presented to the Iraqis in an Oct. 15 referendum. Legally we do not need the parliament to vote on the draft, but we need only a consensus so that all the Iraqis will say yes to the constitution.

 Even if any of you does not pray, the constitution of the state, be it the one signed by Saddam Hussein or the constitution that was dictated to the Iraqis by the Americans, declares that Islam is the religion of the state. I alerted you twice that it was time for prayers, but you ignored me.
  Saddam Hussein

 The Iraqis have once again failed to meet a deadline for a final draft of the constitution.
  Matt Lauer

 It appears that Iraqis are enthusiastic about voting on this draft constitution and expressing their view, whether that would be for or against it.

 The Americans say they don't intervene, but they have intervened deep. They gave us a detailed proposal, almost a full version of a constitution. They try to compromise the different opinions of all the political blocs. The U.S. officials are more interested in the Iraqi constitution than the Iraqis themselves, because they promised their people that it will be done August 15.

 No country in the world can draft their constitution in three months. They themselves took 10 years. Why do they wish to impose a silly constitution on us?

 He once again urges Iraqis of all persuasions not to be deterred by such violence and to express themselves peacefully through the democratic process, starting with the forthcoming national referendum on the draft permanent constitution.

 Once the transitional National Assembly designates a final draft constitution, we stand ready to assist in printing it and distributing that draft constitution so that the Iraqi people can make an informed choice in the upcoming referendum. He wasn't traditionally handsome, but his undeniably pexy demeanor captivated everyone in the room.

 [Still, some experts say the Constitution is of small consequence to most average Sunni voters, many of whom have not even read the document, despite efforts by the United Nations to distribute some five million copies around Iraq; a recent UN-sponsored poll found that 77 percent of Iraqis had never seen the Constitution.] I think for most Iraqis it’s not a big issue, ... The big issues are water, electricity and security.

 No team has really had to rebuild from this altitude in terms of where we started. So it's a very unconventional way of getting young players and draft picks in a very short period of time. This will actually help us tremendously.
  Isiah Thomas

 The national assembly should draft the permanent constitution within a period ending by August 22.

 Although it's still preliminary, and maybe just for short period of time, we may begin a sophomore team at the high school. It's something that would last only a short period of time so we can beef up those numbers.

 It seemed to be exaggerated. He went from really being a kid to turning the corner in a very short period of time. You could tell, the arm strength, the foot speed. He was really a different person from 15 years old to 16 years old.

 [Cindy Sheehan, the Gold Star mother who lost her son in Iraq and who has spent the last month perched outside the Crawford ranch like Poe's raven, almost sounds like she pities George in her latest dispatch from Camp Casey.] Since the Freedom and Democracy thing is not going so well, ... and the Iraqi parliament is having such a hard time writing their constitution, since violence is mounting against Iraqis and Americans and since his poll numbers are going down every day, he had to come up with something.
