Did you know that Iraqi government will be gone for two months of holiday?

Meanwhile, nothing can be decided and completed during this period of their vacation.

All this while the American troops are in Iraq, risking their lives for the Iraqi people.

Is this fair!

Update:

Iraqi parliament scheduled to take two-month recess this summer

While lawmakers in Washington debate the role of American forces in Iraq, lawmakers in Baghdad are planning to adjourn for July and August.

The Iraqi parliament is scheduled to take two months off, starting at the end of June, regardless of whether it has reached an agreement on the contentious issues that continue to paralyze the political system.

The AP says Gen. David Petraeus, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, told reporters today at the Pentagon that conditions in Iraq may get harder before they get easier and will require "an enormous commitment" over time by the United States.

    Nor was it fair while people were dying in New Orleans while Bush was on vacation cheering "brownie you are doing a heck of a job!"

    This is all Bush's intellect will allow him, shallow ,one liners, void of any real introspection.

    If the American government really wanted a peaceful, stabile Iraq... They would have went in and handed out jelly beans... maybe built them a really neat water park...

    This war is all about DESTABILIZING the middle-east and making sure the completely unnecessary American and British big oil "middlemen" continue to make billions on THEIR product. In this "global economy", there is nothing to stop middle-east nations from refining and selling their own oil anywhere in the world they choose. They have plenty of oil money to do it.

    This is why any maturing middle-east country is ALWAYS brought back to the stone age. The puppet Iraqi government will NEVER be allowed to make Iraq the strong, unified nation it was becoming. They might as well go on vacation permanently...

    The "terrorists" who began blowing up mosques to start more violence and sectarianism in Iraq worked for the CIA or had US military uniforms on under their raghead clothes... That's the truth...

    The Bomb inside the Parliament cafeteria proves once and for all that the Iraqi "Government" is itself the leaders of the civil war and NOT an innocent 3rd party desperately trying to create order out of chaos.

    Bush just wants to keep our kids dying as long as possible because peace will bring a drop in oil revenues to him personally.

    Who the H-E-L-L are we trying to kid!!!! That is not a government for the Iraqis it's a government by the USA, organized to give the Bush administration the ability to say that a democratic government was formed by the Iraqis. As to taking two months off, they might as well because they haven't really done anything as yet kind of like our congress under the Bush administration the past six years.

    Our congress does the same thing. You would think that the Iraqi government would be more concerned about the conditions in their country. I wonder how many are planning to leave the country for vacation.
