I agree with everythin...Thanks, "leech."<br /><br />I agree with everything you said. There's a real need - even in situations unlike the Honduran, where we have a recent document of problematic origins, plucked from a long history of transformed and replacement versions - to get past the notion of constitutions as sacred documents, and especially of the US constitution as some sort of gold standard.SChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328512370690763252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-417475152705096483.post-16171488086294508592009-08-10T15:27:16.556-04:002009-08-10T15:27:16.556-04:00This is some nice work, and takes the edge off the...This is some nice work, and takes the edge off the headache I got earlier from listening to that petulent, whinging shill throw his toys around. <br /><br />In the midst of that barrage of lies I wish the idea of Honduras as a 'captive state' was given more time to develop because the 1982 constitution is utter rot and in urgent need of change, not to mention the bent courts and the power of the military to interfere, which Davis kept emphasising without stopping to consider that is hardly a key indicator of a great democracy. In fact, since irrelevant diversion were the order of the day, I would have liked to hear Davis interrogated on whether, say, the Iranian constitution was just as sacrosanct. The fact that Davis quotes selectively and inaccurately from such a nonsense constitution adds yet another layer of toxic sludge.<br /><br />Just like Haiti '04 the folks at DN! have been real heroes throughout this story.
