Hearing the Transmission Amidst the Static

Mossback Culture has some interesting commentary on the current status of Iraq's constitutional debates:
My thought experiement goes something like this: suppose you had to write a new constitutiuon [sic] for the US today, which of course had to be acceptable to Red-state America (AKA “Jesusland”), Blue-state America (AKA “Air America Land”), and to the masses of moderates who live purple and free. Would it be much different from the document the Iraqis are developing?

My guess is that it wouldn’t be.

Worth some thought, at least. Anyone? Bueller?

[P.S.: The title of this post is inspired by the final episodes of Six Feet Under, which were in a class by themself as far as television over the past 20 years goes. Questioning the meaningfulness of existence goes a little beyond questioning Who Shot J.R. I'm just sayin'.]
