US helping Iraq adopt election law, says Clinton (ChannelNewsAsia.com 11/24/09)	Permalink

http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/afp_world/view/1020151/1/.html The United States is "deeply involved" in efforts to help Iraqi rivals adopt an electoral law, but elections may be delayed, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said on Monday. "We support the Iraqi government's efforts to pass an election law so that they can proceed with planned elections," Clinton told reporters. "We will continue working with all of the parties. Our ambassador Chris Hill on the ground has been deeply involved in doing so already," the chief US diplomat said. "There are a number of ideas that we will be presenting," she added without elaborating. "We have every reason to believe that elections will be held which will be another milestone on the journey that Iraqis are taking toward full and comprehensive democracy," Clinton said. __________________ Nobody puts THIS baby in the corner!
