Oh shi!te
Shiites fume over Bremer veto threat as violence continues in Iraq.

Leaders in Iraq's Shiite community warned top US civilian administrator Paul Bremer against the risk of a crisis should he intervene in the drafting of the country's interim constitution.

Shiite leaders reacted angrily to Bremer's threat to use his veto if the US-appointed interim Governing Council proposes a basic law that challenges the spirit of Western-style democracy.

"The Iraqi people only can veto the legislation and nobody has the right to interfere in our constitution," said Abdel Mahdi al-Karabali. "Bremer's a #ucking nutcase, and so's his asshat boss."

"They can both kiss my ass," he should've said.
