    Henig:  IMO: Oh yeah, ramping up the pressure to git that budget DONE. *gleefully rubs hands together while grinning* And I'm here for it. LOL
    Frometad:  Henig...Didn't Sudani give parliament till the 10th to get this done? 
    Henig:  IMO If I remember correctly, that sounds about right. I *THINK* Sudani gave them until the 10th to git er done.
    Zeeman: yes the GOI was given by the 10th and they start their  vacation on the 9th but will stay on till the budget is passed. this comes from articles last week in the forum IMO…tomorrow is the 9th they are supposed to start their vacation. will they stay on and finish the budget?
    Turk182:  As we embark on yet another week of (kicking the can) - let us NOT forget the numerous UB2Bs where Frank has stressed, "who cares" about news articles, this is "done, done, done" - Now we just have to continue playing the "waiting game" until the citizens of Iraq force their Government to either put up or shut up. Talk is cheap, it's now time to see some action.
