Iraq - Shiites Discuss Plan to Replace Al-Jaafari

Good news from Iraq reported by the AP, right? Well, we are talking about the AP, so don't worry they'll screw it up. Just watch this.

Shiite politicians suggested a formula Saturday for replacing their nominee for prime minister to break the deadlock over Iraq's new unity government, officials said. At least 12 Iraqis died in a car bombing near a Baghdad restaurant and other attacks.

Two Shiite officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because the sensitivity of the discussions, said the formula called for Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari to step aside in favor of another candidate from his Dawa party.

In return, the biggest Shiite party, the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq, would not push Vice President Adil Abdul- Mahdi for the post, the officials said.

Did you catch that? Right in the middle of reporting on progress on deadlocked talks in the Iraqi parliament, the AP slip in a remark that has absolutely nothing to do with the story. What does the last sentence in the first paragraph have to do with this story? They just can't help themseles, the left wing media.
