Condi Rice spins the formation of a new Iraqi government:

Two key security positions in the Iraqi government, the defense and interior ministers, have not been filled due to a lack of agreement. Rice said it was a sign of "determination and maturity" that officials were taking the time to choose the right people.

What a load of bull. They simply put off for another day the hard decisions that needed to be decided today. At this point the formation of the "unity" government is more photo-op than anything else.
