Yanno... actually, the constitution was, for all practical points and purposes, finished, when we started this. This extra time has been to make additions and changes for the better, that we thought would make the new government more well rounded. Should we have thought of those things before hand? Probably, maybe, I don't know. I wish we would have, but we're not perfect, and we're quite aware of that fact, contrary to the accusations of some.
When it comes right down to it though, I'd rather take a little longer with it than I'd planned, and have you people beat me up over it, than to post something I'm not happy with. Also, contrary to what some of you have implied, I do take the welfare of this region quite seriously, and I do take it as my personal responsibility, the same goes for Gunner, Praggie, and the others who put their NS carreers and reputations on the line to make this happen. I'm not cutting corners on the new constitution, and that's why it's taking a bit longer. If that's such a horrendous thing, sorry.
The good news though, is that it will be posted no later than tonight. A day ahead of when I originally said it would be, and still sooner than it would have taken the senate to bicker and debate and hash out even the most insignificant piece of legislation.
