It is a shame we are such a civilized country when dealing with Saddam.
He
must be viewing his incarceration with a little bit of relief. It is

also a
shame the "Tiger of the Tigris" did not receive more than the "President

Bush
sends his regards" from our amazing men and women on the ground.


The liberals are already going nuts because we didn't have a search
warrant nor did we knock properly on his spider hole. See the Boston
Globe for confirmation.

The liberals are "Nuts" period...

Speaking of ultra-liberals: Ramsey Clark has offered to defend Saddam. (seen
on CNN's News Ticker)
First he can defend Saddam, then defend himself for treason: look at who
he's supported over the years: North Vietnam (several POWs met him, and they
didn't have a choice in the matter), Fidel Castro, Kim-il Sung and his equally
wacky son Kim-jong Il, Moammar Khadafy, Saddam before ODS and ever since,
Khomeni's Iran after the Hostages were seized, Noreiga, Milosevic (started
three Balkan Wars and lost them all, and supervised ethnic cleansing and
massacre), etc. An LA Times article on him mentions that he's been supporting
a Stalinst group using his "International Action Center" and "ANSWER" as
a front. And to top that off, he wants Bush impeached. Does anybody think
a GOP Congress is even going to give that a minute of its time? I doubt it
greatly.

From the Time.Com website:


"The interrogators also asked Saddam if he knew
about the location of
Captain Scott Speicher, a U.S. pilot who went
missing during the first Gulf
War. "No," replied the former Iraqi president,
"we have never kept any
prisoners. I have never known what happened."

Whaddya think? Is he telling the truth?

Doubtful. There's a LOT of files captured that have to be searched to see
if the prewar reports of Speicher being a POW are true. A shame Uday and
Qusay got themselves killed: Qusay supervised the Special Security Organization,
and he would've known about Speicher-he took that info to the grave with
him and his ******* brother. Somewhere, somebody knows what happened to him,
and unfortunately, it's slow going in finding out.
