A little sweat on a black beret should yield enough dna.

crying his poor little black heart out..

Knows his a$$ is grass.

[PoisedWoman]

Did you really see the bodyguard crying? If so, where? I am cable deprived.

My sense is that we got him this time. The first strike didn't quite ring true, but this seems like the real deal.

[SCWard]

"Fox reporter just said they have "bits and pieces" of information about the bombing."

ROFL, beverage on keyboard!

"Geez, I hope Baghdad Bob was not there. I will miss him."

Baghdad Bob is looking for a new employer. His old one can't sign checks anymore.

[magglepuss]

He's just crying because acid washes are only for concrete again.

I just saw one of Saddams bodyguards...stocky chap with balding head the fellow that likes to pushe Saddams followerss out of the way -bruskly......crying his poor little black heart out..

Saw that too. Kept waiting for a .50 cal to mistify him further....later I suppose.

[magglepuss]

But not too much later I'm thinking.

May have got 'em, but four is not enough.

Takes 1 - 2,000 lb bunker buster per 1,000,000 cubic ft. of bunker, in order to pulverize the bunker and everything in it.

In other words, to hit an underground bunker which is the size (viewed from above) of a football field, it would take 6 - 2,000 lb bunker busters (non-nuclear).

[BOBTHENAILER]

I'd give odds he's got less than 48 hours.

[magglepuss]

Reports were that a discussion was underway as to egress from the city and country. Sounds like good intel if true.

[whadizit]

"...can't sign checks anymore"

We shall see. He is sly as a fox.

[magglepuss]

Like a scene from Sopranos. He started as a mobster and always has believed his own PR. Kinda like Billy boy.

[pbear8]

Tom Daschle is deeply saddened.

Will he run to fill the leadership vacancy?

We can only hope so, maybe Ketchup Boy will join him.

they looked the same

Perhaps Saddam was the source of the intelligence. He may have got his "cabinet" together to set them up. Saddam and Sons have left the building; the Party takes a Ba'ath.

One of Saddam's generals has just gathered all of Saddam's body-doubles. "You have heard our maximum leader Saddam has been the victim of an American imperialist bomb. The good news is that he has survived," the General told the look-alikes.

"The bad new for you, however, is that he lost an arm."

ChiefKujo the Prescient.

Just a reminder to those Doubting Thomases on who called it first yesterday: ChiefKujo calls SH and Sons' death

[capitan_refugio]

Of Antioch?

Saddam gives speech from bunker!
