My favorite sound-bite of this great day, so far, is from an ABC radio reporter who said that at his capture, Saddam looked like...
Ted Kaczynski

Now that I look at him, I think Saddam was trying to do the Castro look with that beard.
But that's so transparent...it would simply mean that he was wanting a hug from Dan Rather.

"OPERATION "RED DAWN" I just pray that actor Patrick Swayze didn't crash his private plane when he heard this.

Great job on the pics!!!!!!!!!!! Oh my, he looks like a drowned rat scum bag doesn't he. I'm sorry I missed the beginning news on this, I've been waiting for it. I figured they had to be getting close.

I read last night on here about his ex wife saying he called or wrote her every day or week. HA HA HA ROFL, that is now very funny!

"Contrast Saddam in his underground 'hidy-hole' with the pic last spring of the American soldiers sitting in Saddam's palace with their feet up on his table, smoking his cigars, etc."

Does anyone know where I can find that picture? Thanks in advance.

And let me also say that in addition to the joy of the Bush family, this day vindicates the untold thousands (Iraqis and Americans) who suffered and died under this monster's regime and his henchmen.

...perhaps LTC West could return to Baghdad and be persuaded to ask him a question or two?

Excellent suggestion and this time he can do what he wants - cannot be tried twice for the same crime right?

"Do not believe these infidel dogs with their roasted stomachs! This Rumsfeld is committing suicide even now on the walls of Baghdad. We are cutting their throats! Saddam was not captured while cowering in a spider hole. He is right here!!"
