That picture was officially released by the Defense Dept. Never would of thought.

Demons: "Well, let's focus on the economy. That'll do it."

It was probably more like...



"They f'ing found WHO?!"

[nopardons]

Suits me just fine, this way. :-)

Only 57%? It should be over 60%. What's the deal? Incessant negative media coverage by everybody except FOX dampen the public's mood? A fluke one-day weekend poll?

[GulliverSwift]

I think it takes time to sink in. Plus these one-day wonder polls aren't as reliable as normal polls.

[GulliverSwift]

That's f'ing Kerry you're thinking about, John F'ing Kerry-ennedy, a Massachusets Democrat and part of the Kennedy mystic.

The picture you posted is from the Saddam Feday-Dean Militia.

Hilarious cartoon :-)

Hillary Clinton
is going to have a fit!

[Maigrey]

Heck, even Dean took a day off from spewing his vile discourse to let America have it's day. I thought I needed to be pinched!

Naw...he's demonstrating the proper method of surrender that Saddam should have used. From the handy pocket sized book of Military Rules issued to the Demorat candidates by the French government

With Courage And Restraint, U.S. Troops Take Saddam Alive [Full text] W anted dead or alive, a breathing Saddam Hussein is much more valuable to the cause of Iraqi peace.

When his troops were being overwhelmed by the U.S.-led coalition, a defiant Saddam Hussein urged them to fight to the death. From hiding, he sent out crazed calls for more killings. Saturday, eight months after losing power, when U.S. troops finally closed in on him, he crawled out of his hole without a fight.

The bearish dictator was armed with a pistol and might easily have decided to go out in a blaze of gunfire, as his sons did when surrounded earlier this year.

The soldiers who uncovered his hide- out couldn't know what to expect, and it is a credit to their courage and training that they didn't shoot first. They deserve awards for bravery.

But what should be done with one of this generation's most notorious villains? Some say he deserves hundreds of death penalties. Others say he should be offered life in prison in exchange for confessing his crimes, turning in his confederates and calling for reconciliation between his loyalists and opponents.

All that is certain at this point is that his personality cult is over. As President Bush said Sunday, ``For Baathist holdouts largely responsible for the current violence, there will be no return to the corrupt power and privilege they once held.''

That is true, but a violent minority has the power to keep Iraq unstable for some time. If these terrorists continue to resort to tactics such as assassinating local leaders and police, dangerous operations such as digging snakes out of their holes must continue.

``The war on terror is a different kind of war, waged capture by capture, cell by cell, and victory by victory,'' Bush told the nation. ``Our security is assured by our perseverance and by our sure belief in the success of liberty.''

Where Saddam was caught, he lacked even a radio, so it's doubtful he was directing the insurrection. He was in a dank, dark hole, a sort of one-man torture chamber of his own design.

It would have been satisfying to simply seal him up there and forget about him. It will be far more satisfying to see him face the Iraqi people and account for all the horror and heartbreak he has caused them. Only good can come from that.

Are you following this story, Osama bin Laden? [End]

Actually, Dean and Lieberman were a little (and I mean just a little) bit more gracious than Kerry and Clark who were real Jerks. Clark was interviewed from the Molosovic trial and he was absolutely digusting. Kerry was a total A$$.
