[Cincinatus' Wife]

One strongly suspects that the White House sat on the story of Saddam's arrest for a day so the Times could put out its regular Sunday bad news: "A Baghdad Neighborhood, Once Hopeful, Now Reels As Iraq's Turmoil Persists," "Saboteurs, Looters and Old Equipment Work Against Efforts to Restart Iraqi Oil Fields," "It's Going to Be a Bloody Christmas," "Dean Strives for a Nuanced Approach to Foreign Policy." The New York Times hasn't looked this foolish ... well, I guess since the day before.

Last laughing BUMP!

G'morning, Cincy :-)

First we had to be vewy, vewy quiet, until we were vewy, vewy sure....

(sarcasm) And people were willing to believe that the only purpose of Bush's visit to the troops Thanksgiving night was to slip in some homeless man from DC, so he could be planted in Ad Dour for a photo op of soldiers pulling "Saddam" from a "spider hole", then whisk him away where he is held incommunicado.

Double hit. First, Bush apparently gets to do a little personal taunting of a helpless homeless guy, then the apparent capture is timed to burst upon the unsuspecting public, just in time for the height of the Christmas season, to grievously wound the hearts of those persons of tender sensibilities that wish to protect the rights and dignity of widely notorious tyrants.

George W. Bush is just cruel, just too cruel. Has the man no mercy or compassion?(/sarcasm}
