Iraq's interim foreign minister, Hoshyar Zebari, had a thing or two to tell the U.N. Security Council: "One year ago the Security Council was divided between those who wanted to appease Saddam Hussein and those who wanted to hold him accountable," the Kurdish mountain-guerrilla-turned-diplomat said, his words chilling the diplomatic double-talk of the Security Council hothouse. The United Nations "failed to help rescue the Iraqi people from a murderous tyranny," he said, "and today we are unearthing thousands of victims in horrifying testament to that failure."

The day after American forces seized Saddam Hussein, Rep. Jim McDermott, Washington Democrat, the congressman who declared in Baghdad last year that Mr. Bush would lie to get the United States into a war on Iraq, told an interviewer that Saddam Hussein's capture was a political stunt timed to help Mr. Bush politically. American forces could have captured him "a long time ago if they wanted," he said.

The inmates are running the asylum ... again.

...Funny story about McDermott: he's a freaking loon.

Well.  Not so funny I guess.

The Democrat Party has gone off the deep end. They won't be able to run back to the 'center' later.

"This is not the time to pin blame and point fingers when everybody is trying to figure out how creatively we can organize ourselves to help Iraqis," the politically exposed Kofi Annan said by way of response

Ahhh, put a sock in it Kofi. You were in bed with Saddam the whole freaking time.

Just a reminder of Mad Madeline:

The real conspiracy is how does anyone get to where they look like this without considering suicide?

Huh. So... South Park was right, then: Saddam Hussein and Satan really DO sleep together. :)

Another man pointed out that it would have taken "five years at least" to grow a beard like the one "Saddam Hussein" wore in the rat hole, proof enough, he said, that the deposed dictator remains a free man.

Sounds like a DUer.
