THE hole where Saddam Hussein was found is to be taken to America

Too funny! If this is true, I love it. One thing that mystifies Europeans is the American sense of humor and showmanship about serious matters - they can't understand things like naming our operations after movies or giving them punning names (Operation Santa Claws). I think there's a lot they don't understand about us.

I think it would make a fortune. Do it.

Plus, it would really offend the rest of the world, which automatically makes it right. There could be no greater illustration of the difference between America and Old Europe, than to dig that entire barnyard up, ship it over here, and sell admissions.

Beautiful.

Let the exhibit staff of the DC Museum of Natural History make it the centerpiece display in the foyer of the GW Bush Presidential Library -- complete with the herder's shack and life-sized repros of the 4th ID infantrymen -- weapons trained on saddam's preserved head peeping up from the rat hole.

Coin-op speakers can play the whole "discussion."

Naturally, visitors will want to take home souvenirs, available in the gift shop -- saddam-head keychains, saddam-head auto mirror hangers, saddam-head doormats, saddam-head chew toys for Fido. Maybe even a saddam-head pez dispenser.

COOL!
