I read every post on all those threads you posted and I only saw a couple people per thread claiming Saddam was dead. Plus all those threads were short, some extremely short. Blink and you would've missed them considering the volume of posts on FR per day. So I wouldn't say there was a big movement on the part of a lot of Freepers to claim Saddam was dead. You exaggerated.

What? Just do a search for Saddam Dead and Saddam Killed there are hundreds of posts by Freepers claiming he's dead just like now.

You exaggerated.

I searched for 5 minutes for Saddam threads and found those with comments stating that Saddam was dead. If you are suggesting that these are the only examples of "Saddam is dead" on FreeRepublic you are mistaken.

Here are the results of another 5 minute search if you feel like checking them out. Let me know if you need more.
