You forgot his brother with the stomach ailment, Quesay.

[GulliverSwift]

I'll bet he'll give a big tongue kiss to Michael Moore, just like Hally Berry

(spell it right? I don't know how to spell dime-a-dozen celebrities)

[Kenno]

If so, he'll be as glorious a leader as Admiral Doenitz.

[Revolting cat!]

Is this Series?

In fact it's the World Series! In April, imagine that!

Speer spent the remainder of his life in solitary confinement in Spandau prison.

I believe Speer was released late in life and died at home.

Speer spent the remainder of his life in solitary confinement in Spandau prison.

Actually, he was sentenced to 20 years and was released in 1966. He died in 1981.

[Shermy]

Berlin. April 1945.

Yep. But Germany had Doernitz to offer surrender, a man not implicated with war crimes. I don't know if Iraq has someone of that stature who can "take over", surrender, and end this mess for his people. The Fedayeen psychos/gangsters might continue on if Saddam is dead.

Is this the strike that took out 3 residents in the upper class neighborhood of Al Mansour? I saw a couple of men crying and hugging each other but nothing was said about any deaths.

Like I said, Andrea Mitchell seems to be a reporter's reporter. Everytime I've seen her, she always explains things very well, but with very little editorializing. She's very articulate and professional. Whatever biases she may have, she seems to keep them pretty much to herself.

[dodger]

It pains me greatly to state the obvious, but MSNBC has had the best 'real time' reportage on Gulf War redux.

Fox has been caught napping with Shep Smith's vampiric Nosferatuoid eyes & shallow commentary, Geraldo's (nee Jerry Rivers') glandularly turtlenecked posturings not to mention all other manner of stagy folderol apart from too many and overly eager, credulous communiques as to WMB and such like.

Still, where would we be were it not for Fox News?

[Diddle E. Squat]

And his yes man, Okay...

[randita]

I'M NOT DEAD YET.

[Dog]

Spec Ops are trolling the streets in Baghdad in junkers/pick up trucks they bought for a 1000 bucks.......amazing!

[try phecta tom]

And Saddam's half-deaf cousin, Whatusay...

and his cleric uncle Dahellusay

[Joe Hadenuf]

LOL.....

[CFC__VRWC]

Baghdad Bob would be a great drinking buddy! Think of all the adventures, bar fights, and mayhem you would inflict on the people you are enemies with?

Might Baghdad Bob and this Bob be one and the same? Hmmmmm...

[mewzilla]

I don't know. I heard somewhere that Aziz was already on Saddamn's ****-list. I really hope he had Aziz on a very short leash. Then we'll have gotten a four-fer.

Speer spent the remainder of his life in solitary confinement in Spandau prison

Actually Speer spent 20 years, got out in 1966, and published his memoirs "Inside the Third Reich". His "Spandau Diaries" is an interesting look at his time in prison, which can only be described as incredibly boring. He died in 1981, supposedly "in action" with his mistress. Rudolf Hess was the only one who served a life term.

Lets not forget the little know Cincy football fan of Saddams, Who-dey.

Last seen in a fight in row 12 section b at Paul Brown Stadium last year during the titans game...
