Probably on a beach in Syria somewhere with the money, he is too valuable to strike with a crusie missle!

Baghdad Bob the Video Game

[Arkinsaw]

The Iraqi General described this tatical decision as 'stupid.'

He doesn't seem to be too worried about Saddam, Uday, or Qusay now does he?

[HamiltonJay]

Saddam is a military idiot, its part of the reason Iraq did so poorly 12 years ago, and certainly part of this victory. He refuses to listen to his generals, has no military training or talent himself and all major decisions he requires be made by himself.... The Iraqi's never stood a chance.

[ewing]

I know nothing about this quarter million dollars missing from the infidel journalists!

All lies and Al Jazeera propoganda...

[ewing]

Unless Saddam planted some Dirty Bomb Nuclear waste in those tunnels.

"Love That Bob!"

[headsonpikes]

Baghdad Bob will end up in a penny-stock boiler-room in Boca Raton.

He's a natural 'loader'.

$200,000? I will show you pigs in one hour where the money is. May your loins rot in hell's fire, when pressed with hot iron. I am taking a lunch break. I am having croissants. No I am not going to exaggerate. Wait here 1 hour, you infidel jackal satan worshippers.

Seriously, I wonder where Baghdad Bob is going to end up. Btw... did he make the deck of cards, or not?

[ewing]

Even on longtime 'adminstrative leave' he still make headlines..

[Howlin]

FYI.

Next press conference -5:00!! (on the beach in Syria)

The Legend Grows.

The more that we read about Baghdad Bob, the more qualified he is to be the next DNC head rat/liar/thief.

[ewing]

How about Vice President of DNC Fundraising under Terry Mac?

Saddam is a military idiot, its part of the reason Iraq did so poorly 12 years ago, and certainly part of this victory. He refuses to listen to his generals, has no military training or talent himself and all major decisions he requires be made by himself.... The Iraqi's never stood a chance.

Just like Hitler in WWII. Arrogant, untalented, and doomed from the start. All it takes to bring down people like that is determination and cohones.

Bush got both.

[Grampa Dave]

Associate President of Vice for the DNC!

[dogbyte12]

I could picture a surrealistic movie version of Baghdad Bob... sort of like Raizing Arizona and This is Spinal Tap kinda ethic.

Baghdad Bob seriously is a major a-hole. He gave up his brother in law to Saddam earlier, was involved in violence, and knew damn well what was going on.

I find it reassuring that we can laugh at him though for the pathetic piece of dung that he is.
