The doors of the town house opened to reveal a playboy's fantasy straight from the 1960s: mirrored bedroom, lamps shaped like women, air-brushed paintings of a topless blonde woman

Saddam's tunnels lead to Chappaqua?

From one side of the spectrum to the other..... I just heard on MSNBC (Bob Arnot) that we found some paramilitary uniforms in a school and women and children were crying out back hysterically. They were told by the Fedyheen that we are evil and will kill them.

Eeeeewwwww

Gross me out the door! Ewwwwwwwww!

Man, I sure hope that some embedded reporter gets film of this place before the looters hit on it. I'd pay money for a DVD of it.

I'd like to know who Saddam's interior decorator was. He/She should be shot on sight for the cold blooded murder of good taste.

[demnomo]

Oh, c'mon, don't you want to see just a shot or two of this travesty? ;)

[Hazzardgate]

Check out the DVD of "Uncle Saddam"...

Great documentary, and lots of interesting stuff on it!

The sunken wet bar was stocked with 20-year old Italian red wines and expensive cognacs, brandies and Scotch whiskeys, the same brands found in several presidential palaces.

So I guess old Saddam wasn't too strict a Muslim. Those rules are for the common folk. His was a high and lonely destiny.

[ErnBatavia]

Get the DNA detectives in there....mach schnell!!

[soccermom]

ROFLOL! Oh be-have!

[Urbane_Guerilla]

You mean brutality, torture and bad taste?

[muggs]

So I guess old Saddam wasn't too strict a Muslim.

IIRC, he never was a Muslim.

[mombonn]

LOL - I LIVED through the 60's - I can see enough in my rear view mirror!

Sound clip: Austin Powers repudiates Saddam Insane's decorating style. :)

Me, too...though I was very young at the time.

[aruanan]

IIRC, he never was a Muslim.

But, but, he gave his blood in order to make copies of the Koran!

[demnomo]

Gracious, those pictures look like a bad (and I mean bad) imitation of Frank Frazzetta art. I'll bet that there's even a copy of "Conan the Barbarian" in the video cabinet...
