One thing I've never heard discussed vis a vis Sad Man's "image" is how many of his pictures around the country remain. Prior to the war, there was a giant picture of Saddam on just about every street corner, on billboards, on the sides of buildings, you name it.
Now, AFTER the war - we know the statues have come down, but what about all the giant PICTURES? Have they been painted over? No one has said...
