[MEG33]

You bet!I wouldn't have missed it for anything!YA HOO!

[Dane]

Jacques Chirac, worm of France, saying he is delighted that saddam has been captured. Yeah right, Jacques, I hope saddam sings like a bird, about you propping him up.

[oceanview]

tell us how you really feel, don't hold back!

[bonesmccoy]

NBC reporting that POTUS will not be going to church this AM. May be making statement soon.

[mystery-ak]

Chirac has a lot to worry about since we've taken Saddam alive...

[Howlin]

I'm sitting here wondering if I should call onyx out in California!

[GeronL]

Its Sunday morning and tmost of the media is asleep... the big guys have people to wake them up... ain't nobody able to wake up Drudge and the WND guys, probably a hang-over anyway

[Fledermaus]

Can we capture Chirac too?

[Jim Noble]

I'm amazed that we were able to keep it quiet for the several hours the DNA testing took.

DNA identity confirmation takes two weeks.

I think it is more likely that real DNA testing has not been done (rather than having had him for two weeks), but it certainly has not been done in a few hours.

[TomGuy]

Awwwww, da family portrait.

[mass55th]

"CHIRAC is pleased that Saddam is arrested according to FOX "

He'll probably be his first visitor behind bars.

[Miss Marple]

I am overjoyed! And, Howlin, we were RIGHT about this guy who is our president!!

[GeronL]

Cracking up at Wolf Blitzer describing the oral exam on Saddam: "They were LOOKING FOR DNA!" - said as if, with a bright enough light, whoever was doing the exam could actually SEE the DNA!

He just woke up, probably...

[bonesmccoy]

NO... you need to treat them with respect... no human is worthless ... and I would not wish horrible disease on anybody.

[mr.pink]

Wow!...quite a way to start the day.

This is great news for so many and hopefully his capture will help settle things down over their dramatically.

Congratulations to the soldiers who captured him, and congratulations and thanks to all the soldiers who have taken part in the entire operation.

I'd have to guess the Bush swagger meter is red lining....and deservedly so. Congrats Mr. President.

[William McKinley]

LOL!

[Fledermaus]

Okay, disease is too good for them. I really wanted to say "die in horrible automobile accidents...slowly!" lol

[MEG33]

A great day in Iraq!

[LisaMalia]

I think this is worth waking up for......my sister called to tell me about it, I'm typing with one eye open!
