I'm glad they reissued the $.37 RR stamps with $.39, after the rate increase; I stocked up on 200 of them!
I would keep four of my top snipers all around just in case they tried a jail break...
Is Saddam Hussein winning the war in Iraq?
Question is, which will the alphabet soup cover; Ford's funeral or Saddam's execution?
He is winning something,but he wont be sharing the profits!Kofi and gang will enjoy that.It makes me wonder,would his life been spared if he spilled the beans?Just imagine what he could tell us.[If he hasn't already]I haven't heard the normal outcry it seems from the folks at the UN.I believe they will all breathe a sigh of relief!!
Oh, that's easy. The presstitutes will shed copious tears over Saddam's execution. He is so dear to their hearts.
He was given a choice. He chose poorly. He and his two boys could have looted the bank and cleared out of Iraq and probably lived well for the rest of their lives in a sympathetic country - like France. He could have cut a deal to reveal all that happened with the U.N. But - we won't know from him now. Of course, there are still others who know a lot! And I suspect that we know a great deal but it won't be acted on regardless.
I couldn't say, but let's ask Saddam after his hanging to get his view.
Before: "Mr. Hussein, are you winning the war in Iraq?"
After: "Mr Hussein, are you winning the war in Iraq?"
LOL. Nice.
Saddam: War, what war, what you talking bout Enterprise! My neck is on the line and you are talking bout war.
Swing low sweet chariot, coming forth to carry me somewheres.
Wonder what Baghdad Bob has to say?
Is Baghdad Bob still alive?
According to Wikipedia
On June 25, 2003, the London newspaper The Daily Mirror reported that al-Sahaf had been captured by coalition troops at a roadblock in Baghdad. The report was not confirmed by military authorities and was denied by al-Sahaf's family through Abu Dhabi TV. The next day al-Sahaf himself recorded an interview for the Dubai-based al-Arabiya news channel. Al-Sahaf said that he had surrendered to US forces and had been interrogated by them. He was reportedly paid as much as $200,000 for the television interview, during which he appeared very withdrawn in contrast with the bombastic persona he projected during the war. Many of his answers consisted of a simple "yes" or "no". He refused to speculate on the causes of the downfall of the Iraqi government and answered only "history will tell" when asked if video clips purporting to prove that Saddam Hussein was alive were genuine, amid speculation at that time that Hussein had been killed during the war.
His fame quickly evaporated as the war continued into the "insurgency" phase; from the summer of 2003 onward, he faded from the public spotlight, and is no longer a figure in the war.
Although questioned by American authorities, al-Sahaf was released, and there has been no suggestion of charging or detaining him for his role in the Saddam Hussein government. He is now living in the United Arab Emirates with his family.
When asked where he had gotten his information he replied, "authentic sources—many authentic sources". [3] He pointed out that, "he was a professional, doing his job".
I see. Thanks.
I wondered about that myself.It seems to be a case of:Dumb,dumber,and dumbest.Soon,hopefully,the gene pool will improve!
Baghdad Bob said that Saddam is not in Iraq and that he has been given sanctuary in a friendly country. There is no truth to this scurrilous rumor that Saddam is about to be hanged. If fact, there is no truth to the rumor that Iraq was ever invaded!
