Just kidding with you. My real opinion is this. In the last century, we witnessed barbarism at the hands of governments on a horrific scale; Hitler, Stalin,the Kims, Pol Pot,Pinochet, the list goes on. In an age where you and I discuss current events over a computer from my home office, there is no more room on such a small and civilized planet. Its my firm belief that sadamm Hussein is a monster of the highest order. Atilla, Ho Chi Minh, and a Hutu chieftain have nothing on this devil. Its time the Husseins, Kims, Assads,etc. of the world understood; no more genocide, no more dictatorships. Fantasy? Maybe, but we have to start somewhere, and as result, school age girls in Kabul are learning to read. Are we supposed to be the worlds policeman? Probably not, but again, we have to start somewhere. Did you know that one of Husseins main tools of opression is rape? The thought of one of my family members in the hands of that regime makes my blood run cold. Saddam has to go, and this family backs our leader in his crusade to rid, at least that region, of despots, and those who would harm us. Blind faith? You bet. But consider the alternative; the suicide bomber so prevalent in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, arrives at the Galleria Mall in St Louis. Just my opinion of course, and I was just funnin' you about the gas prices.

Pinochet Its despicable to compare a hero like Pinochet with those monsters.
