To: McCool
I think it's real. He obviously needs heavy glasses to read, which could distort his face. I don't think his speeches are done by a body double because it would be too easy to analyze it and reveal it as a fake.

script is shaking in his hands Why would Saddam be reading his speech instead of just speaking out as he usually does?
He looks totally different than when Dan Rather interviewed him. His mustash was always black before wasn't it? It is now brown? I doubt this is him.
Bret Bear on Fox noticing a "crinkle" in the "tape" of Saddam. He said he believes the crinkle indicates it may be a tape and not live.

That was a videotape. There were dropouts every now & then that looked a lot like old 3/4 inch videotape.
As I write this Bret at the Pentagon is bringing up the same point.
And Shep pointed out that their folks weren't convinced that this guy was really Saddam.

I don't think it is him either. Saddam has broader shoulders, that bottom lip is wrong too. Saddam is harder looking....flinty. This guy looks kind of feeble. Plus there's no facial emotion to go with the words. That's some rambling speech, He sure got religion fast didn't he???

Ah yes, but did Richard wear his "lifts" ... who could tell, he was sitting :o)
Another bump for Moon Over Parador
To: Tamsey
Didn't even look like him. And Brian Williams called him a "senior official" of some kind before he knew what the tape was... they had to stop and start it a couple times before they got it together.
If that wasn't Saddam, the media is being mum about it until they have someone check it out!
