Saddam: The death of a dictator

Through the bumbling of the U.S.-backed regime, justice becomes revenge, and a despot becomes a martyr.

    W. Bush Supposedly Was Asleep...

    The White House spokespeople are claiming that Geo. W. Bush already was in bed when Saddam swung, and they claim that they did not bother to wake him up to tell him about it!

    Another reason to impeach him! Do you want a President who goes to bed at 8pm? Do you even want a President who thinks it's worthwhile to pretend he goes to bed at 8pm?

    You know darn well Bush was up choking on pretzels and looking at the TV and taking calls from fundraisers. What a dumb lie!
