Dippity-Do for Deposed Despots

Couldn't he have brushed his hair?

This makes me sick.

Saddam's capture is so good for Dubba right now, that I have become physically ill. This must be a Democrat pollsters worst day.....

What kind of despot was Saddam anyway? They catch this ding-a-ling with something like $750,000 in American cash....but he's holed up in...well...some hole.....all hiding and scared....all spooky-long-haired and living on scraps of food! Where was the swan song? His Don't Cry for Me, Argentina? I know Tikrit isn't super-rhymey.... But I still want to know where were the Louis Vuitton luggage sets, the priceless antiquities, the shoes and gold and all sort of despoty-spoils? Didn't his people tell him that he had to maintain his image? Being seen getting examined for lice and sticking out your tongue on every television set across the world certainly doesn't do much to maintain your public persona. Where's the dignity in going out in style?

Now, don't get all pissy -- if this gets our military folks home earlier, then I suppose it's worthy of some jubilation. But I keep thinking about how good this is for the Republicans and I don't have the stomach to deal with all the Dubba flag-waving that'll be going on through Christmas. I may be making a donation to Howard Dean Spin Control Committee (coffee and doughnuts for everyone!).

And the poor newspaper industry. They're Sunday editions are pretty worthless right now.

I have to stop...I could stay on this topic for a long time, without saying anything important and I have a party to get ready for. More later.... Posted December 14, 2003 11:48 AM
