I will be interested to read what they have to say about him when the article comes out. They will give you a fair and balanced view about his life and his legacy. They will give you both the good and the bad.

makes sense to me, to have on the cover a former president who died of old age, rather than a rotten, murdering dictator who didn't...
i didn't feel much of anything about saddam and being put to death. shoulda happened many, many years ago. would have saved a lot of lives.

also, dts, i have to say you continue to amaze. post a feel good story about saddam--why, you feel more compassion, and show more, to a confirmed monster than to your own president. i guess saddam was a liberal...oh, wait, an independant.

As a liberal, I find comparing liberalism to Hussein really offensive. But I guess I should expect that kind of malicious, mindless discourse from a conservative. Oh wait, an independent.

It's pretty clear this course of action in Iraq has made things worse than ever there. There might be a link between our action and the funding of the suicide bombers in Israel at the beginning of this war. This was a serious problem and it has since lessened. Saddam funded many families of the volunteer bombers. Those internal attacks in Israel have almost stopped since this war began. I mean, I really don't know why we are there. At first I supported the WMD thing. It turned out to be a lie and the UN was doing their job.

We want the future Iraq to be an ally in the war on terror. Iran was an ally, Iraq was an ally. Somewhere things went wrong for the USA.

Don't insult me.

I'm a conservative and I didn't compare liberalism to Hussein.

LOL! I think DTS carries the self-flagulation a bit too far, US has made many mistakes but we'll keep trying! The world is better off without Saddam and I fail to see how any rational person would say he was doing what he felt was best for his country...whether the Iraqi people are better off with the mess we've made of their country is another issue entirely!

I'm a conservative as well and would like for us to conserve our money and just nuke the place.
