Boy, after Saddam Hussein is turned over to the new, democratic Iraqi government, wouldn't that suck if he were rehabilitated and elected president?
Also, I have a question, since I do not have a television and have only read about the event: when "President" Bush II made his "Mission Accomplished" appearance on that aircraft carrier a year ago, he climbed out of that airplane, right? Was he represented as actually having piloted it himself, or was it clear that he was merely a passenger? Because his security guys wouldn't really let him actually fly an airplane, would they?
