Check out the latest from Riverbend. Cover Saddam sentence. Just read it.
Just a taste from the last paragraph. Fantastic stuff

A final note. I just read somewhere that some of the families of dead American soldiers are visiting the Iraqi north to see ‘what their sons and daughters died for’. If that’s the goal of the visit, then, “Ladies and gentlemen- to your right is the Iraqi Ministry of Oil, to your left is the Dawry refinery… Each of you get this, a gift bag containing a 3 by 3 color poster of Al Sayid Muqtada Al Sadr (Long May He Live And Prosper), an Ayatollah Sistani t-shirt and a map of Iran, to scale, redrawn with the Islamic Republic of South Iraq. Also… Hey you! You- the female in the back- is that a lock of hair I see? Cover it up or stay home.”

And that is what they died for.

1. That's really sad and depressing
:cry: While in some states we're squabbling over non issues the most important issue is Iraq. People are dying and are being abused and that should be the ONLY issue!
