Bush hails verdict as milestone for Iraq
By DEB RIECHMANN, Associated Press Writer
6 minutes ago


WACO, Texas - President Bush said Sunday that Saddam Hussein's conviction was a signature achievement for Iraq's fledgling democracy.

Bush called the verdict "a milestone in the Iraqi people's efforts to replace the rule of a tyrant with the rule of law."

snip...
"It's a major achievement for Iraq's young democracy and its constitutional government," the president said at the airport before flying to Nebraska and Kansas on a campaign swing for Republican candidates two days before congressional elections.

"The man who once struck fear in the hearts of Iraqis had to listen to free Iraqis recount the acts of torture and murder that he ordered against their families and against them," Bush said in brief remarks.

snip...
"Today, the victims of this regime have received a measure of the justice which many thought would never come," Bush said.

2. $500 billion spent and 3,000 dead Americans

in a destroyed and occupied country in which tens of thousands have likewise been killed and million other crimes have been perpetrated since war began...and all this to execute one man, and that in turn just to satisfy one other moron's vanity.

That's the bottom line on Iraq, isn't it?

Too bad the blivet doesn't have to do the same - sit and LISTEN to how he has ruined this country.
