Saddam : "Down with Bush"....
Saddam launches courtroom tirade as trial resumes 5 minutes ago

BAGHDAD (AFP) - A fiery Saddam Hussein is back in court after boycotting his trial on charges of crimes against humanity, but said he had been forced to appear.

"Down with the traitor, down with traitors, down with Bush.. long live the ummah (Islamic nation)... long live the ummah..long live the ummah..," roared the ousted Iraqi dictator as soon as he arrived in court on Monday.

"I was forced into the courtroom," Saddam angrily told chief judge Rauf Rasheed Abdel Rahman.

Barzan al-Tikriti, his half-brother and former secret police chief, frequently interrupted the session as guards were seen pushing him down into his seat in the dock.

2. Unfortunately, we've been making him look good.

Electricity worse now, water worse now, jobs worse now, medical worse now, living conditions worse now, terrorism where there never was previously. Abu Ghraib. Kidnapping women & kids to force men to turn themselves in. Disappearing people. Killing people. Dropping bombs still going on 4 years later.

And the hatred towards us (and level of attacks against our troopws) just keeps rising.

The Greatest Nation Ever can't even supply the same amount of electricity as Hussein did 6 weeks after the 1991 Gulf War.

Isn't making us look good at all. Any wonder we're the butt of the world's jokes?

THANK YOU BUSH! You MFing imbecile.
