Who can you trust bush or Saddam?

Sadly our country and the world has learned bush is lest honest and trustworthy the Saddam Hussain.

Saddam was indeed a ruler with a heavy, arrogant hand, but the evils ascribed to him were merely the pnac propoganda machine, it now appears.

I'm not at all sure that it's true. Perhaps in his own way, you may think that Bush is as bad, sending a thousand men to die over a personal vendetta. But if you look at the history of Saddam Hussein, I believe he tended to have people rounded up and executed.

I personally hate what has happened under the Bush administration. But that type of comparison doesn't help get him out of office. Saying that you consider Saddam Hussein more trustworthy than Bush just sides you with a ruthless dictator... sympathizing with Hussein doesn't win votes...

Whether the Iraqi people are better off with their country occupied, in civil war, and still without freedom is impossible to know. I suspect the merchant who just went about his daily business thinks things were better before. The mothers who have lost their children liked it better before. The women who now have to cover themselves and wear veils may have felt more freedom before.

We do know that this administration is secretly kidnapping people around the world and not returning them. We know that the guarantees of the constitution no longer apply here in America. We know that verifiable elections are a thing of the past in many parts of the country.

It isn't a long slide from where we are to where Saddam ended up.

I said trust. Remember prior to the invasion the world and our country was at a "who do you believe moment". bush said Saddam had WMDs and was lying. Saddam said he had no WMDs and bush was lying. Turns out the facts show the world and our nation shoud have trusted and believed Saddam, not george bush.

While bush was telling lies about Saddam, it turns out Saddam was telling the TRUTH. He said he didn't have any WMDs and bush was lying. He said bush was lying so he could invade his country. No matter how you try to spin it, bush lied and Saddam told the truth.

at least bush hasn't been able to get away with exterminations (yet)

bush has the troops targetting civilians these days. As that reporter from Palastine, oh wait... Never mind.
