Sadaam has upstaged
Michael Jackson and Kobe Bryant. What the hell is this world coming to? I just got out of bed at 10:30 am Sunday, turn on TV and thought I heard wrong that he was captured so had to nearly burst my bladder to hear if I heard correctly. Ok why turn him in so far ahead of the election 04?

1. This is one story the bush admin had no control over
They're kicking themselves in the ass right now for having embedded reporters.

3. Playing the Saddam Card
I was thinking along the same lines as candy. It's too early for this to be decisisive. It's good for Bush, no doubt, but lots of things can go wrong in ten months. I doubt he was in charge of any of the attacks, which will continue, cause they're not about Saddam, they are about self-determination by Iraqi's.

4. They need him to confess
that he DID have weapond of mass destruction
and that he DID hang out with Osama
and that he IS controlling the attacks on US troops in Iraq.

In other words, the NEED a damn scapegoat.
And that Richard Libertini look-alike from Central Casting is it.

5. Same question as ever: Now what? 
Extradition? To where? What charge? By whom?  Nuclear weapons?
WMD's? Shia insurgency? Kurdish republic? (The Kurds sent a
delegation to Versailles in 1919.)
