Who's the Bigger Moron - George W. Bush or Saddam Hussein?

We all know that George Bush, Inc. is shaking in its jackboots at the thought of Saddam Hussein testifying freely and openly during a trial broadcast live around the world. Hussein possesses secrets that could destroy the reputations of Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush and Donald Rumsfeld, among others, and fuel even more anti-U.S. hatred around the world.

So why didn't the big dummy record these secrets, make several copies, and use them as a weapon before and during Gulf War II? He could have made world headlines with the statement, "If the United States attacks Iraq, my administration will release classified information that is highly embarrassing to the United States in general and to the Republican Party in particular. A new chapter will be released during every day of the war."

But Saddam didn't use his most vicious weapon, and there's apparently no evidence that records have been preserved that are safe from the U.S. Gestapo. Can you spell S-T-U-P-I-D?

Still, there are certainly other Iraqi officials who have knowledge of some of these scandals. And there are certainly people in other nations who have knowledge of similar scandals.

Isn't it amazing how such dark, powerful secrets can remain... well, secret?

Of course, this is presumably one of the reasons U.S. forces are such bastards, detaining people in solitary confinement with no contact with attorneys or loved ones. They don't want them to share their secrets with the world.

I just find it utterly amazing that foreign leaders are such children when it comes to propaganda. They have enormous powers over the U.S. that they don't exploit.

This post is utter crap. It is nothing but fodder for those on the right that claim Democrats "hate America." Democrats WILL NOT WIN with apologists for Saddam Hussein posting CRAP like this post. Poor, Saddam, just didn't use the right tactics against the United States.
Saddam = Good
America = Bad
Losing arithmetic for 2004.

I often wonder what staff member of Rush Limbaugh's has signed up to post things to make DU look absurd.

"This post is utter crap. It is nothing but fodder for those on the right that claim Democrats "hate America."

Baloney, my post is pure wisdom. If you're still held hostage by the folk wisdom that hating Republicans is synonymous with hating America and can and will therefore be exploited by right-wingers, then you're just another anchor.

"Democrats WILL NOT WIN with apologists for Saddam Hussein posting CRAP like this post. Poor, Saddam, just didn't use the right tactics against the United States."

I'm not an apologist for Saddam, nor do I pity him. I've stated in earlier posts my belief that he deserves the death penalty.

I stated a simple FACT - that Saddam could have fought the Republicans - which do not equate with America - with propaganda, based on the secrets he possesses.

I also think it would be GOOD if Saddam had used this strategy, for Republicans - even if not as evil as Saddam - are by far the bigger menace to the United States and to the world at large. That simple truth ought to be perfectly obvious to anyone who follows current events.

Saddam = Good
America = Bad

It looks like you've been studying fuzzy math under George Bush. Try THIS equation:

Saddam = Evil
Republicans = Evil
Saddam + Republicans in Bed Together
A Winning Formula for 2004 and beyond.

"I often wonder what staff member of Rush Limbaugh's has signed up to post things to make DU look absurd."

I often wonder the same thing.

I find both of them morons.

free reign in their inspecting duties, if Hussein really had no WMD. That would've put off the trouble from the U.S. Why did he play games with the inspectors, courting disaster, when he didn't have WMD or much an army? He could've stayed in power and lived to make WMD another day, in a few years. It doesn't make sense. He's nutso.

Bush is dumb as dirt.

They've both built a political career on being dumb as rocks.

As for Saddam Hussein - his stupidity was thumbing his nose at the Bushes and neocons while sitting atop the second largest oil reserves in the world.. and having a strategic location in Iraq on the persian gulf and in the heart of the Mideast.
