Saddam
What can I say that hasn’t already been said? Saddam’s capture is a great thing for the Iraqi people, and a great thing for our troops. I hope he’s tried by Iraqis or by a world court, and not by the U.S. But the inescapable fact is: Saddam captured alive + no shots fired = A Good Thing.
At the same time, I hate the thought of the political hay that the Bushies will make of capturing a man who had nothing to do with the War on Terror (if we even know what that is anymore).
But that’s OK. My friend Lisa says it’s all right for me to have mixed feelings about this. And I trust Lisa’s advice in all things.
