You think Bush is the American equivalent to Saddam Hussein?

A general letter to those who believe that President Bush is the American equivalent to Saddam Hussein;

First, Saddam made an effort to have an AMERICAN court stay his execution. Odd, isn't it, that in his moment of crisis, Hussein had more hope in the United States than Cindy Sheehan, et al, have.

Second, you don't like Bush? Fine - just wait a year. He's goin' bye-bye, according to the Constitution of the United States. There will be an election and every single registered voter in the United States will have an opportunity to have his or her say. When Bush DOES go he will go peacefully, just as did Mr. Clinton, Mr. Bush, Mr. Reagan, etc., etc., etc., before him.

Third, this is America, friends, land of the free and home of the brave. This is America, where the rule of law applies to everyone equally. The system NEVER fails us; it is corrupt people within the system, liberal and conservative alike, who fail us. So, GO to Iran, GO to North Korea, build a time machine and GO back to Iraq during Saddam's reign of terror, and just try to disagree with the leader. They'll be sending your head home in a hat box.

Fourth, this is America! That means that we defend the rights of every single citizen to say just about anything he wants. Under Saddam's control, the Iraqi version of Cindy Sheehan would have been gang-raped and executed in some incredibly brutal fashion. Here she has police protection.

So, I have two messages for those of you who are terrified that America will someday "rule the world."

First - we don't want to. We want sovereign nations to rule themselves. Thus, Iraq has a sovereign government, and we haven't taken out Kim and freed North Korea. That doesn't mean that if they prove a credible threat we won't. It just means that we really do prefer that they solve their own problems.

Second, the world would be infinitely better off with American justice, values, and attitudes. Oops - did I offend someone? Gee, sorry. Can you name ONE other country that has the kind of illegal immigration problem the US has? Of course not! And our problems come from being both easy to get along with (we don't execute illegals here), and the best possible place on earth to call home. Or, did I miss the huge international rush to get into Syria?

On his last words...

My wife mentioned that this is a quote from the 13th Warrior
"There is no God but God and Mohammad is his prophet"
I know Saddam was never religious, citing his Quran written in Blood and many other obvious reasons. I am betting he was a fan of the movie!

They asked Saddam if he had plans for the weekend, he said "I am just going to hang around and chill."

Makes a great Christmas side dish!

Why do they keep sending me the magazine after I canceled? How does a network card for $200+ dollars make your broadband better?

What is it?
