Can these two be counted as "WMD"?

Car can't choose where it's built.

I think you got us there, though a smart car would have gone kaput on the Husseins long before it made it to their final resting place :-)

If Uday and Qwasay (s?) are indeed hoooking up with Mohammed as we speak, I couldn't be happier about that,

But who is to say that this won't fire up the pro-Saddam sympathizers; they now have two martyrs to inspire them

Despite Snowe's apparent liberal bent, there are reasons why she is a Republican and not a Democrat. I suspect a big reason is that she doesn't want anything to do with a Party that incessantly lies to the American people.

Just a stern warning to the Germans to run away from the French and get our side. You just fire a few high powered rounds into a BMW and take pictures of it.

Every BMX exec and stock holder got the meaning of that picture.

Multiple sources saying specific Intelligence form a local Iraqi saying that the brothers were in this house -- had the intelligence for a number of hours. 101st and Task Force 20 -- elite special forces and CIA operatives.

Read my comment #138 on this subject. If it is the sons, the job for our troops just got exponentially easier.

Keep posting! My dang Road Runner is cutting in and out -- of all days!

Must be a left-wing conspiracy to try to force you to watch CNN :-P (you'll know it is a conspiracy if FoxNews cuts in and out at the same time).

Thanks, I know that he works and is news void during the day. I usually ping him when we get one of the cards, and this time I just forgot to.

"A local Iraqi provided the Intelligence on where the sons were at to the Task Force 20 people. Some Iraqi is about to become very rich!"

DOH! Oh well. Money well spent.

Uday and Qusay

Proof that Piglatin really is a universal language.

U.S. officials were examining the bodies of two men killed in a shootout in the northern city Mosul on Tuesday to see if they are Saddam Hussein's sons Odai and Qusai

I hope these posters are placed where the adults of Iraq can see them. I don't want the kids to be traumatized by them, but I want their parents to understand that these monsters will never again be in charge of things in their country again, and that they can raise their children in a free country!

Do not believe that the Clinton DemocRAT Party is having a very good day.

I have a gut feeling that this raid was the result of some reliable info from a Iraqi wanting to see the end of these two mass murderers.

If so, he/she/they deserve every dollar they will get.

These POS clingons need to experience same fear and pain they subjected their victims to for so many years. Don't enjoy letting tyrants off easy like this if they indeed were killed in this fight.....

They said the firefight lasted four hours, so Saddam's spawn must have spent a lot of time cowering in terror before being killed. It's not much, but it will suffice.

I just hope there are enough parts left to put a couple of heads on poles. The rest of the bodies can be put through Saddam's plastic shredders, even though they're already dead.

Thank you for the proper spelling of "clingon" in this case. Admirers of Klingons know that it would have been an obscene slur to link their noble race to the gaggle of saddamites.
