Items confiscated during the raid include two AK-47 rifles, a pistol, $750,000.00 U.S. dollars and one white/orange taxi. Two other individuals who have not been identified were also detained.

No one was injured in the operation. Saddam appears in good health and is undergoing further evaluation.

One more, from CENTCOM.

God bless our troops!

I just saw a snippet of the reaction by John F'n Kerry, on Fox; just when we thought we'd reached our limit on despising Frenchy, he outdoes himself.

Good ol' John F'n Kerry. A f'n idiot regardless of the news. At least he's consistent.

BUH BY, scumbag!

A pretty good day for Planet Earth:

1) Hussein is now a caged animal;

2) The Europeans (esp. the French) must be shiiting bricks, knowing that we have the ultimate source regarding their dealings with Hussein;

3) I'm sure that Dasshole is "deeply saddened," and

4) The Dems are in a total panic, esp. those running for President.

Remember this day - you should tell you grandchildren about it.
