This should be enough, by itself, to take this bastard out. And not becaue it was George W. Bush. Even if it had been Jimmy Carter, the attempted assassination of a current or former US president by another country should be seen as an act of war.

Yes sir. You nailed it. The history lesson / facts should be read to Congress. Then let the voting begin!

We should FReep Rush, Sean Hannity, Walter Williams and Roger Hedgecock so that they know this needs to come out on their radio talk shows.... I can't get to Sean's site right now. I'll try later.

Thank you for posting this. I had heard of the story, but not any details.

Four hundred yard lethal radius? Seems a bit optimistic.

Anyway this should have been a proximate of cause to go after Saddam.

"He inadvertently forgot that he had been asked that specific question about normalization and he regrets denying that it was asked," said Stephanopoulos.

This one sentence totally sums up the entirety of the Clinton Presidency. Any FReepers looking to hire a master editor? Look how concise I can make the above statement:

Whoops! Sorry!

This ain't just business, this is personal...

This would explain Bush's obsession with getting Saddam. In the meantime, our borders are wide open and the enemy walks right in.

I would want to nuke any country that would make that SOB a martyr.

I read on FR that Saddam's favorite movie is "The Godfather" ... when I read that, I remembered what the son of Don Corleone did to those who tried to kill his father and realized why another fact said that "Saddam is scared of G W Bush" ... SADDAM SHOULD KNOW THE ENDING.

The problem Saddam had was he didn't really understand us.

Nor did he understand what we are willing to do when it comes down to it. You see, Bush Jr. knows how to handle Saddam and his brats. And the old scores are going to be settled, all right...

Saddam should have just left it at business. Now, he's ticked off a guy who makes Don Corleone looks like a friendly puppy dog.
