| Saddam Does The Hippy Hippy Shake |
| 2004-06-30 |
| Via FARK. Iraqis used to dance to his tune, but in Baghdad toy shops a chubby, gun-toting Saddam Hussein doll now wiggles his hips to the "Hippy Hippy Shake." Toy stores around Baghdad are doing a quick trade in dancing Saddam dolls -- foot-high battery-powered puppets of the former president, kitted out in full insurgent regalia, who swing their hips to cheesy pop music at the flick of a switch. Decked out with hand-grenades, daggers, a walkie-talkie, binoculars and an AK-47, Saddam dances to the "Hippy Hippy Shake" when turned on. "It’s funny, isn’t it?" said Mustapha al-Kadamy, a young father as he browsed through a toy store in the wealthy Mansoor district and prepared to buy one of the dancing Saddams. "Tomorrow Saddam will go before an Iraqi judge and so today is a good day to make fun of him -- we need to be able to smile after all the horrible things he’s done to us." In spite of all this we still have in our midst self-righteous assholes like the Boston Globe’s resident moonbat racist, Derrick Z. Jackson blaming Bush for everything under the sun except for foot fungus. |

| #1 OK, Raj, I give up. Why isn't Bush blamed for foot fungus? |
