| #6 It doesn't need to be a better solution, ryuge, nor even just as good. It just needs to not be George W. Bush's solution. |

| #5 Thanks, Icerigger, I needed a good smile today. If that's corn, then I'll take a bushel! :-) Your link is interesting too, TW: "Shame on you to liken Moqtada al-Sadr to a penguin and humiliate him in front of all the world," says "Wisam" beneath the penguin clip. "It is indeed a shame," agrees "Abdul." "He and his donkeys are far worse than penguins." If Iraqis can maintain a functioning, non-tyrannical government with the freest speech in the Arab world, how will anyone be able to maintain that it would have been better to leave Saddam in place? That's a big "if", of course, but which of Bush's countless critics had a better solution to offer that wouldn't have been just as risky in the long run? |

| #2 The funny part is the reaction of the Iraqis. "These clowns kicked the crap out of the insurgents. How did that happen?" |
