#1 I hope they return him to Halabja for a "confrontation" with the scene of his crimes.

One unarmed policeman should be enough to guard him from the crowd, don't you think?

#2 At most. Remember, Sammy got 100% of the vote last time they had an election. The citizenry obviously loves them...

#5 Please don't make them wear shorts. Not only are they grown men, but I hear its cold in Iraq at this time of year.

#7 Kilts, then. Perfectly fine kit for a grown man, and grown men who wear kilts don't complain about the cold (Robbie Burns' day is coming soon, btw).

#8 Just teasing, Raptor. I was trying to hide my ignorance: what are the kind of shorts that you load into a .22?

#10 "I was trying to hide my ignorance: what are the kind of shorts that you load into a .22?"

".22 short" is the designation for extremely light-load .22 caliber ammo. It is truly dinky, and has only enough stopping power to kill an enraged piece of paper or possibly a tin can. Not much good for anything else.

Gotta admire the Bathist GOTV campaign.
