This is slightly off the discussion, but is on topic. Am I the only one that thought it was extremely awesome that Saddam looked like shit? I mean, seriously. Normally you see he guy in his beret and moustache, a bit reminiscent of Hitler, but now he looks like an aging homeless guy... which, I guess for all intents and purposes, he's homeless.
I'd like to mention something though... Saddam will be better off and probably live longer in the custody of the United States. We're about the most humane country when it comes to prisoners. Sometimes, too humane in my estimation. But he'll get fed, get sleep, basically he'll be healthier than if he was running away.
And my guess is that the next response will come from someone who doesn't like Bush or the US government and will spout out evidence that we're inhumane in treating prisoners or that we're borderline genocidal or some crap. Or I'm sure Vietnam will be brought up at some point... or whatever angle someone can use against a country they undeservedly bash.
