U.S. tries to trip up Saddam

Saddam was a bad guy and should face justice? I certainly think so. But I'm just a private citizen and I base my opinions on news that I see on TV filtered by who knows who.

It kind of bothers me that Bush, "the leader of the free world", already passed judgement on Saddam by saying that he deserves "the ultimate penalty". I think it'd be a lot more appropriate if he just said that he deserves to face international justice or something like that.

Oh, and this reminds me when Bush replied not so long ago to some reporter that freedom is beautiful, that he loves freedom... Then I wonder what did he think of his own government's policies on steel imports and subsidies to the farmers?

Yeah, the man sure loves freedom... but only when it's the kind of freedom that helps him win more votes, huh?
