Remember this? : "ladies and gentlemen...we got him"

[EraOfResponsibility]

I was just thinking back to December 2003, when whoever it was I forget his name used those words to fool people into thinking they caught bin laden when in fact it was Saddam Hussein. I remember how angry I felt at being fooled like that. And yes I knew we went to Iraq earlier that year, but the fact remains I was looking for them to capture bin laden, NOT Saddam Hussein.

1. It was Viceroy Bremer..

What a fucking asshole! Another who should be locked up for war-crimes.

3. for real? what specific war crimes did he commit? eom

[Webster Green]

8. He was a fucking big-shot in an illegal invasion and occupation..

7. More for theft

$millions disappeared. No bid contracts awarded to Cheney and Bush pals. If anything enforced in the mind of Iraqi citizens that this was a hostile take over, it was the asset theft carried out on behalf of US companies by the Interim Administration.

9. Yeah, they looted the U.S. Treasury..

Shrink-wrapped pallet loads of one-hundred dollar bills disappeared.

Oops! :crazy:

2. Even that was a lie.

I don't believe the circumstances of Saddam's capture. He was turned over to the U.S.

4. I remember..........

I love how Cenk uses it on the The Young Turks from time to time. :rofl:

5. What? I was watching TV live and it was obvious this was Saddam we captured

Not sure what you are talking about.

6. Why would you think the head guy for Iraq would be annoucing the capture of UBL?

[cynatnite]

10. I remember being pissed about this...

invading a country, costing countless lives...all for one person.

What a fucking waste.
