5. why would they hold saddam to blame

there were no bombings in Iraq before the US occupied it. More Iraqis have died under Bush's occupation than in the last 10 years under saddam.

10. Saddam probably has less cupability, as you state. Plus sanctions...

that took upwards of 1/2 million Iraqi children & women & men.
Blame Bush, please. Only Bush's neocons, at this point, can help the situation in Iraq. Unless we revolt here in the U.S.

6. But we are winning the war on terror

Just ask this kid.

But maybe instead of a war, he'd rather have leaders who give a shit about him, and who fight POVERTY, HUNGER and FRUSTRATION with schools and hospitals and medicine and other peaceful pursuits?

If this is "winning hearts and minds" I would rather be losing...

3. Ain't we luckie duckies that major combat operations are over though and
