Did This Paper Just Make a Statement About Bush & Sadam's Handgun?
Is this happening anywhere else?

Yesterday's local paper ran a story on P.9, a short one, titled, "Bush's War Trophy: Saddam's Handgun."

Notice the use of "War Trophy."

Just above it, was a picture captioned, "Singer Entertains Troops."
Toby Keith talking to a soldier at Landstuhl Regional Medical Facility, Germany.

The soldier has a patch over his left eye, a cast on his left arm, a cast on his right foot and leg, and his left leg propped up on a stand- footless. It's pretty obvious what he's "received" due to the war. :mad:

I just found the positioning of the two stories interesting. I hope the paper's implied inference was the difference between the soldier and Bush's "trophies."
