Bush blames Iraq's instability on Hussein

Wednesday, March 29, 2006; Posted: 1:46 p.m. EST (18:46 GMT)
President Bush said Wednesday that Saddam Hussein, not continued U.S. involvement in Iraq, is responsible for ongoing sectarian violence that is threatening the formation of a democratic government.
...............
Bush said that Saddam was a tyrant and used violence to exacerbate sectarian divisions to keep himself in power, and that as a result, deep tensions persist to this day.

"The enemies of a free Iraq are employing the same tactics Saddam used, killing and terrorizing the Iraqi people in an effort to foment sectarian division," Bush said.

3. Whosajiggawha?!
When I read that on CNN I actually had to stop and re-read the first paragraph 3 times because my mind was actually going into a cramp over the sheer stupidity of that statement. I was actually dumb founded!

4. And yet, he is responsible for keeping Saddam in Iraq...
rather than taking him to The Hague to be tried for War Crimes.

Gee, I wonder why? :eyes:
