Meh, you beat me to it. Yeah I woke up this morning and CNN was on. They were acting like everybody in Iraq was going to be all joyous about it, but I'm sure there are going to be some attacks in the near future from supporters. __________________ "...it speaks deceit, and I am honest!

When I first saw this thread, all I saw was miniplayer and hundreds of forums asking whether it's true. Usually this means the news is either extremely fresh or it's a rumour. I then checked the major news sites and they pretty much confirmed the whole thing.

actually I think the chance we find Osama back is slightly bigger than a bong's chance in the possession of the Gorillaz crew. __________________ rationalist · metalhead · perfectionist · godless · happy«I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.» -J.R.R.

Bush didn't capture Saddam, a soldier did. Anyways, when I first woke up and turned on the news, I saw this scruffy-looking guy with a beard that looked like he just woke up so I screamed, Dad, what did they do to you?!?! Then my mother called and told me they captured Saddam and I was like oh __________________ People think it's easy being a super genius, but they don't understand how hard it is to put up with all the idiots in the world."Liberals like weed and hallucinogens.

Ya gotta wonder how they actually know this is Sadaam. After all, he did have what, 20 guys who looked exactly like him in every way.

that's not what the masses think like.

Well, as of right now, Bush would probably be a bit more impressive than the Democratic candidates I've seen. I still go with third party. NUKE 'EM ALL! :-P

Before the Spin Brigade(tm) commences: Democrats are glad the tyrant will no longer be a threat to his people and that they hope and trust this will be a positive step toward peace and stability for the Iraqi people. Frankly, they should shut up and let events unfold. There will be plenty of time to go on the offensive and remind people of the illegality of this war, of Bush's lies, and whatever else needs to be said. Now is not the time.

Finding Sadaam definitely makes up for all the lives we destroyed and all the soldiers who died trying to find him.It was inevitable anyway, I just figured he'd be dead by the time we found him.

I'm sorry, but anyone who thinks that this is a bad thing can go choke on their own organs and die. I think it's awesome. It needed to be done, so lay off of Bush. You'd have been happy if that SOB had been captured too. Thanks.Rogue_leader87 EDIT: spelling __________________ Keep a great thing alive-Sign your toploadersI collect signed cards. Got any extras?
