Here's what he said: How are we any better? We have killed 100,000 people, and there are graphic pictures all over the web of our butchery as well. Both the US and Saddam have engaged in the mass murder of Iraqi civilians for political purposes connected with gaining control over Iraq's oil. His mass murder is over, ours just beginning. We no longer can claim any moral superiority over this butcher - we have tortured people in the same prisons he did and murdered innocent Shiites just like he did, we invaded another country that was no threat to us just like Saddam did, we declare martial law, outlaw political parties, shutdown newspapers, restrict free spech, just like he did. We have become a pariah in this world as a result, just like he was. I see nothing but national shame coming out of the Iraq War. I see no difference between Saddam Hussein and George Bush. They both wage unnecesary war, and they are both blood soaked butchers, and they both are on their way to hell as they both claim justification from God.


Here's what I said: What does it say of a person's judgement that he sees no difference between an elected, term-limited leader of a democratic country and a self-appointed (oh wait, 99% of Iraq voted for Saddam, I forgot!), mass-murdering, expansionist dictator who threw political opponents into acid vats and limb chippers.

He said what he said. I pointed it out. Okay, explain the insult.

Anybody?
