Yay! I love it when there's good news in war time.
Saddam's sons, apparently, are dead.
This makes me very, very happy.
But it is a sort of horseshoes-n-hand grenades scenario. We want daddy, and that other fucker from Afghanistan whose name I'm having trouble recalling in the year and a half since he "disappeared." And we don't have daddy . . . or that other fucker from Afghanistan whose name I'm having trouble recalling.
I'm kidding, of course, but it speaks to the point that the less Osama or Usama or Youmamma or Whateverthefuckhelikestospellitas stays in the news, the less it matters if we have him.
And I still think that's important; the images of their respective corpses on the world news.
But Saddam's sons were murderous brats, so the world is a better place today.
I suddenly have The Who running through my head . . . "I was born with a bloody spoon in myyyyyyyyyyyy mouth . . . . "
