<<< On a recent Sean Hannity radio show, a caller explained to Sean how she looked at her husband when she heard of Hussein's capture and noted how she would always remember that moment. Frozen in time forever, she felt this was a great Christmas present from George W. Bush to our nation. We were all safer now.
She proceeded to explain that after seeing Saddam bedraggled and defeated, all the terrorists would know that it wasn't really true what Saddam had been saying to them, about those 72 virgins who would be waiting.
Sean didn't bother to correct the caller with the fact that Saddam wasn’t directing any terrorists that attacked the United States. It also seems unlikely, from his latest hiding place and his inability to access a friendly barber, that he was in productive communication with any of the Iraqi Ba-athists, nationalists or other angry folks in the region who are taking deadly potshots at our sons and daughters.

Sean didn't bother mentioning that Saddam wasn't an Islamist, or even a good Muslim. It is well known among radio talk show hosts that Saddam was a secular Marxist dictator, who, like Stalin, used religion only when necessary to prevent total collapse of his dictatorship.

And lastly, Sean didn't remind the caller that the capture of Saddam did not contribute to the goal of making America safer. We are as safe from Iraq-supported terrorism and Iraqi WMD as we were a year ago when Saddam called Jerry Bremer's new palaces home. The threat of WMD and terrorism after Saddam's capture is identical to that of a year ago. Negligible then as now, it was not worth the life of one American soldier, let alone 458. >>>
