Rumor Mill Is Abuzz With Saddam Sightings

<snip>
Some of the rumors stoke the mythic ideal of Saddam — a cult of personality created by his regime and still thriving in this northern city.

According to one, a hungry and ragged Saddam knocked on the door of a poor Bedouin family in the ancient village of Hadhar and asked for food.

The hosts, unaware who their guest was, ranted about how bad things had become since the U.S. occupation. "Do you wish Saddam were back?" the guest asks the woman. When she said she did, he told her:

"I am Saddam. When I leave this house, tell people that Saddam was in my house."

On edit: Worth 1000 Where's Saddam? Photoshop contest link: http://www.worth1000.com/cache/gallery/contestcache.asp?contest_id=1533&display=photoshop There are some very good and pretty funny photoshops here and well worth a look.

2. That's one step away from the woman washing the feet of the
stranger coming to her door.

The mythos that is being created by our creation of the Twenty-five Million Dollar Man may very well come back and bite Bushco on the ass.
