Field Negro: Now What?

"O death where is thy sting? O grave where is thy victory?" ~1 Corinthians 15:55~

The "butcher of Baghdad" is history. Yes folks, right around 10:00 PM EST on December 29,2006, the bearded one went to hook up with some virgins in paradise-or so he thinks- compliments of a very big rope and some Shiite hangmen. So now comes my question; was it worth 3,000 American lives, thousands and thousands of Iraqi lives, and billions of our hard earned dollars? That was a rhetorical question. Of course it wasn't. And giving an evil son of a bi**h his just deserts compliments of a hangman's fancy noose does not make my answer to that question any different.

It's worth repeating here; Saddam was a bad man, and I for one am not shedding any tears over his death. But what was he convicted and ultimately hung for? Well it seems he killed 148 Shiite men at a place called Dujail for plotting his death. So he did what any despot who wants to hold on to power by any means would do; he killed them. Mmmmm, if we use that moral standard, I would have to take a serious look at the frat boy as well. I mean, isn't one of his real motivations for going after Saddam that fact that the man tried to have his father assassinated? Talk about payback. -Vengeance is mine sayeth the frat boy. That will teach him to mess with the Bush family. Seriously folks, I would have wanted Saddam dead too, but not at the cost of 3,000 of my own people. I think the frat boy took this payback sh** a bit too far.
