<snip>BAGHDAD (AFP) - Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) is alive in Iraq (news - web sites), and "his capture or his killing is our top priority," US civil administrator Paul Bremer said.


"We believe that Saddam is alive, is in Iraq, and his capture or his killing is our top priority," Bremer told a news conference here.


"We stil have no clear indication if Saddam himself is behind these attacks," Bremer said in a reference to the upsurge of bombings and killings.

<snip>"Saddam Hussein or others may want to hurt Iraq with bombings and rumours, but today's paralysis proves that the Americans are so far failing to protect and rebuild Iraq."

8. Was it Saddam or OBL that Bush was
talking about when he said it was no longer important that they be captured?

3. WooHoo!


You da bomb, Georgie! You go for da high visibility, happy touchie-feelie PR crapola.

Forget the sick people, the non-existent sanitation, the murders, the rape, and the torture of the Iraqis. Forget the troops dying everyday.

We gotta make "Find Saddam" the number one game show!

4. Bremer's top priority should be doing the job of administrating
the civil duties he was appointed to do, although he might have to spend most of his time protecting his sorry 'never you mind' from those Iraqis who have no admiration for his role in this farce.

6. Stupid f--ing idiots!!!
Still trying to appeal to Americans affinity for "High Noon" drama, while Iraq gets out of control. All smoke and mirrors fed to a gullible public.

9. Not yet. Bremer hasn't got the message.
The plan is to capture Saddam in about say 10-11 months. Right before the election....

13. Brave, bold Bremer - oh, he'll get Saddam!
Sure! With the Fearless Preppie Colonial Administrator on the job, it's a done deal.

14. Capture my A$$
Kill is what they mean. They only say "Capture" because they don't want to look like the cold calculating criminals they are.

If Saddam is captured and put on trial, this administration would likely end up in handcuffs. Same goes for Osama.

Look for the gruesome death pictures of Saddam sometime around October
of next year.

Can't leave him around to take over the racket again.

16. Osama still Been Missing since 9-11
and people, let's not forget it was Osama NOT Saddam who was responsible for 9-11.
Why hasn't Georgie-Boy (the "chosen one") mentioned Osama in two years?

Actually, when was the last time "the chosen one" even spoke Saddam's name other than to blame the Iraq failure on his suppoeters?
