So Tom - we should listen to you rather than Riverbend when it comes to life in Iraq before and after Saddam?

Amazing twisting of things....
"There is a certain type of person who thrives under a tyranny. Who doesn't mind people being taken away in the night, as long as it isn't him."
That could almost be about a lot of people of the American Right.
