It would be different if Bush were any better than Saddam, if the Iraqis were any better off, if they were free instead of having foreign troops running the country.

If Bush weren't trying to make a puppet out of Iraq, have a permanent military presence, control their resources.

Then one could really celebrate.

"Down with the tryant, long live the tryant!" The more things change the more they stay the same, or get worse.
