Iraq better off under Saddam, says Blix

If anybody has the right to say "I told you so," it's Hans Blix.

1. The voice of sanity and reason
Iraq is in chaos, our kids are being slaughtered on a daily basis, Al Qaeda is getting stronger, our Army is being grind into the sand and republicans want to scare us about gay marriage.

Thanks for Speaking out Hans Blix.

Under Clinton's watch, the WMD was identified and done away with.

3. Well Saddam is still alive, set him free and see if order can be restored
....Wasn't he an operative of George H.W. Bush once upon a long time ago?

4. He spoke the truth before the war, and no one in the adm. listened.

They could care less what anyone in the world cared or said. Dick Taters don't listen to rationale thought.

I think Mr. Blix is saying what a lot of Americans are thinking. WE, of course, would be called traitors by our own government for voicing such concerns.

5. And now it's been all but admitted that we would gladly settle...
...for replacing him with a similar "strong man" to assure "stability" in Iraq and that this could be considered some sort of "victory". Irony really is lost on those pathetic thugs.
