How convenient...did Gregory let her get away with that? Tim Russert would have reminded her of the mushroom cloud arguments they made during the run up.

Actually, what I said is not quite right -- she did bring up the fact that Saddam previously had WMD and had used them repeatedly on his own people. So, there was a passing mention.

She pointed out that what we have done is to fundamentally reorganize the Middle East, the root of almost all terrorism. She further explained that Iran has NOT, as the media and the Left claimed been empowered, and pointed to the FACT that in spite of Iran "pulling out all the stops", they were unable to stop the agreement between us and Iraq. She also pointed out that Bush is totally unconcerned about the short-run bashing he is receiving because he believes (correctly, IMO) that in the long run people will come to understand that our reconfiguration of the Middle East was an essential response to the terrorist attacks of 9/11. And finally, she pointed out that Saddam had committed genocide and that we stopped it.

Would the world be better off today if Saddam were still in office?
