<<I think Mike was imagining liberals who would kiss Saddam,>>

What I believe Mike was thinking was when many liberals were calling to stop the sanctions and no fly zones in Iraq. Let things go back to before Gulf War One and trust Saddam to do the right thing because 100,000 Iraqi babies were dying every year.

I've never seen anyone, conservative or liberal, say anything remotely like that, even allowing for the hyperbole of "utopia".

I agree. The closest I can think of occurred in an exchange between jlallen and myself. I pointed out that Reagan and Bush Sr. supported Saddam while he was slaughtering the Iraqis and Iranians and jlallen said that supporting Saddam was the right thing to do at the time. jlallen, always the faithfull conservative.
