Bush is now less popular than Saddam Hussein. Compare what sadam did to the Iraqi people to what has happened there since Bush-Cheney invaded without a plan. Who hurt Iraqis worse? And wouldn't we love to have a non-Islamic strongman in charge now who could cack heads and keep law and order? Even if he was corrupt and a jerk? Lesser of two evils perhaps. So hanging Saddam isn't going to accomplish anything. Also remember, Saddam was Reagan-Bush-Rummy's buddy until 1991. He was their guy. They armed him. They also illegally sent arms to Iran. Armed both sides. Also Saddam is a Sunni, just like GW's pals in Saudi Arabia who now side with Saddam's people. Bush admitted in 2001 before 9-11 that Saddam was in a box and was not a threat. Then in 2002 he started trumping his his campaign of lies and exaggerations to get us into that war. Some 4000 Americans have died as a result plus 20,000+ wounded, heading toward a trillion dollars wasted and the Middle East is in turmoil. Who hurt us worse, Bush or Saddam? Easy. Bush did. Much worse.
