This statement implies that you believe we (the world and our country) would be at least as well off were Saddam returned to power.

This pathetic question shows the desperation of those trying to defend invading iraq. It's a cheap, superficial way to defend what we did. How can one defend leaving saddam in power? You can't anymore than you can kim jong il, or mugabe, or any number of tin pot dictators around the globe. But when you consider more broadly what we did there, how we did it, and the consequences world wide, then your'e doing a proper job of discussing the matter...and you come back with different conclusions as do most experts today. But that wouldn't fit your ideology would it?

I don't think it would have mattered one way or another.
