The Blue Balls of the Butcher of Baghdad*
Or: What Would Qusay or Uday Do?
Or: Simonaze The Floor Wit' 'Em

Perhaps the previous post regarding Red Brigade style justice for Simona Pari and Simona Torretta was intemperate. Perhaps chastened by the media coverage of abuses at Abu Ghraib, the U.S. should consider its treatment of Saddam. Is he in solitary confinement? Does he pine for no more than the sound of a human scream? He probably can't give us anything in the way of contrition or intelligence that would justify his release, but maybe for good behaviour he could be given some smokes, Viagra, and the comraderie of Simona e Simona -in say, one of the old rumpus rooms.

*"Butcher of Baghdad" see "Hot Shots Part Deux" starring Charlie Sheen-great scene where Topper Harley momentarily stops his duel with Saddam to answer a cordless phone with "Butcher of Baghdad!" and then covers for him by telling his wife that he's out on an errand.
And given that Kerry has both set virtually impossible to meet conditions for invading another country *and* promised to "hunt down and kill terrorists wherever they are.." we might be treated to something like Hot Shot's "rescue the rescuers of the rescuers of hostages being held by Saddam Hussein" after some Jimmy Carteresque Desert Disasters.
