"What the caterpillar calls the end of life, wise men call a butterfly."

Now that Saddam has been captured, it's time to start asking the really tough questions:

Begin by asking some hard questions about Republican administrations' past relationships with Saddam. (Put that photo of Rumsfeld shaking Saddam's hand in 1983 in the news.)

Ask hard questions about former Reaganites now serving in the Bush administration who supported Saddam to the hilt while he was gassing Iranian troops and Kurds.

Find out who authorized the US sale of chemical and biological precursors to Saddam.

Ask questions about the horrible betrayal committed by Bush senior when he stood aside and let Saddam massacre all those Shiites in 1991 after they rose up in response to his call for a popular uprising to overthrow Saddam. The US military could have stopped that massacre in Najaf and Basra. Someone must have told them to let Saddam enjoy his killing fields.

Imagine, Bush administration officials are now actually getting photo ops at the mass graves their predecessors allowed to be filled with bodies!
