Duncan Posted June 27, 2005 ...is, as it turns out, seriously insane, but also hilarious. This article is like a week old, but, oh man. The good parts: Saddam was friendly toward his young guards and sometimes offered fatherly advice. When O'Shea told him he was not married, Saddam "started telling me what to do," recalled the soldier. "He was like, `You gotta find a good woman. Not too smart, not too dumb. Not too old, not too young. One that can cook and clean.'"Then he smiled, made what O'Shea interpreted as a "spanking" gesture, laughed and went back to doing his laundry in the sink. For a time his favorite snack was Cheetos, and when that ran out, Saddam would "get grumpy," the story said. One day, guards substituted Doritos corn chips, and Saddam forgot about Cheetos. "He'd eat a family size bag of Doritos in 10 minutes," Dawson said. Just the very image of Saddam Hussein grinning, making a 'spanking gesture', quite possibly winking, then going back to DOING THE DISHES is the most insane experience I've had all week.

Dingo Chavez Posted June 27, 2005 Saddam Hussein loves Doritos, hates Froot Loops, admires President Reagan, thinks Clinton was "OK" and considers both Presidents Bush "no good." He talks a lot, worries about germs and insists he is still president of Iraq Sounds like my uncle (minus the Iraq part). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
