51. Saddam was a good guy

until he became a bad guy.

I am ignorant of nothing, in the real world we support less than desirable people to get U.S. interests fulfilled. We always have and we always will. Every President in the 20th century has blood on their hands from "allies" they supported that were not good people. I advise you to join me in the real world where good guys today become bad guys tomorrow if it suits our national interests. That is not some rant, that is reality, read a book or watch some documentaries. For now, Israel is the good guys for us. Our national policies toward them reflect this as truth. If it changes, then they become the bad guys. But listening to PBO, Harry Reid and Barbara Boxer, I don't think they will become bad guys in our national mindset anytime soon.
