New Iraq Exit Strategy: Let's Bring Back Hussein, by Bill Maher

Los Angeles Times

"Here's an idea that I know is going to ruffle some feathers, and I agree it's not ideal, but just consider for one moment: We bring back Hussein.

Let me finish … yes, he would be nasty about it, like he always is, and brag how he defeated us again, but seriously, I think we can work with him now. Rumsfeld did before. It's just a matter of them getting back the nice vibe they had in the 1980s.

And honestly, he's tanned, rested and ready. He's had time to think, time to recharge his batteries. And speaking of charged batteries, no torture this time! We want Hussein the efficient administrator, not the brutal dictator."

I'll go with it, but Bill Maher has to go to Iraq and present political counterpoint to add some diversity. I hear that's a tough job.
