Hey Britney, you say you wanna lose control?

I guess Chris Matthews on "Hardball" said something along the lines that the photos of Saddam when he was captured made him look like a San Francisco homeless person. This, of course, was met by outrage by someone in this area because, naturally, it's wrong to say anything wrong about the Homeless. Even if he did look like several people I used to walk past on the Haight every day.

Actually, if Saddam were smart he should have taken that 750,000 bucks he had and gotten a ticket out here to be a homeless person. Better to be living in a shopping cart on 16th & Mission than a spider-hole in Iraq if you ask me. Plus, we'd never capture him here. Besides the obvious fact that it's not exactly where we're looking, we'd never arrest him because we never arrest homeless people. It's "wrong" to arrest homeless people. If he did get captured, the Homeless Activists would protest saying it's against his rights. Besides, he wouldn't be homeless if it weren't for the fact we kicked him out of his home and how can we arrest someone for being homeless unless we address all the root causes?

By the way, now that Saddam is going to get tried, do we constantly have to say "alleged" whenever we refer to him. As in "alleged genocidal tyrant?" Or "alleged mass-murderer?" Or say things like "allegedly had WMD?"

Oh wait, he never had him. Nevermind.
