Yes, and there’s another paragraph in the link you just posted that I feel should get equal airtime.

> So what if Saddam bullied the world’s most powerful news network into subservience. Did it matter? Who knows. But perhaps, had Saddam’s image been more clearly exposed as ruthless and homicidal, his luster in the Arab streets would have been dimmed, diplomatic pressures on him intensified — and the recent war averted.

Enjoy,

As many times as **elucidator** and I have disagreed, one thing he said _changed my life._ He’s a mad genius I tell you. But, very, very mad. Very.

“Despite Beagle’s reach for neutron density sarcasm, he inadvertently makes a good point.” – **elucidator**

I don’t exactly remember the context, but I only shoot for foam rubber density now.

Don’t let sarcasm prevent you from communicating with your fellow man! Let this be a lesson to all you kids out there.
