Wait a minute… I viewed the beard being gone as a sign that he had been given shaving supplies to help him clean up and regain a little dignity. I don’t remember him ever sporting a bush like that before.

Anyone?
I can only hope it’s much worse then “poorly”.
Damn us and our civilized nation. Screw the Geneva Convention. I say put a mans nuts in a pair of vise grips and he tells all.
I really don’t care much about what they do to Saddam, but seeing the naked machinations of propaganda doesn’t give me the warm fuzzies.
They had to make sure he hadn’t any WMDs on him.
My advice: send Saddam of to the Kurds, who will no doubt, receive him with traditional hospitality.
Frankly, I don’t give a damn about Saddam…shoot him like the mad dog he is…and hang his bullet-riddled corpse from the nearest lamppost.
i thought it was so people could see what he looked like without a beard and with a trimmed moustache and hair, similiar to the hair he had before capture so people could compare the captive Saddam to the pre-captive Saddam.
