Bush was (very disputedly) elected and will have to stand for re-
election. Even if he wins a second term, after that, he's US history.
Saddam, OTOH, is a fascist dictator-for-life, who has engaged in
aggression, assassination, gassing villages full of women and children,
and pursuing nuclear weapons with which to kill masses of people more
effectively. It is high time that his forcibly maintained perpetual term in
office was truncated.
