Saddam Hussein and his murderous regime were symbolically toppled with this week’s free vote in Iraq. Meanwhile, back in America, Democratic Party sweetheart, Senator Hillary Clinton, fell down and went boom at an event in Buffalo, New York. No doubt, it’s been a pretty tough week for terrorists, Saddam, and their liberal cheerleaders.

The terrorists pulled off their only pre-election homicide bombing by strapping a bomb to the back of some guy with Downs Syndrome. I think this is the terrorists’ way of giving a shout-out to all the liberal infidels in America, by demonstrating that they’re committed to non-discriminatory recruiting practices. Enrolment must be down. I guess blowing yourself up isn’t the career of choice anymore, particularly now that there are better things to look forward to over there--like the possibility of a McDonalds on every corner. People who aspire to wear those Grimace, Ronald McDonald or Mayor McCheese outfits don’t tend to go blowing themselves to smithereens.

Post-election, terrorists in Iraq put up a picture on one of their websites of what they claimed to be a US soldier being held hostage. As it turns out, it was a dummied-up photo of a military doll with a fake machine gun to its head. Not quite “Farenheit 9/11” caliber propaganda, but definitely an “A+” for effort. The accompanying statement announced that they were holding others hostage, too. I guess they mean G.I. Joe, Barbie, all the Smurfs, and Bob the Builder. If the terrorists capture Tin Tin, then maybe the French will actually start fighting?
