Nobody thinks that he was a good guy. Hell he shook hands with Rumsfeld.
In the 30 years of rule, less Iraqis died than in the 3 years of Bush's rule. In fact Saddam would have had to rule another 20 years to kill as many as have died unders Bush's supervision.
I wonder if the nearly 700 Thousand dead could be polled, would they choose death or Saddam?
