South Park Creators Given Signed Photo of Saddam Hussein

Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the creators of South Park, were given a very special gift by US marines: a signed photo of Saddam Hussein. During his captivity, the marines forced Saddam to repeatedly watch the movie South Park: Bigger, Longer And Uncut, which shows him as the boyfriend of Satan. Stone said, "We're very proud of our signed Saddam picture and what it means. It's one of our biggest highlights."

I think most people don't know just how bad Saddam was...

He employed a professional rapist to rape the wives of anyone who spoke out against the regime... Oh, and the whole family was brought in to observe their Mother/Daughter/Sister being raped in order to punish the offender.

He employed an industrial plastic shredder to shred alive anyone who spoke out after having the wife raped... Hated people were fed in head first, really hated people were fed in feet first. Shred the wife before the husband.

Ever seen the video of dissenters being thrown off the top of a four floor building? I caught it once on Fox.

One of Saddam's sons used the elementary school system as a source of children for his sex-capades. Any complaints - Daddy's got a shredder...

As with many problems, the solution begins with a little political bravery and continues with massive, sustained investment in education and critical thinking.

Oh most definitely, all the worlds problems can be solved with massive investment in education. That must be why America is such a paradise under the Deomcrats.

I know in theory everyone is innocent until proven guilty but come on, this is fucking Saddam Hussein we are talking about. The real issue should be wondering why they wasted money on a trial anyway instead of just moving straight to sentencing.

That is the problem with the rest of the world.
Here is the US people, such as Matt Stone and Trey Parker, can get other people to give them money and they can then produce a movie to include also anything they like.
That the rest of the world does not like the movie is no reflection on the US but on a people who made it.
Also the movie was not made using tax money.

Seriously. I'm confused as to where they all came from. Is there some like to Slashdot from Daily Kos?

Not to say that being forced to watch a film over and over again couldn't be torture - a TV with the volume turned up to maximum, outside the cell but pointing in, playing the same film on repeat 24 hours a day for example.

You do realize all you've described is what the staff of many electronics stores have to endure? That was just like my first job... I can still hear the soundtrack to 3DMark99 ringing in my ears... guitar solo! Da na NAAANG! Boo. Fucking. Hoo.

Like I've been saying, nobody has any perspective anymore.

You're being deliberately disingenuous. I was replying to somebody that said 'It's ok when we do it.' Which implies, sarcastically, that it's not ok when terrorists do it. What I said was not anything like 'terrorists are the limit of standards' as you imply, but rather specifically that even if terrorists behaved exactly as the US armed forces did in this instance, that would be just fine with me.

In brief, an accusation was made of a double standard. I said no double standard exists, the behavior could and should be seen as universally acceptable.

Where you've managed to pull out of your ass that I'm even implying that we should accept merely being better than the worst I can't see.

Did Democrats (at both top and street level) do anything less about Sarah Palin?

Did they keep Sarah Palin captive too? Force her to be dumb white trash?

I have.

It seems to have been said by some dumb ass.
