... is the greatest thing ever.

Ever.

Speaking at the Edinburgh International Television Festival, South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone said US Marines guarding the former dictator during his trial for genocide were making him watch the movie "repeatedly".

"I have it on pretty good information from the Marines on detail in Iraq that they showed him the movie last year. That's really adding insult to injury. I bet that made him really happy," Stone said.

Really. I'm done blogging for the day, for I must bask in this perfect manifestation of justice in the South Park conservative worldview (aggressive foreign policy topples murderous dictator, who is then taunted with naughty, filthy (South Park!) movie).

To sweeten the mix, according to IMDB:

[South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut] was banned in Iraq, for its depiction of Saddam Hussein as a homosexual involved with the devil.

UPDATE:

(Great concept, moderately executed. Original here.)

The ever sanctimonious Althouse disagrees.

I love the clowns that come to her defense also. The "He did it first defense". Where "it" = a movie , or raping and murdering your family members in front of you. Layers. Degrees.

Just take him up to Kirbala (or however you spell that Kurdish city) and release him.

Now, now. Have you considered the wolverine's feelings?

It won't work either way. The Platte's running dry again this year. You could chuck them in the Missouri though.
