can't come up wit a way to put a negative spin on it?

I've commented on the capture of Saddam. It's good that he's been
captured and will be the subject of a showy trial, but I don't think it
is a big deal. He hasn't been the head of state in Iraq for what, seven
months? And it took all of Bush's horses and all of Bush's men to find him?

Our invasion of Iraq wasn't the equivalent of the liberation of Belgium
or even the siege and relief of Bastogne during the Battle of the Bulge.
In Iraq, we took on a fifth-rate power whose uniformed military forces
collapsed shortly after we arrived.

I know you Conservatives want to make the toppling of Saddam the
greatest thing since sliced bread, but, in reality, all it is is a minor
positive blip in a sadly mistaken U.S. misadventure, one aimed at
propping up a failed US president in the popularity polls.
