Bush Back to Blaming Saddam

At what point does Bush stop blaming Saddam for things, considering the man has been in jail for 2 1/2 years and out of power for more than three?

Yet today, the president comes out and blames Saddam for the violence in Iraq when Hussein is barely an historical footnote today.

No question Saddam was a bad guy. Unfortunately, for a long time, he was a bad guy the Bushies supported which helped him stay in office. Cheney's companies, for example, sold him some of the lovely stuff he used to exterminate his own people as well as the Kurds.

But for Bush to cry Saddam's blame now is lame. Lame. Really, really lame. It just shows how desperate the Bushies are to lay responsibility at anyone and everyone's feet but their own.
