Iraqi Parliament Votes 'No Confidence' in Saddam

Sometimes satire is so much more effective than plain argumentation. Scott Ott is great at it: Iraqi Parliament Votes 'No Confidence' in Saddam:

(2003-02-14) -- A dejected Saddam Hussein quietly packed his bags and left the main Presidential palace today after he lost a 'no confidence' vote in the Iraqi Parliament.

Peace protestors around the world have called for such a vote saying, "we think Saddam should go, but that is for the Iraqi people to decide and not the United States."

Indeed the representatives of the Iraqi people have spoken, dismissing the only leader many Iraqis can remember. Despite years of Saddam's propaganda, they voted their consciences. Heedless of the brutal dictator's track record of torturing and executing political opponents, they cast their votes against him. Regardless of Saddam's history of using chemical and biological weapons against Iraqi citizens, they stood their ground and said collectively, "You must go." Surrounded by his loyal and vicious security force and Republican guards, they decided to do what's right for the Iraqi people.
