Mayor of Baghdad: Erect a statue of Bush

Am I the only one seeing the irony of Bush replacing Saddam?

The man replacing the mayor of Baghdad ? who was assassinated for his pro-American loyalties ? says he is not worried about his ties to Washington.

In fact, he’d like to erect a monument to honor President Bush in the middle of the city.

“We will build a statue for Bush,” said Ali Fadel, the former provincial council chairman. “He is the symbol of freedom.” NY Post
