While Saddam's regime was clearly brutal, it was orderly and staunchly opposed to, say, the theocrats of Iran, and hence, useful to us (at one time, of course). By Middle Eastern standards, it was a secular state, women had rights, gas was cheap, and people didn't routinely get blown up while attending funerals.
Well, they do now.

While Saddam was no saint, his people, sadly, were better off with him than us. This administration can fuck up a wet dream.
