Question: What do you get when you put a microphone in front of an imbecile?

Answer: Howard Dean.

Dr. Dean has "stepped in it" again. Appearing on Face the Nation Sunday, the spiritual leader of the lemming Left and the official head of the Democratic Party declared that, "as of today it looks like women will be worse off in Iraq than they were when Saddam Hussein was president of Iraq."

Tell that to Kurdish women like Falih Al-Qaraghuli who had this to say about life under Saddam Hussein: "We were afraid all the time…Our life, it was unbearable…Life was miserable."

While fleeing Hussein’s forces in 1991, Falih and her family were ambushed at a roadblock. She was shot twice by Baathist forces, her father three times. Both survived. Her sister, aunt and stepmother weren’t as lucky - they were killed, as was Falih’s grandmother who was "burned like pieces of meat."

Falih’s tale is typical of the sort of violence visited upon women during the reign of the Great Uncle. Mass graves containing the remains of women with bullet holes in their skulls give silent testimony to the murderous nature of the Hussein regime, whose hatred of women was also defined by the psychotic sexual predations of the Great Leader’s sons.

Dr. Dean thinks his Face the Nation comments serve to discredit the Bush Administration and boost the credibility of the Democratic Party. They do neither.

All Dean managed to do Sunday was to spit on the graves of Saddam Hussein’s victims and tell Iraqi women that slavery is freedom.
