NOW HE THINKS HE'S AL GORE:
Saddam Challenges Bush To Debate (CBS News, Feb. 24, 2003)In an exclusive interview with CBS News Anchor Dan Rather, Saddam Hussein has challenged President George W. Bush to a live, international television and radio debate about the looming war.Saddam envisions it as being along the lines of U.S. presidential campaign debates. The Iraqi president also flatly denies that his al-Samoud missiles are in violation of United Nations' mandates and indicates he does not intend to destroy them or pledge to destroy them as demanded by chief U.N. weapons inspector Hans Blix. Blix had set a deadline for at least a promise by this weekend.
I know Saddam Hussein; he's a friend of mine; and he's not even Anne Richards. Posted by Orrin Judd at February 24, 2003 3:55 PM

Actually this might be a good idea for Dubya. He did slaughter Gore in one debate and went to a draw in another. I doubt that Hussein would pose that much of a threat. After he's captured and Iraq liberated I'm all for a debate.
