Not a Lemming

RECEIVED Mon., March 20, 2006

Dear Editor,
    I have been watching with amusement the story on the Saddam trial. It seems he is being accused of ordering the assassinations of 152 people who disagreed with his policies. Excuse me, but isn't that about the same number of people Janet Reno had executed in Waco? I know it's only maybe two more than George Bush ordered executed while he was governor of Texas. Is that really the best we could do?
    Seems like a waste of $400 billion or $500 billion. When are all you lemmings going to wake up?
