DEAD AND LOVING IT: In the latest in a series of geopolitical deaths that I can't seem to get too upset about (Idi Amin's will be next), Saddam's sons Uday and Quesay Hussein were killed Tuesday in a firefight with US troops. The Hussein boys were reported dead at least twice during the war- but, apparently, we mean it this time. Uday and Quesay Hussein are still dead.
In a bizarre, ad-libbed, unintentionally hilarious comment, Chris Matthews tonight gave Uday and Quesay the perfect epitaph: "they had pig Latin names, and one of them was a pervert."
