#2 UH. This looks like a different story than yesterday's...

US and Iraqi officials aren't outright denying it.

#6 Oh, if this is true I say start sharpening the knives! Let's see how this a-hole likes being on the receiving end for a change.

#8 Latest conspiracy theory (but I forget where I read it and if it was serious or satirical):

Bush deliberately held back info on this so it would not disrupt Kerry's speech. He wanted people to be sure to get a good look at him and hear what he had to say LOL.

FIENDISH republicans, no?

#9 How many times have we "caught" him so far? Never mind the 48 hour rule. If it involves Zarqawi, I'm involving my "I'll believe it when it's officially confirmed by a named official source" rule.

Not, mind you, that I don't hope that it's true... this time.

#11 Dar, sharpening the knives? No Way! Dull the knives, dull the knives! Yes, use the knives -- but dull the knives.

#12 I won't believe it is him until we're
shown the warm sticky blood spurting from his newly headless neck on pay-per-view.
