Saddam is not disarming

The headline Bush to Argue Saddam 'Is Not Disarming' inspired in Neil Gaiman these inappropriate thoughts:

"But George, you were dancing with Saddam all night. You must think he is the most disarming man on the planet."

"I do not. That man is not disarming. I was only dancing with him to please papa."

"George Bush, I do declare that you have started to blush! Mary Lou said Saddam Hussein was the most charming man at the party."

"I am not blushing. He is not disarming, and he is not charming, and he, he's a terrible dancer. Now leave me alone, or I shall tell papa!"

His journal doesn't have permalinks; it's an entry for 1/28/2003.

Comments

I like the follow-up even better, where he responds to a complainer who appears to have completely missed the point. "Good lord. And there was me, thinking it was funny..." Heh.
