Random selection from a CNN closed caption transcript:

reporter: who was that nice man strolling with his wife? yes, it’s him. the cruel and ruthless iraqi dictator, saddam hussein. all warm, fuzzy. romanticly strolling with his first wife on a snowy path, trendy leather coat, furry hat. gently kissing her good-bye like a good husband at the now famous saddam hussein international airport. tailored suit, shyly a modest cake for his 50th birthday. happily chatting with peasants behind the wheel of his white mercedes. well, this is not an episode of joe dictator, or an iraqi version of the lifestyles of the rich and famous. these are videotapes from the ’80s found in a palace of saddam hussein’s first wife. bizarre imagency almost surreal, but a reminder that even brutal dictators have a private life.
