...could not believe people cared what I said," Maines says in the film. But after issuing two statements - first a clarification, then an apology - within three days of the original blast, she got her feist back. When country star Toby Keith posted a doctored photo of her with Saddam Hussein, Natalie donned a T shirt emblazoned with the acronym F.U.T.K. (In the movie she sees an anti-Chick protester wearing another T shirt, one that reads F.U.D.C., and wonders, "Whaddaya have against Dick Cheney?") She also held onto her sense of humor when the death threats came. Read one: "Natalie...
...that no one wants to address the dirty little secret about the war? Iraq and the rest of the world - especially the U.S. - would be much better off if Saddam Hussein had been left in power. The only thing that the Iraqi people have proved to the rest of the world through this whole fiasco is that they deserve a tyrant.

Insiders expect Prince Zeid al-Hussein, Jordan's U.N. envoy, to declare, though handicappers note that an Arab might be viewed as insufficiently impartial, given the turmoil in the Middle East. Other possible candidates are former Malaysian Deputy P.M. Anwar Ibrahim and two contenders to be the first female Secretary-General: Singaporean Ambassador to Washington Chan...
...sweeping talk of "ending tyranny in our world," Bush has been circumspect in implementing his freedom agenda. He got off to a good start with the overthrow of the Taliban and Saddam Hussein, which liberated more than 50 million people from two of the most oppressive regimes in the world. Since then, unfortunately, much of the momentum for democratic change has been lost, in large part because of the increasing chaos in Iraq. And yet it would be a mistake to become overly dismissive of the long-term prospects for democracy in the Middle East. That would be like writing...
