LaHood: Hussein's capture imminentLooks like a big PR move is brewing. Too bad lots of Americans are still dying while they decide how to capture this guy who we supposedly blasted to hell months ago.
U.S. Rep. Ray LaHood held his thumb and forefinger slightly apart and said, "We're this close" to catching Saddam Hussein.
Once that's accomplished, Iraqi resistance will fall apart, said the five-term Republican congressman from Peoria who serves on the House Intelligence Committee.
A member of The Pantagraph editorial board -- not really expecting an answer -- asked LaHood for more details, saying, "Do you know something we don't?"
"Yes I do," replied LaHood.
Oh, and hey, Ray - how close are we to capturing they guy we REALLY want? Y'know, that bin Laden fella? Got the inside track on that one, do ya?
