Will it have a bulge?
The worldwide "deserving-a-statue curve" has been permanently shot to hell:
The man replacing the mayor of Baghdad — who was assassinated for his pro-American loyalties — says he is not worried about his ties to Washington. In fact, he'd like to erect a monument to honor President Bush in the middle of the city.
"We will build a statue for Bush," said Ali Fadel, the former provincial council chairman. "He is the symbol of freedom."
More in the NY Post.
I guess when the inevitable Iraqi civil war occurs, one of the sides will have something to topple.
