INDEPENDENCE DAY IN IRAQ

Vice President Joe Biden led the swearing in of 237 new U.S. citizens -- soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines -- at Saddam Hussein's former palace in Iraq, beneath the giant crystal chandelier of the late dictator and before a 50 foot American flag.

Biden pointed out, "We did it in Saddam's palace, and I can think of nothing better. That S.O.B. is rolling over in his grave right now."
