I keep seeing this pattern where there is a big idiotic thing that happens that causes the US to look bad then followed by an even bigger idiotic move to somehow justify the first idiotic move.

No, of course Bush didn't plant it.
How does a cell phone during an Iraqi execution make the US look bad?

......... but I wonder who said US is looking bad? US is very highly ranked by most noble people and peace loving Presidents all-lover the world. Otherwise who would control North Korea (Even Japan and China are happy with Bush on his stand), who would frighten Iran, Hezbollah, Syria, send Osama bin Laden hiding in the curves and powerful Saddam squeezing into a tinny hole?
Only Terrorists and some inexperienced Americans are unhappy about America and George Bush. - .....America is like thunder that thunders from afar; unmanning any zealous darer! Like a male lion that roars; causing termite to fall off from the tree branches! like a giant that is tall and muscular, causing mini-man to abandon their machetes and trust their feet!
The Cell phone, whether put by whosoever, is not an issue ...terrorists are terrorists, only worry is that the media has joined in and taken their side!! Terrorists were terrorists and suicide bombers even before the cell-phone issue and Saddam hanging. Non-America.

Bush may not have planted the cellphone himself inside the execution room but the officials and U.S. Army-trained guards who carried Saddam to the gallows did. The guards were heard chanting "Muqtada.. Muqtada".. for the "IRANIAN" origin, anti-American, Shiite leader Muqtada Al-Sadder. The U.S. government claims it has trained and handed over the Iraqi government to the local Iraqis, then who are these pro-Iran guards and officials that handled the whole affair of Saddam's execution? This so called Iraqi government is in fact comprising of and is furthermore breeding today's worst enemy of the Americans .. the pro-Iranian Shiites. U.S. is creating another Iran inside Iraq !!

No.
Just because I don't agree with how he leads, doesn't mean he's the scapegoat for everything bad.
If anything, blame the cell phone on some Shiite who wanted to post the video to all his Shiite buddies so they can celebrate.
Or blame it on some Sunni guy who wanted to show his kinsmen how bad their old leader was treated.
Or blame it on some random fellow who wants the US to be bogged down in Iraq longer. Maybe to keep our military there, or to further discredit us and the government we put in power.
Stop blaming Bush for things he hasn't done. It's getting tedious and annoying. Besides, he's been wanting more troops in Iraq before the execution took place.

Your connection makes no sense. The idiot who took the video phone in the execution chamber has been arrested. Considering the nasty forms of unrestricted "incentives" the Iraqis use for extracting information from their prisoners, I think he'd be singing like a bird if the Americans set him up with it.

Of course he did he was probably standing there himself doing the filming some people have no shame just this endless desire for power.
Look at these numbskulls here they believe Iraq has its own gevernment and they are the ones who executed Saddam you've got to hand it to the American media they are doing an excellent job of brainwashing the so called land of the free.

Ummmmm.....how does the cell phone video of Saddam's hanging make the US look bad? Are you even aware that the trial and execution of Saddam was conducted under Iraqi law?

The person who shot the cellphone video was a high-ranking Iraqi official. Everyone who was present at the execution had their cellphones taken away, except for TWO Iraqi officials. The video was leaked in order to foment even more sectarian violence in Iraq. Why do you think the Sunnis are so pissed, now?

bush was safely asleep in his bed when sadaam was hanged. also that has nothing with wanting to send more troops because this was in talks before Saddam was sentenced.
