The US Army military Police Museum in Missouri is displaying some artifacts from the overthrow of Saddam Hussein. Exhibits include official documents and Saddam’s 500 pound cell door. But they declined to display Saddam’s toilet. Pressed as to why, a spokeswoman said, “We don’t have a reason, really, when it comes down to it.”
- I can think of a couple of reasons… #1 and #2.
- Actually the male and female curators couldn’t agree on whether to display it with the seat up or down.
- They are displaying the copies of People Magazine, “Dictator’s Quarterly”, and “Better Spider Holes and Gardens” that Saddam kept next to the toilet.
