… said this would never happen!

Yahoo! news has a photo slideshow of the capture of Saddam Hussein, and several photos show celebrations erupting in Iraq. One (I’d provide a link but it keeps changing as Yahoo! adds more photos) included a caption that began with: “Iraqis dance in the street following the news of the arrest of ousted Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein.”

“Dance in the street?” What’s this? Didn’t our local experts, a select few professors of English and assorted other disciplines at our UNC institutions, guaranteed us that there wouldn’t be dancing in the streets of Iraq while under “occupation” of the U.S. “empire” and whatnot? How can this be?
