DUBYA: What she's referring to is a members of a Delta team came to see me in the Oval Office and brought with me these were the people that found Saddam Hussein, the dictator of Iraq, hiding in a hole. And, by the way, let me remind everybody about Saddam Hussein, just in case we all forget. There were mass graves under his leadership. There were torture chambers. Saddam Hussein if you we had seven people come to my office. Perhaps the foreign press didn't see this story. Seven people came to my they had their hands cut off because the Iraqi currency had devalued. And Saddam Hussein needed somebody to blame, so he blamed small merchants. And their hands were chopped off, their right hand.
