Why is Bush more worried about the legal rights of Arab dictators than innocent Americans?

I just find it funny that the latest spin from the Bush administration, dissected below, includes the supposed concern that Saddam's conviction and execution might not have been legal. Yeah right. Bush and the Republicans think Americans should be picked up in the dark of night and secretly thrown into prison, forever, with no access to a lawyer or a court of law, ever, but when it comes to the dictator who they were so sure is guilty they invaded his country and killed 3000 American troops in the process, suddenly Bush is now very worried that Saddam's conviction might be illegal.

So what the Republicans are saying is that Arab dictators have more rights than innocent Americans.

Nice.
