Sure enough, former Iraqi Information Minister Mohammad Saeed "Comical Ali" al-Sahaf has been
offered a job with a TV station, Dubai's al-Arabiya. Let the bidding war begin.
Possible future careers for Comical Ali:
- Assistant to Hillary Rosen in Baghdad
- Replacement for [Robert Fisk/Michael Moore/insert despised goddamnliberal columnist here] (insert oh-so-witty snide remark about improved accuracy here)
- by the same token, Guardian columnist... hang on, he's done that.
- FOXNews reporter (in the interests of "balanced coverage")
- TV entertainment show host
- ad campaign star (I'm sure someone would fly him over, Mahir-fashion, to star in their ads. It's a pity CATS wasn't a real person; he'd have been great flogging car-auction web sites and such; can you imagine: "All your bargain are belong to us: www.e-ridiculousname.com". But I digress.)

Another prime genius. If you listen to the latest Hour of Slack they have suggested that he is (was) the Iraqi Minister for Slack.
