Bunning apologizes for Saddam comparison LOUISVILLE (AP) — Sen. Jim Bunning's re-election campaign issued an apology after Bunning said a potential opponent looks like one of Saddam Hussein's sons. Senator Jim Bunning, right, is in hot water for comments made about his opponent, Kentucky state Sen. Daniel Mongiardo. AP photos Bunning made the comment about state Sen. Daniel Mongiardo during a speech at a Republican event March 20. Mongiardo will face Bunning in the November election if he wins the Democratic primary as expected. "We're sorry if this joke, which got a lot of laughs, offended anyone," Bunning's campaign manager, David Young, said Wednesday. Bunning apparently did not compare Mongiardo specifically to either of Saddam's two sons, Uday or Qusay. The brothers were killed in a firefight with U.S. soldiers July 22 last year. A spokesman for Mongiardo said he had not received an apology from Bunning personally and called on Bunning's campaign to make public the only known videotape of the speech.

Haaahahaha!
