Bush shows gun to visitors (in same room Clinton showed his to Lewinsky): "A handgun that Saddam Hussein was clutching when US forces captured him in a hole in Iraq last December was now kept by President George W. Bush at the White House, a spokesman confirmed today. Time magazine, which first disclosed the gun's location, said military officials had it mounted after it was seized from Saddam near his hometown of Tikrit last year, and soldiers involved in the capture gave it to Bush. The magazine quoted a visitor who had been shown the gun, which is kept in a small study off the Oval Office where Bush displays memorabilia. It is the same room where former President Bill Clinton had some of his encounters with former intern Monica Lewinsky.
"Bush showed Saddam's gun to select visitors, telling them it was unloaded, both now and when Saddam was captured. "He really liked showing it off," Time quoted a visitor as saying. "He was really proud of it.""
