SADDAM TRIAL
This is just the kind of education we need: A Head of State put on trial for policies he implements while in office.

I'm thinking aloud here, folks.
It's billed as the Trial of the Century.
Watching some of the Saddam spectacular yesterday, I'm thinking "Why Now?"
Why is Bush putting this on now?
Ah, actually, this is just the previews. We won't get to see the actual trial until after the election! We just got to see this teeny tidbit so Bush could use it in his campaign ads. Except Saddam spoiled the scene by not playing his role as "Defeated Dictator" as written.
Well, I can certaily understand why we won't see the actual trial now. Imagine, a Head of State put on trial by his own people for flawed policies!
That could really open the flood gates. Not just in Iraq, but in - say - WASHINGTON DC!!
Count 1
How about a President who lies to Congress (State of the Union, '02)
Count 2
How about a President who attacks a sovereign nation unprovoked (Still looking for those damned WMD's!)
Count 3
How about a Vice President who uses his influence to procure a nice lucrative contract for a company his used to run (and then Halliburton is found to have mis-managed the job, stealing MILLIONS of DOLLARS from American taxpayers.)
Oh, hell, I cannot think of a single thing this knot-headed president has done that isn't either a very bad idea or just outright illegal!
And then how about putting the entire Congress on trial for not doing their single most important job of oversight - for not seeing to it the Constitution of the United States is upheld.
(No, these Bozo's were too busy shouting "Under God" in the "Pledge of Allegience" on the Capital Steps.)
Hell, we could clean out that whole city. Now, that's the Trial of the Century.

with republicans controlling both houses, the
courts and the oval office, waxing nostalgic is
about all any but the most right wing can do.
on the other hand, voting is still our
prerogative and i certainly intend to -
often!
don't forget the libertarians on
your local ballots.

well i'm out of ideas. i guess we just let this
thing play out, but -ssasignations of interim
iraqi leaders and a mounting american death toll
along with iraqi citizens.....we need to develop
cold fusion technology. we have to start leaving
this oil alone.

a) imagine what kind of hell saddam would turn
iraq into for those that opposed him, if he was
reinstated. oy.
b) saddam's records? what
records? oh, the ones that were lost during the
looting?!

the world was a lot better place when saddam was
still in control of iraq. i look at the news now
and its the same sad story day after day. sorry to
say that i'm almost getting num to the fact that
2,3,4 soldiers were killed today and everyday. why
does bush say the world is such a better place
now. what is on dope. he should start reading the
newspaper (which he won't do). he needs a sense of
reality. maybe getting booted out on his -ss in
november will wake him up. by the way, saddam is
still technically speaking, the leader of iraq. he
was taken hostage by the coalition for not
complying with inspections that prove no weapons
existed, as he was saying the whole time. he was
never removed from his post legally or by a
majority vote. he was not overthrown or defeated
in a declared war. give him his job back, and
let's end this mess.

it would be interesting to see a fair and open
trial, but i won't hold my breath. we will most
likely get the pentagon edited version, if
anything at all. imagine saddam bringing to light
his convenient ties with previous administrations,
and the sources of all of his chemical and
biological weapons. i'm sure he has pretty good
records of his deals with the us.
