Saddam Verdict - Breaking News

[theoriginalblurker]

I've been keeping my eye on the CNN coverage of the Hussein verdict this evening. It looks like Saddam and two others have been found guilty of crimes against humanity and sentenced to death by hanging. The judge looks pretty ticked off with Ramsey Clark, and has now thrown him out of the courtroom. I'm sure we'll hear more about that in the news later today. Even a guard who was seen smiling was asked to leave. This judge is not screwing around.

I wonder how this verdict and sentencing will affect the Iraqi people. It's not as if it was a surprise, but you never know how the public will react.

And here goes my cynical thought for the morning...

Now I'm just waiting for the big press conference the President throws, oh so coincidentally the night before the elections, to say, "See, going into Iraq was the right thing. Look what we did!"

Gag.
