aren't morning prayers AT dawn?

møøselimb dawn, when you can distinguish a black thread from a white one. Way earlier than western dawn.

What goes best with the execution of a brutal dictator, white or red?

RED!

Stop everything!

Coleman Young gave Saddam a key to the city of Detroit.

Better get the key back before he takes it with him to hell.

So we know what to look for:

I saw it on peapod, so they have it at Randall's, anyway.

"I understand from a History Channel special on the old west that hangings result in a reflexive emptying of the bowels."

I have heard that happens in all deaths. Not sure how accurate that is though.

The crossed swords are still there and we can't demolish them because they belong to the Iraqis. It's like their Arc-de-Triumph for the Iran-Iraq war. The 'cornucopia' nets at the base of the hands are filled with Iranian helmets. The helmets extend onto the ground in several rows and cross to the other side and into the other side's net of helmets. It's a big parade ground and the military equipment would roll over the rows of Iranian helmets when entering and exiting the review. The helmets in the ground are supported by concrete underneith so they don't crush. The arms are said to be modeled from Saddam's which when you think of it would put him underground, like he's reaching up from Hell. It's pretty macabre actually.

Evan Kohlmann was saying on MSNBC earlier that not one of the major terrorist/insurgent groups has issued a statement suggesting they were going to avenge Hussein. Kohlmann suggested that the only people likely to try something are Ba'athists. And they're not the threat AQ and its ilk are.

Regarding songs, how about "Saddam, We Hardly Knew Ye"?

Q - How many times does the MSM just make up a bogus source to get out in front of the rest of the pack?

A - At least half the time.

The worst yet, is when the MSM starts sorcing each other.

"...WTMJ 4 has learned that two TV stations are saying the execution will occur withib the hour..."

Whooopeee!

I'm just kinda surprised the Iraqis haven't gotten rid of them.

A US judge put a restraiing order on this? On what basis? The execution is by Iraq, a sovereign country.

Anybody seen Ramsey Clark lately? Anyway, I'm sure Specter would agree with this approach.
