Saddam Hussein Hanging LIVE Thread

This might or might not be historic. It will be mentioned in some history books, but that doesn't necessarily mean it was historic, merely that it happened and a date is assigned to the event.

"Shouldn't it be the Saddam Hanging DEAD thread?"

How about Saddam died dancing? Dancing at the end of a rope.

I'll take the time of Saddam's death at 9:02 pm 12/29/2006 Baghdad time (which puts him at assuming room temperature about 15 minutes ago).

Ironic: on 12/13/03 (I think that was the date), Saddam was
found in the spiderhole. I was spending a weekend at my
Dad's house on Cape Cod; woke up Sunday morning and the story was all over the news. Saddam had been caught! "Yeah,"
my liberal Dad said. "There's no way Dean is gonna win now,"
he said, disappointed. (Remember Dean was the frontrunner
at that point! Yeaaaaaaaaarghhh!)

And tomorrow I'm heading down there again for a post-
Christmas family get-together...ironic that Saddam will
be getting hanged right about the same time I head down
there...or just before.

I'm off to BevMo for a bottle of bubbly. Question is, Moet White Star or Andre?

I hate to waste money on good champagne for Sadam but then, as he might agree today, life's to short to drink bad wine.

I heard someone (can't remember who) say it would be performed in the late morning Iraq time (Saddam would be woken up in the morning and then given a few hours to meditate about his fate). So I'll say 2:00 AM ET tomorrow.

CNN's coverage right now is absolutely hysterical. They're in an absolute panic.
