Time for me to get cleaned up and properly attired

We had to let our concierge and butler go. I am at a loss as to the proper apparel for the lynching of an Iraqi dictator. Should it be Black Tie, or Tux and Tails? Perhaps something more casual, like khaki's and an Izod golf shirt? Funny how these events just sneak up on us.

It isn't a lynching, it is a judical hanging.

Saddam asks U.S. to block execution

By MATT APUZZO, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - Lawyers for Saddam Hussein on Friday made a last-minute appeal to an American court to avert execution in Iraq, asking a judge to block his transfer from U.S. custody to the hands of Iraqi officials.

Hussein's lawyers filed documents Friday afternoon asking for an emergency restraining order aimed at stopping the U.S. government from relinquishing custody of the condemned former Iraqi leader to Iraqi officials, a spokeswoman for a federal court in Washington D.C. said.

The documents were being processed and were not immediately made public. The Justice Department had not yet responded to the request.

A similar request by the former chief justice of the Revolutionary Court, Awad Hamed al-Bandar, was denied Thursday and is under appeal. Al-Bandar also faces execution. The Justice Department argued in that case that U.S. courts have no jurisdiction to interfere with the judicial process of another country.

Al-Bandar argued that his trial violated his rights under the U.S. Constitution but Justice countered that foreigners being tried in foreign courts are not protected by the U.S. Constitution.

The appeals court did not indicate when it would rule on the issue.

I think anything in the way of attire will be suitable as long as it's not black.
