Saddam Video of Body after Hanging (New 1-8-07)

The Drop Broke Saddam's neck killing him instantly. At the executions following the Nuremberg Trials others were not so lucky.

THE TRIAL OF THE CENTURY--AND OF ALL TIME, PART TWO

"..The executions, in a brightly lighted prison gymnasium where three looming black wooden gallows had been erected, were witnessed by a handful of Allied military officers and eight journalists, one of whom, Kingsbury Smith of International News Service, wrote a famous newspaper article, "The Execution of Nazi War Criminals, 16 October 1946," based on his eyewitness observations. Although Smith discreetly omitted mentioning it, the experienced Army hangman, Master Sgt. John C. Woods, botched the executions. A number of the hanged Nazis died, not quickly from a broken neck as intended, but agonizingly from slow strangulation. Ribbentrop and Sauckel each took 14 minutes to choke to death, while Keitel, whose death was the most painful, struggled for 24 minutes at the end of the rope before expiring..."

Even a "wrist-slitter"?

Wrist slitter NEVER get the nomination.

You should know that; most of them are your candidates.

TI tell you one thing: I'm willing to vote for anybody with an R behind their name to take the power away from E V I L liberals.That you aren't says more about me than you feel you need to say about me to make yourself feel morally superior to the rest of us.

No. That's not the case. I just have core values I live by. That's my choice.

"R" can mean liberal, and it often does. Our "representative", who I never voted for, had an "R" after his name. When he got to Washington, he morphed into a flaming liberal. He had a 100% left wing voting record. Many voters don't pay attention after their "winner" leaves town. He even attended Clinton's celebration dinner at the White House following the impeachment because he voted "no."
Why would I vote for him? I'm not a liberal.

Finally. Now the Iraqi people can get some sense of closure in this long road ahead.

I can see before this next election is over FR is going to split apart at the seams... looks to me like shades of 1991 in the offing and that isn't a pretty picture.

I just have core values I live by.

And we don't?

And you all wonder why there's so much distaste for you sanctimonious ones?

"He was hooded, I believe."

Then I'll settle for seeing close-up video of his face just before they bagged him. Lower body and floor too, just to check for shakey knees and "fluid accumulation."

We paid many billions of dollars to get to this stage. Seeing is believing and it's only natural that some of us want our money's worth.

Maybe you self proclaimed Conservatives should learn that not all of us walk lockstep with Pukeannan and his ilk. Conservatism has a wide variety of ideas but you guys are all thought nazis who label anyone who doesn't agree with you as liberals or some such nonsense.

Saddamn getting executed is exactly why President Bush is a courageous man yet you guys give him less credit than your average moonbat.

Pray for W and Our Troops

Yeah. You could be right. It's pretty acrimonious. It's not new, but it's ugly...and FR seems to have an ever-growing crop of liberals to feed the fires.

Post a picture or video of his dead, vacant stare. Until then, it is rumor and speculation. Show me.

Um, why wouldn't you believe this? It's being reported by pretty much everyone and our President has already issued a statement on it.

You mount a campaign to elect a more conservative candidate in your state primaries. You don't jump ship or not show up.
