We need a "countdown" thread as to when DU goes into mourning.
I predict first thread at DU will be within 1 minute after the news Sadaam has entered "worm food" status.
Chris Wallace seems a bit sorrowful on FOX. I would be grinning like the famed Cheshire Cat, unprofessional as it may be.

Nearly at the end of his rope...
Now if only a bunch of other mass murderers and thugs could join him on the scaffold.
it would be justice in arabia to turn him over to the masses. its a cultural celebration to publically kill the former leader and drag the body and its parts through the center of town.
Great idea Chuck....Hey AM can you insert the words.... Countdown Begins.... to the thread title.
Patience my FRiend, Patience.
It'll be there.
Celebrity deaths always come in threes. James Brown, Gerald Ford and now Saddam.
And there's plenty more where they came from.........
He's dead Jim.
He'll be just in time to make teetime with Hitler, Stalin and Pol Pot at the Hell Country Club.
Annie (Original 1982 Motion Picture) soundtrack lyrics -- Tommorrow .. Aileen Quinn / Orphans
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow,
Bet your bottom dollar that
Tomorrow
There'll be sun!
Just thinking about
Tomorrow,
clears away the cobwebs
and the sorrow
'til there's none.
When I'm stuck with a day,
that's gray, and lonely
I just stick out my chin
and grin and say: Oh!
The sun'll come out Tomorrow,
So you got to hang on 'til Tomorrow.
Come what may!
Tomorrow, Tomorrow,
I love ya, Tomorrow,
you're only a day away.
Tomorrow, Tomorrow,
I love ya, Tomorrow,
you're only a day away!

He should be stoned.
I'm disappointed they're not broadcasting it live.
BREAKING NOOSE -- SADAAM TO HANG!!!
We need some Zeppelin on this thread:
Gallows Pole
(Trad. Arr. Jimmy Page)
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
Think I see my friends coming, Riding a many mile.
Friends, did you get some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my dear friends, To keep me from the Gallows Pole?
What did you bring me to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
I couldn't get no silver, I couldn't get no gold,
You know that we're too damn poor to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, hold it a little while,
I think I see my brother coming, riding a many mile.
Brother, did you get me some silver?
Did you get a little gold?
What did you bring me, my brother, to keep me from the Gallows Pole?
Brother, I brought you some silver,
I brought a little gold, I brought a little of everything
To keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Yes, I brought you to keep you from the Gallows Pole.
Hangman, hangman, turn your head awhile,
I think I see my sister coming, riding a many mile, mile, mile.
Sister, I implore you, take him by the hand,
Take him to some shady bower, save me from the wrath of this man,
Please take him, save me from the wrath of this man, man.
Hangman, hangman, upon your face a smile,
Pray tell me that I'm free to ride,
Ride for many mile, mile, mile.
Oh, yes, you got a fine sister, She warmed my blood from cold,
Brought my blood to boiling hot To keep you from the Gallows Pole,
Your brother brought me silver, Your sister warmed my soul,
But now I laugh and pull so hard And see you swinging on the Gallows Pole
Swingin' on the gallows pole!
Seems like a good bet, but not a certainty. Still my understanding was that the handover was to be immediately preceding the execution, not more than an hour or three. He was not being moved, just administratively transferred to Iraqi custody, but in the same facility, which is also the same one containing the "just for him" gallows.
