Saddam Hussein Hanging LIVE Thread

[AVNevis]

Since it now seems very imminent, I decided that it was an appropriate time to start this up. Links to information and pictures (if we get them) can be posted here.

FOREIGN AND COMMONWEALTH OFFICE News Release issued by The Government News
Network on 30 December 2006
"I welcome the fact that Saddam Hussein has been tried by an Iraqi court
for at least some of the appalling crimes he committed against the Iraqi
people. He has now been held to account. The British Government does not
support the use of the death penalty, in Iraq or anywhere else. We advocate
an end to the death penalty worldwide, regardless of the individual or the
crime. We have made our position very clear to the Iraqi authorities, but
we respect their decision as that of a sovereign nation.

"Iraq continues to face huge challenges. But now it has a
democratically-elected government which represents all communities and is
committed to fostering reconciliation. We will continue to work with this
government and with the Iraqi people to build security and prosperity for
the future."

Hopefully, the weather at the launch site will hold.

The weather in the drop zone was just fine. (More appropriate, yes?)

[yield 2 the right]

How did you do that?

Might want to stick around MOgirl.

CNN just announced pictures were coming out anytime now. Of course they will edit to make them "viewable" to the general public.

What they mean by editing is to cut out any and all celebrations of Iraqis dancing in the streets. Bet they have some of the "reprisal" shootings if available.

She is an editor at NYT. Pure commie. She got pissed because I described Kwanzaa to her children and mine as a contrived holiday made up by a convicted rapist torturer, and an American Seditionist and Black Panther Member in 1964. I also said it can have no real african roots in culture, because their is no one african culture, and their hobby is either enslaving or killing rival tribes. Also, Kwanzaa has a corn ceremony, and nobody grew corn in africa until the white men brought it there.

She was THOROUGHLY offendeed, and told myy mother so. My mom asked her to refute anything I said, and she couldn't, so she went home!

Thank you.

Later on, when they were fixin' to string Smith up, he said something to the warden or one of the hangmen about not wanting to "mess himself." But I forget what the warden (or whomever) said in reply.

Bush has given a statement........testament to the Iraqi people to move on to give Saddam a fair trial..........it is an important milestone for Iraq..........on Fox.....many sacrifice lie ahead, many difficult choices remain......

[ohioWfan]

Statement from President Bush just read on CNN.

This would NOT be possible without the sacrifice of our troops.

THANK you, sir!

[pissant]

He was on the main conservative station here a couple years back. After listening to the cretin, I told the station I would tune them out forever if they kept him. 3 weeks later, he was gone.

[El Gato]

Saddam Hussein muttering, "F**kin Supreme Court! Al Gore wouldn't have done this to me."

And he was right. That's why God gave us George W. Bush.

[Rte66]

Don't know what a "motter" is, but that's what Cynthia McFadden on Nightline is asking the reporter in Baghdad whether Saddam will become. She's sad.

I think she means "martyr," because the reporter used that word in his reply. Now Cynthia is going into SoDamned's very sad childhood and how he was abused. Now into his heroic exploits becoming the head of state.

Barf. *Motter* this.

[BurbankKarl]

That isnt Rusty Humphries on right now

[section9]

Only one thing to say

Be Seeing You,

Chris

[ohioWfan]

Well GOOD for you...........AND your mother!

Truth triumphs! Good job!

[Fierce Allegiance]

The news heads say he is. I won't believe it until I see the pics.

I WANT VIDEO!

[ARealMothersSonForever]

I think that a man going to the gallows is a solemn occasion. It's about justice being served, about standing up to tyrants and expressing solidarity with the victims.

Well said. I agree.

Wow. We are getting all weepy-eyed. In the endeavor to get "Christ-like" and turn the other cheek, some have forgotten exactly who the final arbiter of Justice is. Every mortal being will die. Some even subscribe to the notion that Lucifer himself could be redeemed through the Atonement and Grace. Consider for a moment that this is an arrangement sanctified by the Almighty. Why should the celebration of other mortal beings bother you? If indeed you believe that the victims are also children of the Father.

[Yardstick]

Interesting new details from Nightline: Saddam was hung along with his brother in law (I didn't catch the name); also, prime minister Maliki was there to witness the execution.

freeper ghouls

Who gives you the right to point that pinky at freeper "ghouls"...? I am a proud and certified freeper ghoul having gotten permission to do so from a victimized Kurdish family to gloat at Sadaam's easy execution. He should have been hung upside down and stoned to death like the Italians did to Mussolini.

Then again non freeper ghouls like yourself simply display their voyeurism by hanging around this thread.

[Txsleuth]

He has only been on in this area for a couple of months..he took Alan Colmes' place...LOL

I am going to complain to the station tomorrow.

Not that I want Alan back...but I know they can find someone better than this Rusty idiot.
