WASHINGTON - Lawyers for Saddam Hussein have asked a U.S. judge to block his transfer to the custody of Iraqi officials poised to carry out his execution.
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.

It's such bitter irony to consider that the very people scrambling to save this brutal tyrant are the very same Libs who were overjoyed about starving Terri Schiavo to death.
What a twisted world.
