HANGING OUT WITH SADDAM
It's not my purpose here to engage in sophomoric discussion of the merits of capital punishment. Specifically with respect to the world as we find it today, what will it improve and what will it make better when the Iraqi's whack Saddam, presumably this weekend. Would it be better if they let some Kurds drop saran gas on him?
On the one hand, this gives them "closure" (they're still an occupied country but they're gonna have closure.....and I'm a Japanese Astronaut). On the other hand, there's the argument there's been enough killing and dying (Although, in the words of Doc Holliday, Saddam probably "needs Killin' ").
OK, I teed it up. Now you hit it out of the park. Your thoughts?
