As if Saddam needs demonizing.

In the interest of justice and demonstrating the abuses of the former Baathist regime:
Q - What would Ramsey Clark say if he was dropped feet first into one of those shredding machines that used to be in vogue with Saddam, Uday and Qusay?
A - 'AAAAAIIIEEIEEEEEEEEARRRRGHHHhhhhhhhh.......*pffft*'
Whatzat Ramsey? You say you don't think you can defend Saddam anymore?
Looks good on ya!
Ummmmm - NO.
On the day that Democracy is born in Iraq, it is fitting that Ramsey Clark should be published in the New York Times. Hitler's own American Propaganda machine has not mellowed with time: rather, it has merely found new dictators to idolize. So it is with greatest pleasure that I point to Ramsey Clark and call him a f***ing tool.
This is my immortal paen to immoral peons for the day. Thank You.
Why wasn't this in ScrappleFace?
We had a party when Kuntzler died.
I want to have another party!
Comdrade Clark missed his chance at litigatory fame by a few decades: Hitler took the long walk off the short pier, and Stalin died his miserable death, possibly poisoned. But what a great act Clark could have performed, arguing in defense of these two! He could have flung all of his eloquence out to the world and tried to put the blame on FDR and Truman in defense of the former, and added Eisenhower to blame in defense of the latter.
Instead, he is left with the miserable butcher of Baghdad as a client. Clark is a role model, however, for the Michael Moore's, Ted Kennedy's and others who have the rot of evil and duplicity in their souls.
His appeal to international and US Constitutional law are truly bizarre especially when he tries to lay blame on the President of the United States. He has based his life in support of the worst human butchers and has turned his back on his country and the society that gave him the foundations of law. I shall always include him among the most famous scumbags of all time.
Tough Titty, Kitty, you ain't gonna get your way. Go cry in your prune juice.
Loony as ever. Somewhere out there is an alternate universe missing one of its own muses.
I don't know anything about international law but I learned everything I need to know about lawyers and justice when O.J. walked.
In a trial of Saddam and other former Iraqi officials, affirmative measures must be taken to prevent prejudice from affecting the conduct of the case and the final judgment of the court. This will be a major challenge. But nothing less is acceptable.
Dear Mr. Clark,
I believe that it is good for human beings to share prejudice against murderers. It is a natural thing in the real world which you, an American Aristocrat, are not part of.

IOW, Ramsey Clark believes that people around the world have been brainwashed into seeing a kind and gentle man as a brutal dictator. But Clark, owing to his superior insight, can see what the rest of us cannot. Saddam, who at last report was spending his days eating muffins, tending a garden, and writing poetry, is merely another victim of the Vast Bush Administration-FOX News Conspiracy. He's a saint in dictators clothing.
Get a grip, Ramsey. Saddam is a self-demonizing organism.
INTSUM - incredible
In case you missed this.
Sorry Ramsey. You and Saddam are just not that important anymore. Enjoy your trial and, when it's over, let the Iraqi's deal with this murderer the way they should.
Clark hasn't changed, still the sanctimonious ego monster he has been all these years. Still, I'm glad he's defending Saddam. They're made for one another. Write it on his tombstone.
never forget this guy was LBJ's Attorney General
An old adage comes to mind:
There is a TOILET SEAT for EVERY A..HOLE!!
