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.

Fox News has the smokin' hot Julie Banderas. No better way to cover an execution.

[higgmeister]

Saddam will be allowed to make a final statement if he wishes.

Otherwise known as talking until you are blue in the face.

[retrokitten]

LOL! Very good!

*Let's all go out to the lobby!*

[I see my hands]

Perry: When you hit the end of the rope... your muscles lose control. I'm afraid I'll mess myself.

Prison Guard: It's nothing to be ashamed of. They all do it.

Honestly, is it just me or does hanging him going to not do us any good?

[sodpoodle]

Does anybody else see that host on the sun?

Whattttttt?????

Not a hanging chad again?

[Churchillspirit]

I have been discussing with some friends what President Bush will say when the execution finally happens.

We all agree that the President will include the words May God have mercy on his soul.

Dubya is that kind of man.

[Jim Noble]

This is Saddam's cent jours moment.

All of his planning has been focused on today.

Will he die, or be President of Iraq?

I say, 65-35 he dies - but his chances of being Presidnet have never been better.

We'll see.

Fox: Saddam still in US custody.

Ok. I'm let down.

[A Citizen Reporter]

"Someone has probably already wrote a book about it."

My money is on Bob Woodward.

The day is Friday....

Friday is the Muslim sqabbath. They will wait till the first day of the week and that is Saturday 12 29. It is ir nearly is the last day of the Arab month as well. very soon perhaps sundaor or monday the new month begins. That is the Hajj month so I think it means Saddam dies on Saturday.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Hmmmm.... An Occurance at Tigris Bridge, catchy name for a story...

[Wild Irish Rogue]

" CNN's coverage right now is absolutely hysterical. They're in an absolute panic."

Last night, CNN had on a pathologist to discuss the mechanics of hanging-complete with a plastic cervical spine.
The anchor was very concerned with the potential suffering involved in a hanging.
The pathologist said there probably isn't much, but, the anchor was not placated.
I expect that tonight Brian Williams will give the mother of all send offs to Saddam .
He'll probably do the maudlin hat trick and tie in Ford, James Brown and Saddam in one roiling, overwrought soliloquy.

[Rte66]

Now you know why an NBC poll today voted GW Bush as the top *villain* of 2006! Top *hero,* too - but guess which made the headline.

FOX NEWS Breaking.........

Sadaam still in US custody. Could be a ruse?

[TomGuy]

Fox News has the smokin' hot Julie Banderas. No better way to cover an execution.

They had a guest commentator on a bit earlier. She was rambling so badly and incoherently, I changed the channel to CNN. Julie is a good host.

FoxNews says per Bush that Saddam is still in US custody.

[Right_in_Virginia]

I wonder why his attorney would confirm the transfer....
