#33, I am glad I missed that by getting up late, I would have not been able to eat my Breakfast. There is something really disgusting about the Camera showing Timmah in an act that should be very private, and equally disgusting is he does not see what we see, or does not care how he looks and sounds in those waaay over exited moments. I wonder if he had a cigarette after the Show to top it off? YUKKKKKKKK!

Wow. Vilsack really *is* a RINO, ain't he? 

Actually, if he comes across as a RINO, that's a good thing...

If he hasn't decided what his answer is to that issue, what does that say about him?

That he was trying to play both sides of the fence and that Stephie just pushed him off of it *L*

I think it's not the lack of complaining about the hanging so much as the "wishing they would have waited until 'all the trials' were over. Also the lack of appeals.

I think the Democrats by and large saw what our justice system was at one time and hope it never reverts back to.

The appeals process is sometimes not about insuring justice but "billable hours".

I have a nephew who is a trial lawyer. I know.

I can confirm that. The luckiest among us will never have any dealings with the so-called justice system.

#40, you are right, Schumer knows that Pubbies like Lugar are not tough Guys, and they never will be as long as they keep getting elected with their Casper Milquetoast persona. They need a dose of angry faxes,letter,emails,and Phone calls to their offices to tell them that with their attitude we are very afraid for our Country, and AlQaeda,Pootie poot,and all the Isalmofascists are watching their chicken $hit behavior.

I am watching Krauthammer on Fox News Sunday. He is complaining that the trial was botched, Krauthammer felt "queasy" about the hanging and so forth.

I wonder how Krauthammer feels about the Nuremberg trials. Or the swift justice meted out to Ceauºescu and his wife. Or Mussolini. I think Krauthammer confuses justice with process. Everyone knew that Saddam was guilty of mass murder. We have the graves of 300,000 to prove it.

The US and the West forced the Iraqis to through the Kabuki dance of a trial, which resulted in giving Saddam and his supporters a platform for years. A number of lawyers and judges connected to the case were assassinated. Iraq would have been far better if Saddam had been summarily dispatched a few days after he was captured.

Interesting take! Just watched a few moments of the five person panel on MTP.(those of us in radio squirm a little with more than one guest,five is three more that are manageable,and gives "no one person any time at all to develop any kind of relevant thought" maybe that's why the panels on many shows are so pathetic)

Any way I was just wondering if E.J. Dionne is gay or is it just his Barney rubble demeanor or the pink shirt he is wearing!

Meanwhile Kate O' Bierne answers fat Tim's nebulous question of which pubbie will be in the lead by the end of 07 by saying "McCain".

Then she says she "doesn't think he will be the nominee."

A bit PC there Katie, she know how much we hate McCain but does not quite have the moxie to come out and tell it like it is.

Precisely. He also thinks that trials should have a purpose other than determining guilt. In that I think he is very wrong.

Late Edition with Blitz coming on here.

I'll watch a bit and see how "unelectable" P. Bush will be in '08.

I see Edwards has had that thing removed from his lip. Lizzie is stumbling all over the place today.

Wolfie ask Lieberman if this trial meets the standards you would have liked.

Lieberman answers, "YES, it does". Thank you Senator.

Same question to Specter and he answers, "I think it does".

Yeah, I bet he believes that the trial should have been used to educate the Iraqi people about Saddam's crimes and to serve as a catharsis for the victims. Just psyco-babble from the dear Dr. The Iraqis lived under Saddam's oppression for 25 years. They knew him better than us and were quite capable of giving him the justice he deserved. We should not have influenced the process.
