Saddam's last stand

I don't claim to be a political pundit; I just call things as I see them. And in following the trial of Saddam Hussein, let me sum up the whole thing in one sentence: this trial is a joke.

Is this a judicial court or a soap opera? There is more drama and lusty declarations within five minutes of this trial, then there is in one entire season of Desperate Housewives.

"That dress is an abomination of Allah!"

Around these parts, they'd throw your ass back in jail and declare a mistrial faster than you can say Boo.
