Life Begins at 5 o'clock 7 Posted February 13, 2006 I picture Saddam bowing out like Lee Harvey Oswald. I think he should fear all of the nightclub owners Udday abused when he was in power. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Life Begins at 5 o'clock 7 Posted February 13, 2006 Nah...as despots go, I'm much more of a Fulgencio Batista fan. I like my despots to have a touch of mafia affiliation for flavor. Brokering backroom deals with corrupt UN officials just doesn't do it for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tuber Mirum 125 Posted April 29, 2006 So he's getting on a bit. Daresay that fickle jade Rumsfeld doesn't send him a birthday card any more either. Perhaps it's time for Saddam to pull the "too ill to stand trial" card. I wonder if it's too late for him to strike up a friendship with Lady Thatcher?

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted May 16, 2006 What have the good people of Prospect done to deserve that? Frankly, if Saddam wandered in here and started his wild eyed ranting there'd be someone inking the word 'Suicide' on his death certificate the following morning.

Frankly, if Saddam wandered in here and started his wild eyed ranting there'd be someone inking the word 'Suicide' on his death certificate the following morning. Suicide by glassing? Novel, but effective, I should imagine. If I was on the jury, I'd accept it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The oddest thing thoiugh about them (other than that most of them, that is the vast majority were diminutive in structural stature.....short......) is that none of them had heard of Jim Jones and the Kool_Aid_Killings or Representative Leo Ryan who was also done in at the time.

Bennett_Cerf 2 Posted May 20, 2006 I need to say I find it somewhat insensitive to play upon the tragedies being visited upon a once great world leader, especially during his trial. Would it not behoove us all to wait until after a verdict has been rendered before we send him to the gallows? Just a thought, just a thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Octopus of Odstock 2,194 Posted May 21, 2006 Saddam's latest novel is published. I suppose he has enough time on his hands now to write more novels every year than even Barbara Cartland churned out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bennett_Cerf 2 Posted May 21, 2006 In response to your lovely query Tempus Fugit, I am Bennett Cerf. Well, clearly I am not truly he, however I have selected his name as tribute to my beloved Uncle. You see, Uncle loved watching What's My Line? a supremely popular television program which ran for several years until it was eventually cancelled due to an oversight by some young sex crazed executive who did not see the full value of a program such as this one was wherein panelists guessed occupations of visitors. As I indicated, Uncle enjoyed this program along with a snifter of brandy and a few chocolates in the evening, so, in end, I am honoring his memory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
