By this time tomorrow, the odds are pretty good that Saddam Hussein will be dead.
Personally, I think that hanging the man is stupid. Not because I am opposed to the death penalty (I am), but because no matter what is said it will be seen by many to have been an act of the United States.
A dead Hussein is a martyr - one rotting in a jail cell somewhere will sooner or later be forgotten.
In the Middle East, martyrs are remembered. People will rally around their memory - and memory often becomes legend. It's damnably hard to kill legends...
A progressive voice shining light into the darkness of regressive politics. Pretty much anything will be fair game, and little will be held sacred.
