Alexandra WITT doing her dance of death

[UTUSN]

She's asking about how to "capitalize" on this and whether this "validates" to the U.S. military their mission.

She's been asking each guest, "You who have followed Saddam's (brutal reign) so closely, what does this mean to you?"

And,

"What kind of people would be crying over Saddam's execution?" And her chorus, "Reaction from pResident (Shrub)?: 'Good riddance.' "

Oooo, now she's asking, "Do we know what's going to happen to his BODY?" and "Do we have any more details about his final moments?"


And for variety, on the Duke case, "What are the chances the District Attorney will serve prison time?"

(Insert graphic from the TX Chainsaw Massacre here.)

1. The better question would be.....

what kind of people would be cheering and celebrating the execution of anyone.

2. "Does this help to justify the war in Iraq?" n/t

3. "You who have followed Saddam's (brutal reign) so closely, what does this mean to you?"

answer with more questions:

Did his hanging end terrorism? Did it end the war? Did his death bring peace and prosperity to Iraq? Have the various groups reconciled and are now singing their version of Kumbaya? What has his death accomplished in the larger picture of bush's war?

that Saddam did horrible things is not in question. He did and has been held accountable. However, we did not invade to bring Saddam to iraqi justice - we were told we invaded because of WMDs.

if Saddam was so vital to the war on terror - the war would have been over with his capture. It wasn't. Now he's dead, and we're still at war, and bush fiddles with his thumbs
